I have read the book and found much of the information useful. This book is intended as a college textbook, but much of the content can be used with somewhat younger students, especially those in high school.

This bright, catchy book is full of great ideas to help students get organized, get the most from their classes, and get their education into high gear. With tons of tips, techniques, forms, outlines, charts, and other possibilities, every student is bound to find a dozen useful strategies to help him or herself become a better student. Though it's intended audience is probably high school and college students, younger PG students can gain a great deal from it, too. Becoming a Master Student covers everything from learning styles and note taking, to writing and test strategies, communications, and even including a chapter on your health (definitely aimed at college students).
