 IT'S THE SECOND BIGGEST INVESTMENT YOU’LL EVER MAKE AND 48% OF THE TIME YOU’LL LOSE ALL OF YOUR MONEY!

Dear parent or student of ANY KIND . . .

Whether you're a business professional, marketing expert, coach or even a parent of a freshman in high school, a graduating senior in college, or anyone in-between, your most significant stumbling blocks are almost always mental.

The exciting thing is that the mental skills necessary to overcome these problems and become a champion at whatever you choose is easy to understand.

But," cautions Dr. Gilbert, "you have to know how to practice them.

This is what Rob calls the mental practice, and it's why serious students of all ages and in all classes need a head coach.":

Your most significant financial investment in life is your house.

The second biggest investment is a higher education

And here’s the dirty little secret no one ever tells you about college . . .

only 52% of the students who start ever graduate.

Today, some schools are charging $50,000-$70,000 per year.

 

WHAT A TRAGEDY! TO INVEST ALL THAT TIME AND MONEY AND NOT COME AWAY WITH A DEGREE.

 

My name is Dr. Rob Gilbert and I’ve been in college since September, 1964.

That’s over 50 years.

First, I was an undergraduate student.

Then a graduate student.

And for the last 37 years I’ve been a professor at Montclair State University in New Jersey.

Along the way, I was in charge of a residence hall, directed orientation programs and worked as a wrestling coach.

Now I’m a professor.

Over the years, I’ve helped thousands of students overcome just about every problem and obstacle so that they could get their degrees.

I know every aspect of college life.

As a professor, I’ve been teaching students, BUT . . .

 

I’ve Also Been Studying Students.

 

I’ve discovered exactly what students should not do and exactly what they must do to enjoy massive success in high school and college.

What I offer also will work for just about any form of education and for any age.

It matters NOT weather you are going for a bachelors degree, a doctorate and even if you are trying to learn a new business or skill.

I’ve teamed up with Michael Senoff and together we’ve produced a complete 80 segment audio training program titled . . .“A Perfect Score.” The Complete Student High School and College Prep Training Course.

This program is not some boring classroom lecture.

Michael (who is one of the world’s greatest interviewers) put me under the gun and he pinned me down to get every student success strategy and every test-taking and study secret out of my 70-year young brain.

In addition, to my teaching, I’ve been a motivational speaker for over 30 years so we published this course with entertaining stories, anecdotes, games and humor.

Our job is to instruct and inspire you, your son or your daughter to graduate with honors!

If you, your son or daughter is in high school or going to college (or if they’re already in college or a working professional) this is the learning success system they'll never get anywhere else.

This just may be the most important course they ever take.

Among the things, you’ll learn on A PERFECT SCORE are...

* How to learning anything twice as fast and remember it forever.

* Why advanced learning is not grade 13.

* Why what works in high school may not work as well in college.

* The absolute best place to sit in any classroom

* Exactly how many hours you have to sleep to get better grades.

* A note-taking system that will insure great grades.

* How to get your professors to write outstanding letters of recommendations for you!

* The one trick to never use when taking multiple-choice exams.

* How to develop concentration skills of superstar athletes.

* When to pull an all-nighter and when definitely not.

* Why diligence always beats intelligence!

* The one book that President Clinton credits his presidency to.

* The number one “mentor” and why you need one now!

* The one thing you must do the night before each and every exam.

* The secret to getting others to like you.

* Sam’s can’t-miss game plan on how to get into medical school.

* How to go to graduate from school FOR FREE!!

1. Here’s How to Have the Hidden Advantage in High School, College, and Beyond

 

A lumberyard hires a group of mostly high school students to chop wood over the summer, and announces one day they’re going to give the person who chops the most wood an additional $250 cash.  

As soon as the whistle blows, they all start chopping like madmen, except for the one old guy in the group who strolls over to a cabin and takes a 15-minute break every hour before he does anything. The younger guys laugh because they know at least they’ve got that guy beat. The next day, when the winner is announced… and it’s the old guy, everyone bombards him with questions, wanting to know how he did it when he spent a fourth of every hour taking a nap. He said, “Oh, I wasn’t taking a nap. I was sharpening my ax.”

The people graduating summa cum laude aren’t the smartest in school. And the people who get the jobs aren’t the best qualified. These people just know the most about getting good grades and getting jobs. They know when and how to sharpen their ax. And in this course you’ll hear the techniques that will give you that kind of hidden advantage over everyone else, straight from a professor who sees it every day, Rob Gilbert PhD.

You’ll also hear…

  • A 10-second demonstration that shows the real truth about the “little voice” inside your head (it doesn’t always have your best interests at heart)  – here’s how to control it

  • A shocking confession from Rob about his own freshman year that proves “your past isn’t your future” – no matter where you are right now, you can succeed

  • A quick look at the kinds of goals you should set for yourself during this course because you can achieve more than you think, and you have more resources to help you too

  • The two different kinds of experiences in life -- (inexpensive experience and expensive experience), what that means, and the simple, but effective, equation to keep in mind while you listen to this course that will put everything in perspective

If you’ve ever watched the opening ceremonies of the Olympics when all the athletes come out, you’ve probably noticed just how different everyone is – in shape, size, nationality, gender, and what sport they compete in. But they all have one thing in common. Every single one of those top athletes has a coach, someone to show them the hidden advantages in their sport. No one succeeds on their own. And in this audio, you’ll hear how to find your hidden advantage too.

