Krishna

As a campaign organizer and a big sister to two college students, I have come to believe that it is far better to ask students what kind of world problems they would like to solve, rather than what they want to be when they grow up. The former prompts the student to think about their passion and contemplate the many ways to work toward it, while the latter is more restrictive. I believe that teaching someone how to learn (how to approach a question with a logical, problem-solving mindset) is more important than rote memorization. Finally, there are some tools I have found effective in sticking to a study schedule. For example, instead of listing everything on a to-do list, schedule study time as an appointment.
