 This is the best one I have read Dec 13, 2005
By Acing college
I used this book this semester (it was given to me as a graduation gift) after doing pretty bad on my first round of tests. I used their 40 hour rule and it changed everything. I actually did pretty well this semester. I recommend this to all college students

Helped me raise my grades Dec 12, 2003
This book is great! It gives great advice that is easy to follow. I used their methods of reading textbooks better and actually can remember what I've read. It is written with lots of humor and so is easy to read (not preachy at all). I cannot say enough good things! This book has helped me get off to a good start in college. Every college students should read this book

 Not very Useful information Jul 24, 2005
By A. McPherson
"Gidgit"
I didn't like this book at all. The book was simple and it wasn't anything that most seniors don't already know. The book read like a seminar, you know how seminar use lists, ex. You need A, B & C to be rich. Well this book was more like, you need a pencil, paper and a brain to succeed in college. If you are already in college all of this information will be useless. There is a complete chapter on how to read a syllabus, duh. This book may very well be useless to many people, she spends most of the book talking about how different college is from H.S, but many highschoolers already know this from watching teen movies. The most valuable part of this book is, the note taking section. I would recommend How to Win at College, by Cal Newport. That book covers everything in this book and then 10 times more.
If you don't know what you want to major in, I suggest you go to myroad.com. It is a great tool, it tells you a lot about many professions, along with what it takes to get there, it also gives salaries. It's also a great guide to the road to college. It's information on colleges is more extensive than fastweb.
Definitely One of My Most Favorite Reads Apr 03, 2009
By Moe
Although I haven't finished reading College Rules!, I must say that the tips contained within the book are top notch. The thing that personally puts College Rules! on the map for me though, was the sheer volume of the information presented (around 300 pages, I think). My philosophy on college survival guides is that you're not going to find everything you're going to need in order to become the Alpha student - and that's okay because every one of these college survival books has something that you can take away from at the very least and therefore you shouldn't rely on any single guide to give you that spark. The chapters in College Rules! are easy reads and divided into easy to understand parts. The book's topics are pretty comprehensive (many chapters all having to deal with a different topic(s)). All that plus the authors deliver the info with a sense of humor. I got the book for around $.20, so I surely can't complain about the price. I bought the book to add to my list of college guides. I don't regret it.