2. The Secret Road To High School And College Success: How To Be The World's Greatest Note Taker

 

Right now, Rob Gilbert is a professor of sports psychology who takes notes wherever he goes, but he remembers back when he was a sophomore in college and didn’t think taking notes or studying was worth it. That all changed when he took Organic Chemistry, a class he knew he needed to get an A or B in if he wanted to get into medical school.

But, rather than take notes, Rob decided he’d just sit in on another organic chemistry class so he could get the same information twice. He thought that by absorbing and reinforcing the information in that way, he’d get the grade he needed without ever having to crack open a notebook.

He failed the class, but he learned a huge lesson. It’s not enough to just show up. He says if you want to graduate, you have to take notes in class. And if your goal is to graduate with honors, you’ve got to take great notes by being actively engaged with the information.
But it’s not as hard as it sounds. The trick is to know what information from your class is important and to find ways to make learning it fun so your brain is engaged and entertained in the process.

And in this lesson, you’ll hear how to do that with note-taking strategies that show the secret road to success is usually found in your notebook.

You’ll also hear…

  • The clues professors give that help you differentiate when they’re saying something “pretty important” that will be on the next test, “especially important” that will be on the final, and the really, really important stuff that you need to know in order to pass the class
     
  • A simple system for labeling your notes so you separate all the important stuff using colors and symbols that make it fun for your brain while also cutting your study time in half
     
  • The real reason experts say you should review your notes within the first 24 hours after you’ve taken them
     
  • Why Rob says you have to “treat your notebook like your passport” and Rob’s go-to favorite notebook with a hard outer shell and numbered pages (like it was made for over-achievers)
     
  • The brain teaser 50% of all Harvard students get wrong – that shows just how fixated the brain can get on wrong information
     
  • Why Rob says you can have all the information in the world in your notebook but if you don’t access it and retain it, it’ll mean nothing – here’s a strategy that’ll help you do that
     
  • Rob says if he offered someone $1,000 to teach the material from his class to the one after theirs, they’d likely end up with some pretty detailed notes from his lecture.

Those are the kinds of notes you should always be taking, and the level of understanding you should be shooting for. But it’s easier than you think to get there, and in this audio you’ll hear the strategies that make it painless.

3.Memory Training Introduction

The Bad News: You Need A Great Memory To Succeed In School And The Good News Is: You Already Have One

 

 

Even though it may seem like other people have a natural gift for remembering things and a better memory than you do, they don’t. Remembering information is a skill that you can improve through training. And by developing this skill, you’ll be giving yourself a huge advantage over other students no matter what your major. So in this memory training section, you’ll learn the exercises and strategies that will help you do that.

4. Module One: Memory Strategies

 

Even though Rob is a successful professor now, he flunked out of college when he first started it. Obviously, he went back and finished, ending with a PhD and a nomination for Outstanding Alumnus from the same university he originally flunked out of. But he says the only difference between the “failing Rob” and the succeeding one was that he learned how to train and strengthen his memory. And in module one, you’ll hear all about the strategies he used to do that.

You’ll also hear…

  • The one simple formula for memory you’ll be using with every strategy that explains it all
  • The most accurate way to get information fast on most subjects… that’s surprisingly not Google
  • The importance of having a “mentor” during high school and college – so their hindsight becomes your foresight (and ideas for finding the right one for you)

 5. Module Two: How To Use Stories To Remember More

 

Believe it or not, you already have the ability to remember 29 random digits in three minutes, or the 13 original colonies, or the periodic table – you just need a strategy for doing it. And in this module, Rob shows you how to do this with stories. Studies show people remember stories more because they resonate and stick in the brain. But the trick is to make them unusual and different – to the point of being ridiculous. And in this audio, you’ll hear examples of how stories can help you learn complex information in very little time.

You’ll also hear...

  • Three quick exercises to try today that will train your brain to remember information about Mt. Fuji, random digits, and the 13 original colonies in seconds
  • Why it’s so important to link stories to real-life experiences, and examples of how to do that
  • The four things to add to your stories that will make them more memorable
  • Two great books on memory to check out that will strengthen these lessons even more

 6. Module Three: A Strategy For Remembering Lists Fast: Using Place-Numbers And Hooks

 

If you want a way to remember a list quickly and easily, one of the best techniques is to use hooks. Here’s an example. Think of a place you know very well, like your home. Create a “first spot” to use for things you want to remember (example: your front door) and so on (your second spot could be the couch by the front door). Now, set this familiar list to memory. These spots will be the hooks your brain is going to use to remember things. You’ll then hook the information you want to remember onto the spots you’ve set up. For example, if you want to remember a list that includes milk and frozen bread, you could picture opening the front door and having a huge tsunami of milk knocking you onto your sofa, but your sofa isn’t your sofa anymore, it’s turned into a giant loaf of frozen bread

And in this module, you’ll hear more about using places your brain easily identifies with so you can hook information to them. Just like with stories, the information is linked in ridiculous ways because brains usually notice and remember the unusual stuff in life.
You’ll also hear . . .

  • A little-known fact: most of the lists teachers want you to remember are already available online with a way for remembering them done for you too, but here’s how to hook them and make them a little more personal so your brain remembers them easier
     
  • The almost magical way songs can help you remember lists and information, and where to go to find ones already done for you
     
  • The real reason writing something over and over again doesn’t usually work for remembering stuff, and what does

7. Module Four: Strengthening Recall And Remembering Things Long Term

 

Wouldn’t it be nice to remember things from a class three years ago, instead of scratching your head and saying, “I think I used to know that?” You can. But you have to get rid of the common misconception that the brain fills to capacity so it naturally needs to “forget stuff” in order to remember new information. Rob says that doesn’t happen. Studies show the brain can hold 10 million volumes of books with 10,000 pages each. However, the brain can hit a point of fatigue when you’re learning, and that’s usually why people have a hard time recalling information. So in this module, you’ll hear techniques that will help lessen brain fatigue so you can bring things up when you want to.

