For immediate release Austin, Texas/4-4-09 "College graduates will face greater difficulty finding jobs in the next few years, but will do better than most without a college education" says Raymond Gerson, professor of college success courses at Austin Community College.

According to Gerson, "Research data consistently shows that college graduates earn more, face less unemployment, and have more career choices than those who are less educated. Being successful in college will be more important because employers are highly selective when hiring during this economic crisis."

"Students who prepare for high demand jobs and who excel in college will have the best opportunities" says professor Gerson. "The problem" according Gerson is that many students are coming to college unprepared to succeed because they have not been taught how to study and learn. They lack self-knowledge, awareness of their strengths, and how to use them."

Here are a few study tips by Professor Gerson:

* Discover your best learning styles and types of intelligence

* Pause and ask yourself questions while you read that are implied in the text

* Write brief summaries of the main ideas in your own words in the margin of your textbook

* Study in short periods followed by small breaks

* Anticipate test questions. Create and give yourself practice quizzes before taking the actual test
