Description Problem : Balancing the hours spent for studying for four classes. Hypothesis: I think I spend to many hours studying for math and statistics and that leads me to get behind in the other two classes that I have. For four weeks now I have gathered some data about how many hours I spend studying for each class. I also have recorded some data about where I have done all my studying at.

11. Analysis My findings in my project measure exactly up to my expectation. I do tend to study more for my math and statistic classes. I found that the variation of study hours for math and statistics classes is really excessive. One factor that contributes to the excessive hours I spend studying for statistics and math classes is that I tend to focus on the classes I have the most interest in and the classes I struggle the most in. I also found in my findings that I study at home a lot vs. the library,car or other places.

12. Conclusion/Summary I believe I should try to study a bit more for my biology and my political science classes. I also think it’s better to study in the library vs. at home because there is less distractions in the library. Hopefully because of this project I can figure a way to distribute more hours for the classes I spend the least time on.

13. Quote of the Day! “My belief, based on experience, is that 99% of the students who enter engineering have the brain power to graduate. Those who fail to graduate because of non-outside forces (eg. health, finances, personal problems, etc.) usually do so because of poor strategy, planning, study habits and methods.”Stated by professor RosenKrantz.