You’ll also hear…

  • The one mistake almost every high school and college student makes when it comes to taking tests (because brains just don’t function right if you do this) and the three things you can do before a test that will help you recall information fast

  • The ACME way of remembering things long term (Action, Color, Me, Exaggerate) and how to use those to jolt your brain into remembering more

  • What it means to go from “unconscious competent” to “conscious competent” when it comes to learning – and how to do that

8. Module Five: The Simple Exercises That Boost Memory

 

One of the greatest things we have in life is our memory. But like most areas, if we’re not constantly strengthening it, it’ll get soft. So it’s important to exercise your memory and make it the strongest it can be. Fortunately, one of the quickest ways to do that might also be the easiest. Rob says there’s a huge difference between hearing and listening in life, and just recognizing when you’re not actively engaged in information will boost your memory right away. And in this audio, you’ll hear how, along with other tips and exercises to try.

You’ll also hear…

  • If you want a better memory, Rob says, try changing the second thing you do in the morning (the first is usually going to the bathroom, the second should always be this)

9. Module Six: Finding Strategies That Work For You

 

One of the students Rob worked with was a very tall kid on the basketball team at his college. On the first day of one of his classes, his professor looked out at the class and said, “If there are any athletes who think they’re going to get a free ride because they’re on the basketball team, they’re wrong.” It was very obvious who the professor was directing his comments to, and it put a fire under the kid’s feet. He made up his mind to get the best grade in the class, and he did. You can too. It’s all about finding your drive and the strategies that work for you in your life. And in this section, you’ll hear how to find those.

You’ll also hear…

  • All about famed memory expert Harry Lorayne, and the surprising motivation behind his success

  • Examples of the kind of memory tricks you see the masters doing (like knowing what day someone was born on just by hearing their birth date) – and the strategies behind that kind of “magic”

10. Module Seven: Magic Pills And Hidden Advantages

 

If you’re looking for a magic pill that will give you a massive advantage in school, having a good memory is it. You’ll be able to maximize your time better, giving you more free time and fun, while also helping you get at least a grade better than you would have otherwise. And in this module, you’ll hear all about it.

You’ll also hear…

  • Why personal memory hooks work better than anything you’ll find on the internet – and examples of creating the kinds that brains usually respond to

  • The real difference between working harder and working smarter and why brains don’t like those old “memory techniques”

  • A quick memory demonstration that shows how easy even the hardest information is to learn with the right technique

11. Module Eight: How To Be Velcro

 

Rob says when it comes to your future, don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Set your bar high, and don’t just say to yourself, “I hope I get through this.” Attitude is a huge part of learning, and your brain can either be like Teflon or like Velcro. In other words, you can have things roll right off your brain or you can have them stick. And in this module, you’ll hear how to keep your dreams in sight as you go through high school and college, and how to make things stick for the long run.

You’ll also hear . . .

  • The four stages of learning that everyone goes through: unconscious incompetent, conscious incompetent, consciously competent, unconsciously competent – what to expect in each and how to zip through them faster

  • A little-known fact: Professors know on the very first day of school who their best students are going to be. Here’s how to be one of them

  • The real reason you should never worry about looking nervous – believe it or not, it’s actually a good thing

  • 2 short stories that illustrate the way people (even the ones with the best of intentions) may try to take your dream away by forcing you into what they believe are “realistic goals” – and how to know, and hold onto, what you truly want

  • Rob says most students’ problem is that they have “MOOMBA” disease (my only obstacle may be attitude), how to recognize a negative attitude in yourself, and turn it around fast

So many people are afraid to do things. They live life, but their fear prevents them from truly being “alive.” As you develop your memory skills (and other skills talked about in these lessons), you’ll start to realize one of the byproducts is better self-esteem.

You can achieve anything you set your mind to. You just need the right strategies. And in these training modules, you’ll hear some that may help you do it.

12. The 10 Most-Common Myths About High School And College You Won’t Believe Aren’t Actually True

 

If you think high school or college is going to be a difficult journey that only the smartest (or most athletic) kids can get through without problems, you’re wrong. Rob says there’s actually no part of school you can’t handle – no difficult classes, or professors, or majors. School is only time consuming. If you put in the time, you’ll get the results you need. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about the common misconceptions like that one that most people have about high school and college, along with the truth that will not only get you on the right path but will also help you start off with a mindset for success.

You’ll also hear…

  • Put an end to huge myths like “you should only talk in class if you know the right answer” – and what you can learn from Pete Rose’s baseball record that shows you the right way to look at it

  • The most powerful thing you can do in high school and college that will prepare you for the real world (Hint: It’s what employers are really looking for, and it’s not grades or an Ivy League degree)

  • The one surprising thing you won’t be able to get through high school or college without – (and how to find it)

If you hold misconceptions about high school and college, they could keep you from succeeding, and you won’t even know why. That’s why it’s important to set your mind straight right from the start. And in this audio, you’ll hear how.

