USER FEEDBACK
Below are some comments, listed in order of the most recent to the earliest, from users of the original versions of Monster Learning Skills, Study Skills for School Success 1.0 and 2.0, and now Catalyst: Dynamically Balanced Study Skills, which is a cumulative update to all previous versions.
"I've used this now for two semesters. It is one of the best tools I have ever seen. From using it, I understand more, I have mastered what it takes to hone in on important materials, pay attention in class and not be distracted so easily, and do MUCH, MUCH better on tests and assignments. You have written it in a way that makes so much sense, and get to the point right away. Worth much more than you charge."
Great program. It won't necessarily make you an A student, but it does explain what you must do in order to improve. You are very honest in your claims. Thanks."
