Gain a Better Understanding of the Subject Better - There is no argument that taking time to read, learn, and study a subject or theory will lead to a greater understanding of that particular subject.
Get Better Grades - Some students are bound to put off studying, homework, papers, and projects. A study group can help solidify and clarify course materials, leading to more promising classroom experiences, and potentially a better GPA.
Gain Well-Rounded Insight - By having each group member read, study, and summarize the most important points in a chapter, other students in the group gain the capability of understanding chapters at a deeper level.
Maintain Personal Responsibilities - Study groups should allow each student to share ideas and thoughts about a particular subject. Depending on the group’s dynamic, students may even give small presentations that can be highly beneficial to the learning process
Gain Team Experience - When the time comes to look for a job, workplaces might ask about one’s experience working in teams. By forming and participating in a regular study group, prospective employees will have ample experience from which to draw answers, stories, and more during an interview and in the workplace.
Combat Procrastination and Achieving More - Not surprisingly, the desire to procrastinate can be much stronger when we are alone. Rather than falling to the personal pressure of procrastination, students can surround themselves with motivated, serious students
Sharpen Problem-Solving Skills - The idea of placing three to five college students in one room to study might not sound promising on the surface because we think about the great potential of disagreements, arguments, and distractions that can occur.
Why We Should Study in Groups - Forming a group with peers that live nearby means that students don’t have to commute all the way to school to study; this is especially helpful for those with longer commutes, and it can also be useful for online students.