13. The Movies, Books, And Audios That Are So Fun You Won’t Believe They Actually Prepare You For Success

 

Having friends, faking confidence when you’re just not feeling it, getting into your dream school or landing your dream job – these are all skills you won’t learn in a classroom. But that doesn’t mean they’re not critical for success in high school, college, and beyond. So in this audio, you’ll hear three separate lists (books, audios, and movies) that will get you into the mindset for success with the extra skills you need for the long term.

You’ll also hear…

  • Want to get into an Ivy League school? Here’s a book that could help you do it

  • A rare fact: Just about everything in life is a negotiation (between you and your parents, your friends, etc.) – here’s an audio that’ll help you get more from each one

  • 10 videos on YouTube every college kid should watch

  • A very simple tactic for using body language to muster up courage whenever you need it

  • The one most-common (but most-important) book to carry around with you at all times

  • An audio that shows you the real secrets of success from a man who made a million… from selling cherries on the side of the road

  • A quick “beginner’s guide” to finding a niche, licensing products, and making a name for yourself

There’s more to success than the lessons you learn in a classroom. But fortunately, you can get a lot of these extra lessons in movies, books, and audio if you know where to look (no studying required). And in this audio, you’ll hear all about it.

 14. The Master Skill For Better Grades And A Better Social Life: Listening (And How To Improve It) 

 

If you want to get better grades and have more friends, listen up… literally. In other words, hearing isn’t enough. Hearing is just detecting sound vibrations. Listening is paying attention and knowing what’s being said. It’s the one success skill that can make an instant difference, but it’s also the one we never think about training.

So in this section, you’ll hear strategies for training your listening skills so you get the most out of even the most boring of classes. But as it turns out, listening is also key to having a great social life too.

14.1 Part One: The Secret To Getting More Done In Less Time

Your mind can only be in one of three places at a time – the past, the future, or the present. Listening is the active, “present” form of hearing. So, just keeping your mind focused and in the present is essential for success. But it can also be pretty hard to do if you’re not interested in the class or the material.

So in Part One, you’ll hear tips and tricks for snapping your brain back to the present, so you can retain more information and get more done in less time.

You’ll also hear…

  • The single little-used technique that instantly improves listening: “clearing your plate” – most anxiety is about the future, most guilt is about the past – clear your plate and you’ll be able to be in the present fast and easily, here’s how

  • A quick game that demonstrates the amount of concentration necessary to effectively listen – (it’s usually not the subject that matters, it’s how we respond to the subject)

  • Tricks for “faking it” when it comes to listening – your mind won’t know the difference

14.2 Part Two: The Secret To Getting People To Like You More

When it comes to charisma and having friends, here’s the secret most people don’t know about: people don’t like you because you’re interesting. People like you because you’re interested. Nodding, smiling, asking for others’ opinions – these are all ways to show you’re listening and interested.

And they instantly make you a more likeable person with your peers, your professors, and your future employers. And in Part Two, you’ll hear the simple tricks in life that show you’re worth getting to know.

You’ll also hear…

  • An almost-unknown way to add an instant gleam to your eye when you’re talking to someone that will make you look even more interested

  • How anyone can improve their listening skills with Rob’s LADDER acronym (Look at the other person, Ask questions, Don’t interrupt, Don’t change the subject, Empathize, and Respond) And how to put it into action so you get the most out of high school, college, and beyond

  • The real difference between empathy and sympathy (once you learn the difference, you’ll understand why empathy makes you a more relatable person)

  • The “pure magic” effect that showing you’re listening has on an interview, and the one thing you need to do to show it

When you’re in high school and college, listening is your job. Nothing turns an average student into a great student faster than that. This means you need to take listening seriously so that information sticks – you can’t be talking to the person next to you or texting when you need to be listening. It’s hard work, but this audio section will help you do it.

15. These Kids Will Do Anything To Learn A Skill: What It Means To Have The “Rage To Master”

 

Some kids are so driven to learn a skill or a sport, they get their parents to do some pretty extreme things so they can achieve their goals. One kid convinced his dad to close up his real estate business in Northern California and move south because he wanted to train with the Southern Californian kids who were beating him in swim meets. Another made his family drive into New York (from New Jersey) every day so he could take jiu-jitsu lessons. And in this brief audio, find out what the “rage to master” phenomenon is like, what to take from it, and who these famous kids are now.

16. The Pop Quiz That Could Change Your Life

 

Rob once got a call from a former student thanking him for helping him get a Rhodes Scholarship. Rob knew this kid had barely made it to Stanford for football, so he asked him how he did it. He told Rob that he sat down one day and wrote out all the things that made him a good athlete. His list included things like: he would go to football early and stay late, he paid attention and took notes, he asked questions if something wasn’t clear, he never missed a practice.

He then decided to see what would happen if he applied all those things to his academic classes. He ended up going on to Oxford then Yale, and now he’s the mayor of Newark. All it takes to succeed is desire and the right strategies.

And in this audio, you’ll hear a pop quiz that will help you look at things in a whole new light and realize you already have what it takes to go for the best in life too.

You’ll also hear…

  • An “almost magic” way to instantly change how you feel when you’re just not motivated to do something (you may want to save this trick for your most important days – it’s almost like hypnotizing yourself to do your best)

  • The 3 unexpected things college and high school teach you about yourself – and how to look at them in a way that leads to success

  • A little-known fact: You learn more from losing than you do from winning – here’s how successful people look at failures

  • The one thing that changed Sarah Blakely’s life: she was mediocre in high school and college – but she went on to create Spanx, and she credits this one thing for her success

The goal of this course isn’t to be “thought-provoking;” it’s to be change-provoking. We want you to send an email that says you went to med school or onto your dream job partly because of these audios. And in this section, you’ll hear a pop quiz that will help you know it’s never the wall that stops you in life. It’s how you approach the wall.

