About this title

Synopsis

Making Your Mark: Develop the Motivation and Skills to Achieve High-Performance College and Career Success, 9th edition, is our best-selling college success book, which is based on building student confidence, helping students identify the strengths they already have, and helping them add to their academic and professional skill set. The skills they need to be successful in their academic life are the same ones that will see them through their entire career: good work habits, efficient time management, and an organized system for getting their work done at a high standard. When students make that connection, they begin to make a more solid commitment to their education. The upbeat, interactive exercises in Making Your Mark take students through the process of seeing the value of an education; developing a college and career plan; developing academic and employability skills; and developing a high-performance mindset that will help them be successful at college and throughout their entire career. The exercises are unique and engaging, and offer new perspectives on how to be successful. They also encourage students to create the relationships that are essential to their success.
