The book is based on his years of teaching learning and study skills at the University of Victoria in Canada. He has given presentations, workshops and classes to thousands of students in many countries and is an expert on student success.

Kevin’s day job for many years was as a student service professional in higher education. He has been Director of Admissions, Registrar and, most recently, Dean of Student Services.

What that means for you is Kevin is personally road-testing these study strategies and techniques every day. Not only is every thing he writes about backed-up by the latest research in brain science and learning theory, but he has verified that it works in his own studying.

This book covers all the main principles that you need for succeed on study: time management, motivation, mnemonic technics, how to prepare the material, how to prepare the local you're using for study, etc. It's a "must have" one. Even better than others memory books that only focus on the memory. Don't waste your time with other books. Go direct to the point!

I'm a returning college student after working for about 7 years, and all I can say is that I wish I would have read this book a long, long time ago- before high school even. Parents, if you're looking for some assistance with a struggling teenager or college student- this book has some GREAT advice that contradicts many of the commonly accepted studying practices. I personally have seen a dramatic difference in my retention by employing some of these techniques. For the money (less than $15) it is definitely worth every penny.

If anyone is struggling with academia in any subject this is a great book to buy! It gives the reader a strong foundation and necessary skills to keep up with the constant pressures of school & getting the most out of your study time. I was skeptical at first but when I implemented the suggestions outlined in the book my study habits drastically improved along with my grades. If anyone is looking for a better way to study do not hesitate to purchase this miracle on manuscript.