  17. Why You Should Never Settle For The Gold In Life

 

Here’s how the story goes: A boy in ancient Persia watched in amazement as a magician’s glowing finger turned things into gold. So he stayed after the act to meet the guy. When the magician saw the boy, he smiled. “I know what you want.” The magician’s finger lit to a bright orange as he changed a rock into gold and handed it to the boy. But the boy shook his head and pointed. “No. I want the magic finger.” Getting the end result will never be as powerful as knowing how you got there. Knowledge is what you come to high school and college for. But sometimes we make “getting the A” our main focus.

So in this audio, you’ll hear the most common ways we lose focus, jeopardize our own future, and lose sight of our main goals – and how to stay on track.

You’ll also hear…

  • The surprising reason one boy decided to apply for every scholarship possible – and what happened next

  • The most common “clumsy” ways we get in the way of our own success – and how to stop yourself from doing them

  • The simplest (yet most powerful) cure for laziness ever known

  • The one biggest mistake any college student can make, and how to avoid it

Rob says if you’re only problem is laziness, that’s actually a good thing. You can cure that in a second. The fire alarm goes off and everyone is running – you probably won’t feel too lazy to follow them. Laziness is an easy cure, but it’s one you have to think about. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about it and the other ways we lose focus – along with the strategies that will help you stay the course

18. The Weird Way Your Brain Can Get In The Way Of Your Success (And How To Stop It)

 

Believe it or not, one of the biggest problems jeopardizing success is usually one we don’t think about at all. It’s when we assume things. Although this seems harmless, it’s actually a natural tendency for the brain to fixate on what it believes is the right way, or the right answer. And it’s harder than you think to know when this is happening and how to stop it.

So in this audio, you’ll hear simple brain teasers that demonstrate just how easy it can be to focus on wrong information and let assumptions trip you up, along with some strategies on how to stop your brain from doing it, so you can change things around fast.

You’ll also hear…

  • Examples of why it’s absolutely vital to follow directions (especially on tests) and the one thing you should do for every one of them that will make sure you’re not assuming anything

  • Five riddles that will tease your brain and make you realize just how easy it is to get things wrong – and how to retrain your brain to think about information differently

  • The simple way magicians trick our brains in this similar assumption way so we don’t notice what’s really going on

It’s only human nature to fixate on something when you think you know the right answer. But if you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten. That’s why it’s important to have simple strategies in place to stop yourself in case you start assuming the path you’re on is the right one. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about them.

  19. Insider Secrets On How To Ace Tests (Straight From A Professor Who Makes Them)

 

As a professor, Rob says most students don’t realize just how hard it is for teachers to make tests. Professors are human. They take shortcuts. They rely on patterns. Just like their students, they sometimes wait until the last minute to do something…

So in this audio, you’ll hear tips and tricks about how tests are usually made that could give you an edge when you’re sitting in front of a question you don’t know on a test. But you’ll also hear strategies for preparing beforehand because the biggest thing you can do to ace a test happens long before you start taking it.

It’s not enough to be a “good chess player” and expect to win championships. You have to be able to play back the information you’ve absorbed when the stakes are high and you’re under pressure. And in this audio, you’ll hear how.

You’ll also hear…

* The shocking reason a convicted crack dealer made our Good Student Hall of Fame (Hint: It shows your past doesn’t predict your future – and it’s never too late to create goals and be successful)

* The one thing to tell your next study group to do that could turn it into a test-prep machine (this works for multiple choice and essay test prep)

* 15 words to look for on true/false questions that will give you a hint how to answer if you need to guess

* The magic phrase to say to yourself when you draw a blank (because of test pressure or you just plain forgot). If you tighten up, you’ll make things worse.

*Here’s the one thing to do instead that Rob considers his best piece of advice for taking tests

* Your step-by-step game plan for tackling multiple choice tests that work for small quizzes and up to the big ones like SATs and GREs

* How to eliminate answers (based on the way professors make up their tests) so you’re never just taking a stab in the dark – even on questions where you have no clue

* Steps to take ahead of time that helps with nerves before a big test

* The one word you should never use to describe your test or assignment – because it’ll make you even more nervous – and what to say to yourself instead

You would probably think it was ridiculous if you heard a great athlete started training the night before a big event. But that’s the way most people look at a school.

If you just start studying the night before a test, you may pass; you may even do really well, but eventually it’s going to catch up with you.

That’s not the way great students study. Just by changing up your study habits a little bit, you can do better than most the other students in your class (because everyone else is cramming).

And in this audio, you’ll hear a whole game plan that’ll help you master every test – from your smallest quizzes to the big college-entrance exams.

20. How To Find Your Hidden Reserves

 

In Rob’s class, he likes to bring someone up and have them jump as high as they possibly can. And to make sure he gets it right, he has them make a mark on the whiteboard with a marker as they’re jumping. It’s as high as they can go. Then, he puts a $20bill three inches higher than that mark and tells the person if they can reach it with the marker, they can have the money. He’s never had a student not be able to reach it. You have hidden reserves. And you can always achieve more than you think you can.

Rob says this demonstration always works because the first time someone jumps, they’re doing it without a specific goal in mind. There’s a huge amount of power in setting specific goals. And in this audio, you’ll hear how to set them, and how to use your hidden reserves to reach them every time.

