process'' for college-bound individuals. The course combines lecture materials with
fun activities, team projects, and individual assignments that illustrate how people

for managing their time; setting and achieving goals; improving memory and reading
comprehension; strengthening notetaking and general study skills; and becoming
better ''test takers.''
