This article is about necessary skill for student college survival such as time management, goal setting, and art of mastery. Students who are freshmen step into college want to learn new experience for their own success. However, they might have a problem in their new world that they have to survive in college especially in their second semester of their first year. Many students suffer the pressure from new things which are difficult classes, diverse friends and managing their time. Student counselor John Reid said “Students who are first-time freshmen have the highest dropout rate than any other cohort on college campuses," This is true that might be hard to reach at the beginning. For example, at the first year of university, I had a hard time to learn many new things. Classes were more difficult than in high school, and University was my unfamiliar environment. It also was such a hard time for them to manage appropriate time for working and playing by themselves. There is another factor that makes such a hard time for students. Students who have a problem with their family and friends can be affected their performance in relationship through communication. For instance, when they have a bad or sad feeling, they will be crying and frustrated, so they can’t sleep well. Then it will affect other things. To sum up, there are many factors that can affect freshmen student performance in college.