You’ll also hear…

  • "Real-life” insight into success that you can learn from Ernest and Julio Gallo (the wine guys). These DIYers started out in business without knowing a thing about wine – and without money to hire an expert. Here’s how they did it

  • The one person you should get to know while in college because they are “better than Google” and can help with even your toughest assignments

  • The real reason most people go to their graves not knowing their true talent – here’s a quick self-assessment you can do that will make sure you’re not one of them

  • The truth behind advertising and why most of it is so damaging to self-worth

  • Exactly what it means when someone says “everybody can count how many seeds are in an apple, but no one can know how many apples are in a seed” and how to use that phrase to expand your capabilities and reach new heights

Sometimes changing your true potential starts with changing one simple phrase in your life. Stop saying, “I can’t” and start saying “I can’t… yet.” Have faith in your own abilities, learn the power of setting goals in your life, and know you have the hidden reserves it takes to achieve them. And in this audio, you’ll hear how.

Tell yourself you’re only going to do something for 15 minutes, and if you still don’t feel like doing it, you can quit.

But what usually happens is just the opposite. Fifteen minutes isn’t long, but it’s long enough to see it’s not so bad and it’s worth it. You’ll likely say, “Wow. I’ve made it this far in only 15 minutes. I can do 15 more.”

And in this audio, you’ll hear all about the technique, why it works, when to use it, and how.

You’ll also hear...

  • How to use this method to help stay on track the next time you’re on a diet

  • A little-known fact: This method can be used to kick addiction too. Here’s how

  • All about the HOPE acronym (Hold On Possibilities Exist) and how to use it to keep yourself going

This method works to melt resistance because 15 minutes isn’t long. Anyone can do almost anything for 15 minutes, but that’s also usually all it takes to get going and regain your momentum. And in this quick audio, you’ll hear all about it.

23. Take Control Of Your Anxiety By Learning The “Magic Skills” For Dealing With Stress

 

School can be stressful – exams, speeches, essays, failures… Everyone feels it, and it can seem pretty overwhelming at times. But the good news is there are techniques that work to reduce anxiety, and you don’t need pills to do it. You just need skills.

Rob says it’s all in the way you talk to yourself. Some people do their best when the pressure is on. Some people do their worst. So pressure in and of itself can’t be the problem. It’s the way you react to pressure. You are the one stressing you out. Once you know you have control over this, you can begin taking back that control with the techniques in this audio.

You’ll also hear…

  • The fastest known way to stress reduction (The Stress Reduction Pyramid): Can five words and one gigantic triangle really change the way you deal with stress forever?

  • The 6 steps to self-hypnosis that you can do anywhere (except probably driving) for instant calm

  • The big secret to relaxing: Change the way you describe it (You made yourself get up. You made yourself get dressed. You can’t make yourself stop stressing.) Here’s how to look at it instead

  • The trick for unlocking biochemicals in the brain – you don’t need pills to do it just these simple meditation techniques

  • Exactly what this equation means: “event + reaction = outcome,” and the powerful way you can use it to reduce stress fast

  • The little-known book you can read in about 5 minutes that will help with stress by teaching you how to stay in the present

At the end of every football game, there are usually only three crucial plays that mattered. They determined the outcome of the entire game. But here’s the thing – no one knows at the beginning of the game what those three plays are going to be.

24. 3 Techniques For Falling Asleep Fast

 

With the pressure of classes, tests, and grades bouncing around in your head, it’s no wonder many students find they have a hard time sleeping. The natural tendency is to jump on FaceBook or watch TV when that happens, but you’ve probably found those things only make falling asleep harder because now your brain is even more engaged and entertained.

Rob says you pretty much have to bore yourself to sleep. And in this audio, you’ll hear three techniques that will help speed that process along.

You’ll also hear…

  • A sneaky psychological technique that tricks the brain using the laws of recently and frequency into remembering more stuff (with less work) that you can use for your next exam

When it comes to falling asleep, you have to allow yourself to relax. And while it may seem like jumping on the computer or watching TV will do that, those activities actually make you more awake. Fortunately, there are proven techniques that work. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about them.

 25. How To Write The Kind Of In-Class Essays That Blow Teachers Away

 

If you want to be seen as a superstar student, you have to start building that reputation on day one. As soon as you walk through the door and take a seat, you should already be differentiating yourself from other students.

This includes things like showing up to class on time every day (even if they don’t take attendance because they will still notice), sitting in the front row, and staying focused.

And when it comes to essay tests, there are certain things you can do to differentiate yourself there as well. And in this audio, you’ll here it all – from what test graders are trained to look for to what pen will make your blue book stand out most.

You’ll also hear…

  • The painful lesson Rob learned the hard way when he was in college about the importance of neatness when it comes to writing in-class essays – he actually had to read his failing essay test to his professor while the guy graded it. Here’s what to take away from the story

  • Insider secrets on what makes a blue book stand out from the rest (in a good way): how many extras to bring, how to make it easier for your professors to read them, what to do if you make a mistake, the right way to emphasize things, and more

  • The two days you absolutely must show up for class: Put these on your calendar because professors like to give out important “final test” information on these two days knowing no one usually shows up so they want to reward the students that do

  • The five “P”s for taking essay tests (prior preparation prevents poor performance) and the one thing you can add to your next study group that will turn it into an essay-test-prep factory

  • The almost unknown trick for using your fingers to help you organize an essay (Rob goes so far as to mentally picture each finger as a different element)

  • The real reason Rob says everyone needs to take an extra minute to read the instructions twice (he cannot believe how many students in his classes get points taken off their essay tests because of something silly like these examples)

  • The only way that works to organize your time when it comes to timed-essay exams – you never want to suddenly look at the clock and have to scramble through your last essay. Here’s how to make sure that never happens to you

  • The one secret thing you can do ahead of time to make your essays shine whether it’s an in-class essay or a homework assignment (most kids will not think to do this and it makes professors impressed… to the point of taking you aside and asking you to be in their Master’s Program)

When it comes to being a superstar in college, you don’t have to reinvent the light bulb. And you won’t have to work any harder than anyone else. You just need to work smarter.

