"Going off to post-secondary is exciting. But for many, getting a college education is also a source of stress. What courses should I take? What program should I get in to? Will I get a job after graduation? This book shows that the best preparation for success on the job, and in life more generally, is succeeding at college and university. Teamwork, meeting deadlines, overcoming challenges, writing well, and dealing with people are essential in any professional job. These same skills are also vital to become a strong student. This practical guide shows you how to master the critical skills and strategies for success at school, work, and in life."--From publisher.
