還記得幾年前上高中的時(shí)候，每天把發(fā)條上的足夠緊，不給自己任何的空閑時(shí)間，每天想的就是努力學(xué)習(xí)，努力、努力、再努力，這一切的努力不就是想讓自己能夠考上大學(xué)，實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢想嗎，我感覺大學(xué)的校門時(shí)那樣的遙遠(yuǎn)，我感覺壓力很大。不過一切都已經(jīng)明了了，我已經(jīng)通過高考考上了大學(xué)，這在我收到大學(xué)錄取通知書的時(shí)候，我才意識到，我是一名大學(xué)生了，這簡直是一場夢一樣，我多年的刻苦努力換來的就是這么一張通知書，而這張通知書改變了多少人的命運(yùn)啊。進(jìn)入高等學(xué)府深造，成為一名跨世紀(jì)大學(xué)生，這是我兒時(shí)以來的愿望和夢想。在跨入大學(xué)校門的那一刻，我兒時(shí)的理想終于實(shí)現(xiàn)了，也圓了我的大學(xué)夢。大學(xué)里濃厚的文化氣息和廣闊的自由天地讓我有了更好的發(fā)展機(jī)會和空間。我就象一塊渴水的海綿，貪婪地吸收著知識；就象一只久困的鴿子，在廣闊的天空中自由飛翔。正是從那時(shí)起，我便立志要成為一名思想上進(jìn)，政治合格，素質(zhì)過硬，在德智體諸方面全面發(fā)展的合格大學(xué)生。我不斷朝著這個(gè)目標(biāo)努力學(xué)習(xí)，踏實(shí)工作，努力提高自身素質(zhì)，爭當(dāng)一名德、智、體全面發(fā)展的合格大學(xué)生。今年是我進(jìn)入大學(xué)的第三年。兩年來，在各級領(lǐng)導(dǎo)和同學(xué)們的關(guān)心、幫助下，通過自身不斷努力，各方面均取得一定的進(jìn)步?；仡欉@兩年來的大學(xué)生活，深感本人在各個(gè)方面都得到鍛煉和發(fā)展，特別是在黨、團(tuán)組織領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的幫助下，本人的學(xué)習(xí)成績、政治理論水平等都有了進(jìn)一步的提高。我有了寫一下這兩年個(gè)人生活總結(jié)的想法：一、日常生活方面：盡量與舍友、同班同學(xué)搞好關(guān)系。結(jié)識一些高年級的師哥師姐，向他們請教學(xué)習(xí)、工作、生活上的問題。廣交朋友，朋友遍布各院系、各省份。二、思想政治方面：一個(gè)人無論成功與否，他首先必須是一個(gè)思想正派的人，一個(gè)愛國的人。我深深地意識到：要成為一名合格的大學(xué)生，必須從培養(yǎng)和提高自身思想素質(zhì)開始。只有樹立了正確的人生觀、