There are certain things you can do every day to prepare, stand out, and make a good impression with your essays and your college career. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about them.

26. How To Write Out-Of-Class Essays That Make Teachers Sit Up And Take Notice

 

You’ve probably never thought about this, but teachers get bored reading the same essays on the same topics they’ve handed out year after year. That’s why, if you take a fresh approach or you include something unusual in your bibliography, you’re going to stand out. They suddenly have a reason to sit up and take notice. This is what you want to shoot for, and it’s actually easier than you think.

Because professors read your bibliography closer than the rest of your paper, the biggest difference between in-class essays and out-of-class ones is going to be the intensity of your research.

But having an interesting bibliography isn’t hard – it could be as simple as a 5-minute phone call or taking an interesting angle on a topic. And in this audio, you’ll hear all the techniques you can use that will help you turn in the kind of essays that will get you noticed in the best way possible.

You'll also hear...

  • The easiest way to make your bibliography the highlight of your essay (Hint: approach an expert. Most are actually very approachable and easy to talk to; here’s how) – along with three other unusual resources most people don’t think to include in their essays that are right in front of you on the Internet

  • How to think like a journalist and use the “different angle” approach to make your next essay stand out (Hundreds of journalists covered JFK’s funeral, but only one thought to interview the grave digger. Years later, people still remember it)

  • The real reason you should never rely on spell checker to find all of your mistakes, and a proofreading trick to try on your next essay that will help you catch even the trickiest of them

One of Rob’s professors once called him into his office to discuss his essay, making Rob terrified that he’d accidentally plagiarized something. But the professor wanted to talk about the bibliography. He was very impressed Rob had gone the extra mile to interview an expert. Thing is, that interview only took one short phone call to the university where the expert worked.

It doesn’t take much to stand out in the right way if you know how. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about it.

31. Why Someone Else Got The Job And You Didn’t

 

The first few minutes of any interview are basically the same. The person interviewing you will decide in those minutes whether or not they like you. Clear and simple. The remaining time is spent confirming that decision. If they like you, they look for reasons why they like you. If they don’t, they look for reasons to confirm that.

35. Simple Steps For Dealing With Anxiety In An Interview: (Being Nervous Is Actually A Good Thing)

 

When it comes to interviewing, it’s okay to be nervous. They expect it. In fact, it’s really only inappropriate to try to be "cool."

36. An (Almost Sneaky) Psychological Technique That Will Create Instant Rapport In An Interview

 

As a professor, Rob notices that the students he has the most rapport with will subconsciously mimic his behavior in class. If he folds his arms or leans back, they will too.

39. The 4 Biggest Mistakes You Can Make In An Interview

 

Rob knows a college kid who answered an ad in the paper one summer, only to have the receptionist say, "Don’t bother.

40. How To Be The Person They Expect You To Be

 

We’ve all heard the saying, “Be yourself.” This does not apply to a job interview. Interviewing is not the time to say, “Well, I don’t really like wearing a suit” or “I’m not really the type of person who makes eye contact or smiles a lot…”

41. The Red Flags Every Interviewer Looks For And How To Avoid Them

 

Remember, during an interview, the interviewer isn’t looking for reasons why you’re so great. They’re looking for red flags so they can eliminate you from the competition.

And in this audio, you’ll hear the top red flags and taboo subjects interviewers look for and how to avoid them.

42. Ice Breakers And Casual Conversation: What To Say And What To Avoid

 

Rob was once called in for an interview with a magazine in New York where he was let into the office early because the woman he was interviewing with was busy. While waiting, he noticed a bunch of pictures of the woman with her dad – hiking, fishing, having fun. And Rob thought, "How sweet. I’m going to comment on those in the interview." So early on in the conversation, Rob says, "Your dad’s in amazing shape for his age." The woman replied, "That’s not my dad. That’s my boyfriend."

Needless to say, Rob didn’t get the job. There are do’s and don’ts when it comes to the casual conversations you make during a job interview. And in this section, you’ll hear all about them.

43. How To Answer Interview Questions

 

As soon as you sit down to an interview, one of the first things you’ll probably hear is, "So, tell me something about yourself." A lot of people think that means you need to give a quick biography or a rundown of the resume you sent. It actually means different things for different interviewers, so it’s always a good idea to just ask. "What specifically would you like to know?" If they leave it up to you to answer then start with the high school or college you went to.

And in this audio, you’ll hear more about the questions interviewers ask, and the specifics on how to answer them.

You’ll also hear…

  • Why you absolutely must be "reading" something relevant to your field and examples of what those books should be

Rob says how you answer questions is the most important part of interviewing because it’s going to show what kind of person you are.

Why Should We Hire You? Do You Have Any Questions For Us? Is There Anything Else You Want Us To Know?

 

Somewhere toward the end of the interview, there are three “big questions” you’re likely to hear. Many people think of them as the unimportant “wrap-up” questions. Don’t make that mistake.

