Foreword There Will Be Quiz on This
This year marks another major milestone in the decade-long evolution of my How to Study Program the reissuance of new editions of the key volumes: How to Study itself, now in a fifth edition; fourth editions of Improve Your Memory, Improve Your Reading, Improve Your Writing, and "Ace" Any Test; and a second edition of Get Organized. (Take Notes, Manage Your Time, and Use Your Computer, though still available, were not revised this year.)
I am truly proud, though somewhat amazed, that How to Study itself is now well into its second decade. While all authors want to believe their books will last forever, most wind up in the remainder bin far sooner than we would ever like (or admit).

I cannot take very much credit for these books' longevity. Unfortunately, the state of affairs that existed in 1988 has not improved teachers are still underpaid, students are still undertaught, schools are still underfunded, and study skills are still underutilized. As a result, my How to Study Program is, for many of you, parents and students alike, the only source of information about the vital skills needed to succeed both in school and in life.
So Who Are You?
A number of you are students, not just the high school students I always thought were my readers, but also college students (a rousing plug for their high school preparation) and junior high school students (which says something far more positive about their motivation and eventual success).
Many of you reading this are adults. Some of you are returning to school, and some of you are long out of school, but if you could learn now the study skills your teachers never taught you, you would do better in your careers especially if you knew how to manage that group project or complete that report before the deadline.
All too many of you are parents with the same lament: "How do I get Jill to do better in school? She didn't even get the minimum score (400) on the SAT."
I want to briefly take the time to address every one of the audiences for this book and discuss some of the factors particular to each of you.
If You're a High School Student
You should be particularly comfortable with both the language and format of this book its relatively short sentences and paragraphs, occasionally humorous (hopefully) headings and subheadings, and a reasonable but certainly not outrageous vocabulary. I wrote it with you in mind!
