To help your families with high school students--especially those who are college-bound--with their Study Skills and college planning, here are links and book titles, recommended by members of National Association for College Admissions Counseling. Add these to the resources from your own high school counselors. You might also want to add them to College Search and Reference or Study Skills pages of your own websites.
