Your Study Style

You have a structured, organized way of thinking. You are good at

making lists and charts (sequential thinking). You don’t always want to

know exactly what something is because you prefer to figure it out

yourself. You probably like algebra better than arithmetic. The mean￾ings in short stories, novels, or poems come easily to you.

Tips

• Make outlines to help align your thinking, as you review old mate￾rial and add new information.

• Practice exercises called syllogisms, such as “If A B, and B C,

then A C.”

• Solve logic puzzles, games, jigsaw puzzles, and riddles.

• Read mysteries or crime investigations and try to figure out the

answer.

• Enjoy how-things-work and cross-section books.

• Devise question-and-answer sessions with your study buddy or for

your study group.

• Enjoy the Internet and multiple software programs.

3. Visual/Spatial Intelligence:

mind?

• retrieve information through images and pictures you have stored

earlier?

space?

• like to look at or create drawings, sculptures, or crafts?

• get called a “daydreamer”?
