Time-management is essential for the success of a college student’s educational achievement. Managing time between a mix of courses can be a difficult task to tackle for freshman college students. Time management skills are necessary to overcome the stress and frustration of completing coursework on time. Different test performed show the effectiveness of managing time in relation to course grade point averages. Some of these tests include time-management questionnaires that ask student’s short-term, long-term goals how frequently they manage time for courses. The test scores are compiled into a database, analyzed, and placed into two tables for comparison of short-range, time attitudes and long-range planning.
