How to Win at College: Simple Rules for Success from Star Students by Cal Newport
1.0
I am a big fan of Newport's ideas and research about studying and focus techniques, but this book just disappoints.
I was looking for some insightful ideas about how to study more efficiently, but instead I've got advice like "Never nap" or "Dress nicely for class". Not the kind of advice I was expecting for what the title promised.
I am rating it one star because of the book's minimalist approach to providing content that is straight to the point, and I didn't have to spend more time reading unnecessary filler words.
