Synopsis: THIS BOOK IS NOT ABOUT STUDY SKILLS. IT'S ABOUT GETTING A GOOD JOB AFTER YOU GRADUATE. The #1 reason most students give for attending college is "to get a good job." The skills outlined in Making Your Mark will help you graduate from college. But more important, these skills will see you through your entire career. It's kind of like a 2-for-1 deal. The college success skills you develop are the same employment skills you'll need for your career: good work habits, efficient time management, and an organized system for getting your work done at a high standard. If you approach your college years as professional development for your career, you'll be well prepared for the workplace, and you'll come as close as it gets to guaranteeing yourself a good job upon graduation.
