College Survival: A Crash Course for Students By Students.

Macmillan, 1996. Fourth Edition. Trade Paperback. Like New. Great book! No spine creases & mild shelf wear on cover. Clean pages, no writing or markings in text. "Amazon: "I'm pretty much your typical college freshman-to-be; I'm scared, excited, and don't really know what to expect my first year away from home. I have read other college advice books, and have found this to be one of the more helpful books in easing some of my first year fears. What made this book stand out from other college advice books was the fact that the advice came from college students themselves, the so called experts in the field. The advice was solid and covered a broad range of topics including what to bring with you to college, freshman orientation, the do's and don'ts of picking out a schedule, financial matters, and even how to do laundry. Above all else, this was a very easy and entertaining book to read. This book provided the answers that I was looking for; I feel much more confident and ready about going off to college now." " Fantastic Book with great advice! I am a residence life advisor at University of Texas and for years I've been recommending this book to incoming freshman, especially those with a lot of questions and concerns about college life. Students can relate to it because it was written by a team of students. Thank you Greg Gottesman for revising it again. There is another book that I wish every parent would buy for their children going to college, and that's Major In Success by Patrick Combs. I recommend getting College Survival to help your son or daughter make the adjustment, and Major in Success to help them standout.""