45. The One Thing You Should Never Do in An Interview: Make The Company Feel “Lesser”

 

At some point in the interview process, you might be taken on a tour of the company, and you might not be impressed with everything you see. The offices could seem small, or the equipment might be out of date. No matter what they show you or how small the company is, never make them feel “lesser” about it. They want to hire a person who likes their company, not someone who seems to be putting them down. And in this audio, you’ll hear all about how important this is and the one thing to remember that will make sure you never do it.

46. The Secret To Group Interviews

 

Sometimes, you might be asked to do a group interview, meaning you’ll be interviewed in the same room with 4-5 other people in front of a committee. This can be especially stressful because you and your competition will be competing right in front of each other, side by side. But Rob says, the trick to winning this kind of competition is not to treat it like a competition.

Instead, look at it like a comedy club where you’re following a very funny comic. The audience already loves that guy, so putting him down isn’t going to win you any points. Compliment other people’s answers before you begin yours. In other words, pretend you’re not in a competitive situation and you’re happy everyone is doing well. It sounds counterintuitive, but in this audio, you’ll hear exactly how it’s done.

You’ll also hear…

48. The Single Most Important Thing To Do Before An Interview: (Practice, Practice, Practice) And How To Do It

 

A short, one-hour job interview could change your life. That’s why it’s so important to be prepared for it. Rob says it’s a lot like acting. Actors know their lines forwards and backwards so that when it comes time to say them, everything comes out naturally like it’s the first time they’re saying them. They research, prepare, and over-prepare for a performance that doesn’t seem to last long. That’s the kind of practicing you need to shoot for, no matter how good you are at winging it.  

The goal is to make the interview feel like a big conversation – so don’t forget to include the interviewer. Check in and ask questions during the conversation. And in this section, you’ll hear how to do that along with examples of the kind of prep-work and practice to aim for.

You’ll also hear…

  • The scary side of shooting for “perfection” and concrete examples of the kind of prep-work to aim for instead

When you’re called in for an interview, it usually means they’ve accepted you on many levels – you’re halfway there and you’ve got a shot. You just have to make sure no one out-interviews you. But if you listen and re-listen to this interview section and follow Rob’s advice, that won’t happen. And in this audio, you’ll hear everything you need to help you get there.

49. The Ultimate Guide to Living on Campus

 

If you think college is nothing more than four years of classes you need to take to graduate, you’re not really seeing the big picture. A few years from now, those classes aren’t going to matter much. You probably won’t even remember them. Your best experiences, best friends, and most important life skills are going to be found during the times in between those classes.  

That’s why Rob suggests you live on campus the first two years of college – and get involved. But once there, you’ll realize there are a lot of opportunities and choices to make. From choosing a fraternity or a sorority to dealing with a roommate from hell, you have more resources, options, and potential than you probably realize. And in this audio, you’ll get a rundown of what those things are and how to choose the ones that are right for you.

  • The second-best job on campus and how a lot of college kids are turning it into an instant job after they graduate

  • An “insider’s look” at studying abroad – why you should consider it, how much it costs, and the options you have

When it comes to campus life, the main thing is to get involved. Internships, clubs, studying abroad, working on campus, joining a fraternity or sorority – these are the places you’ll meet the people that’ll be in your wedding party. These are the places you’ll remember the most, have the most fun, and gain the skills you’ll take with you the rest of your life.

52. Is Laziness Holding You Back?

 

The biggest problem with laziness is – it seems to be the default-drive in life and we don’t even know it. When we tell ourselves things like "I just don’t have time to study" or "I can’t learn the guitar because I don’t have a natural ability for music," the truth is – we’re rationalizing laziness. We could practice more. We could wake up earlier. Most times, laziness is our biggest obstacle.

And in this audio, you’ll hear how to know if you’re letting laziness take over, how to stop it when you do, and the importance of being honest with yourself about it.

You’ll Also Hear…

  • Why Rob calls his final exam "the laziness exam" – all the crazy ways he tries to make sure every student gets an A on the test – and the shocking amount of people who actually do

  • The scary story of how Rob let laziness turn a $30 parking ticket (that takes two minutes to pay online) into getting his license suspended – and all the things he had to do, places he had to go, and money he had to spend in order to get it straightened out

You can have most anything you want in life, unless you stop yourself from having it. And one of the biggest ways we stop ourselves is by making excuses. That’s why the first step to overcoming laziness is being honest with yourself about it. And in this audio, you’ll learn how to recognize when you’re allowing your default-drive to take over and how to stop yourself so you can achieve your highest goals.

53. How to Condition Yourself To Be More Productive

 

A long time ago, circus trainers used to tie baby elephants to very strong chains. The elephants couldn’t break free from these chains no matter how hard they tried. So, after a while, they stopped trying. Workers could then put flimsy ropes on the elephants and they’d no longer try to escape. The elephants treated the flimsy rope like a strong chain. This is how conditioning works. It can happen for good or for bad, and unfortunately, most of us are conditioned to think we’re lazy. 

The good news is – we can recognize when we’re doing this, recondition our own laziness, and break free from our “chains.” And in this audio, you’ll hear how.

Rob has two students in his class with amazing talents. One is a world-class jiu-jitsu athlete. The other has currently memorized 20,000 digits of pi and is going for the world record. He brought both of them to the front of the class one day and asked them to write on the board how many hours a week they train for their specific goals. Without looking at each other’s answers, one wrote 27, the other 33.
