According to a recent study, students who had study goals performed better than those who did not. Somehow, setting goals helped them achieve more in their academics. What are study goals and how do they help the student? How do you set study goals?

Understanding why study goals are important

Setting goals is a vital step in achieving success in life. A goal is something that you aim for, something that you reach for, and something that you work for. A goal helps you set a mark and helps assess your progress as you go along. Without a goal, you will not have a very clear idea of where to go and which steps to take.

Study goals simply reflect your aspirations for your studies or the things that you are hoping to achieve in your studies. They serve as an excellent tool to keep you focused in your academics. /? 220510" Student Goal Setting Research

Setting your study goals

There are two kinds of goals: long-term and short-term. A long-term goal, as the name suggests, can be achieved over a longer period of time. A short-term goal can be accomplished in a shorter period time and is aligned with or is intended to result in realizing the long-term goal.

For example, you can set a long-term study goal of finishing your degree in four years. In order to reach that goal, you set short-term goals like setting aside a number of hours each day to study or passing the weekly quizzes or getting good grades in your exams.

Your study goals should be measurable. In other words, you need to provide parameters by which your goals can be gauged. For example, you can say, "In the next exam, I should aim for this grade," or "By the end of this week, I should finish writing my paper." /? 220510" Student Goal Setting Research
