In college, the textbook isn’t just “extra reading”, it’s a central part of how successful students learn. Skipping it can mean falling behind fast.
In this mini-episode, we explain:
* Why textbooks are key to the college learning cycle: before, during, and after class
* What to do when professors say the book “might not be necessary”
* Creative ways to access books affordably: borrow, rent, share, or use the library
* How to avoid scrambling by setting a textbook plan before Week 1 ends
A smart textbook strategy can make the difference between staying on track and playing catch-up all semester.
60% of first-year college students are underprepared to succeed. Make sure your student is prepared with LAUNCH, a flexible, summer-before-college program that equips students with the learning, mindset, and productivity skills they need to thrive—starting from Day 1.