價(jià)值觀，樹立了為人民服務(wù)，為社會主義事業(yè)奮斗終身的遠(yuǎn)大志向，才能為大學(xué)四年以及今后的學(xué)習(xí)工作指明方向、提供動力。因此，我在剛?cè)雽W(xué)不久便向敬愛的黨組織鄭重遞交了入黨申請書，并從那時(shí)起，我就以一名的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)嚴(yán)格要求自己，以的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)規(guī)范自己的學(xué)習(xí)和工作。針對自己思想政治素質(zhì)和理論水平不高的問題，我在日常的學(xué)習(xí)工作中就不斷認(rèn)真學(xué)習(xí)黨的各項(xiàng)方針政策，研讀各種理論在實(shí)踐中運(yùn)用的原理，并通過參加華僑大學(xué)黨校和系定期的黨章學(xué)習(xí)小組的學(xué)習(xí)，使自己的政治理論水平有了顯著提高，從中繼承做得好的方面改進(jìn)不足的地方，使自己回顧走過的路，也更是為了看清將來要走的路。三、知識學(xué)習(xí)方面：學(xué)習(xí)刻苦，態(tài)度認(rèn)真，只是在學(xué)習(xí)方法和能力上有些欠缺，在今后的學(xué)習(xí)中需要改進(jìn)。作為21世紀(jì)的接班人，新世紀(jì)在悄悄降臨之際也給我們帶來了新的要求，經(jīng)濟(jì)日新月異，科技翻天覆地，所以更多、更快、更廣的吸收新知識即成了放在我們面前必須解決的一個(gè)問題，我通過這兩年的大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)，對于專業(yè)方向、節(jié)奏、程度、難易度等等，也有所了解，投入了不少時(shí)間再學(xué)習(xí)上，每次考試也發(fā)揮的可以。在大學(xué)的后兩年中，對學(xué)習(xí)任務(wù)有了更高的要求，在這樣的關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻，我會加倍努力學(xué)習(xí)，把更好的成績帶進(jìn)大四。所以，如果說這是對我的壓力，到不如說是對我的考驗(yàn)，我一定會全力以赴。四、社會實(shí)踐能力方面：社會實(shí)踐能力有了很大提高。大學(xué)中，我參加了不少的社會實(shí)踐活動，從中繼承做得好的方面改進(jìn)不足的地方，使自己回顧走過的路，也更是為了看清將來要走的路。我的學(xué)習(xí)成績不是非常好，但我卻在學(xué)習(xí)的過程中收獲了很多。首先是我端正了學(xué)習(xí)態(tài)度。在我考進(jìn)大學(xué)時(shí)，腦子里想的是好好放松從重壓下解放出來的自己，然而很快我就明白了，大學(xué)仍需努力認(rèn)真的學(xué)習(xí)?？吹街車耐瑢W(xué)們拼命的學(xué)習(xí)，我也打消了初衷，開始大學(xué)的學(xué)習(xí)旅程。其次是極大程度的提高了自己的自學(xué)能力。以上是我對大學(xué)生活個(gè)人總結(jié)，我將結(jié)合這個(gè)小結(jié)回顧過去，確定未來的發(fā)展目標(biāo)，我對未來充滿信心。過去的兩年，是不斷學(xué)習(xí)、不斷充實(shí)的兩年，是積極探索、逐步成熟的兩年。由于參加黨校的時(shí)間不長，政治思想覺悟還有待提高；對大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)的規(guī)律仍需進(jìn)一步適應(yīng)，方法也尚需改進(jìn)；在學(xué)生會

的工作中，也要彌補(bǔ)不足，盡最大的努力為同學(xué)們服務(wù)。新的學(xué)期里，我一定認(rèn)真要向黨員同學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)，戒驕戒躁、勤勉敬業(yè)，在平凡的工作和學(xué)習(xí)中取得更大的成績。我在大學(xué)生活的兩年里，已經(jīng)把我在大學(xué)要做的事情都知道的差不多了，我知道自己該干什么，不該干什么了，我也已經(jīng)明確了自己生活學(xué)習(xí)的方向了，我可以做的更好，我也相信，明天的我還是要繼續(xù)的生活工作下去，我還是會抱著一腔熱忱來學(xué)習(xí)生活。在大學(xué)里，最重要的事情就是要學(xué)會自控，沒有老師來時(shí)刻盯著你的生活，只有你自己不斷的努力工作下去，才是正確的，不能夠久這樣下去了。大學(xué)課程少，學(xué)習(xí)的東西也不是很多，這就是需要自己不斷的努力了。我相信通過我大學(xué)的努力工作，在我畢業(yè)的時(shí)候，我會找到一份好工作，實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的人生價(jià)值的，我相信未來的社會中會有屬于自己的一片天空的！與本篇大三學(xué)生大學(xué)生活個(gè)人總結(jié)內(nèi)容有關(guān)的：計(jì)劃局工作人員個(gè)人總結(jié)大學(xué)生對大學(xué)課程的個(gè)人總結(jié)2012年信貸員工作個(gè)人總結(jié)大學(xué)生科創(chuàng)中心工作個(gè)人總結(jié)銀行儲蓄員工作個(gè)人總結(jié)2012年鎮(zhèn)長助理工作個(gè)人總結(jié)2012年新教師工作個(gè)人總結(jié)2012年公司職員工作個(gè)人總結(jié)到個(gè)人工作總結(jié)欄目查看更多內(nèi)容>>

究其原因，多數(shù)是由于在學(xué)習(xí)中不求甚解，不注意總結(jié)積累所致。那么，該怎么辦呢？實(shí)踐證明，自編一本“易錯(cuò)題集”是避免做題一錯(cuò)再錯(cuò)的最好辦法。錯(cuò)題本的復(fù)習(xí)方法：1、每周把該周錯(cuò)題本中記錄的題目快速瀏覽一遍；2、每月把該月錯(cuò)題本中記錄的題目再快速瀏覽一遍；3、每個(gè)季度把錯(cuò)題本中三個(gè)月記錄的題目再快速瀏覽一遍；4、大考前把該錯(cuò)題本中的所有題目認(rèn)真復(fù)習(xí)一遍，確保題不二錯(cuò)
