At the beginning of freshman year, I made the mistake of thinking I could keep my study habits from high school and still succeed academically. Luckily, MIT's first semester is pass/no record, so my adjustment to harder coursework (and the resulting C in one of my classes) did not negatively affect my GPA. There are so many resources on campus, and I learned to use tutoring sessions and office hours. I have been able to make a close group of friends with high standards, and we often study together. I believe that forming study groups, reading the textbooks, and maintaining a hobby/escape (mine is running) are essential to succeeding at MIT.
