This one took me a while to learn.
University readings can pile up quickly. Sometimes you will have multiple articles, chapters and resources to work through before your next class.
Learning how to identify the important information is a skill in itself.
Look at the learning outcomes, lecture material and assessment requirements first. Then work out which readings are most relevant and focus your energy there.
University isn't about memorising every single sentence you read. It's about learning how to engage with information, think critically and apply what you've learnt.
