The practice of researching into any issue is the sure-way to success for the present and future generations. For without following laid-down steps in addressing issues, we will merely be groping in the dark while attempting to solve any problem. This book is a well thought-out approach in this direction and a must-read.

I found Patricia’s book “The Successful Student” very interesting, up to date and informative. It is very beneficial especially for all formal learners and teachers in a learning process and career planning. It discusses internal and external factors that affect a learning process and their solution. It also develops confidence in students to achieve their goals. At least it encourages me in my studies.  

-Sadia Aleem, University of Bedfordshire, Department of Psychology Research Student, LU1 3JU, UK 

Patricia Ikiriko’s book “The Successful Student” is primarily a study guide aimed at undergraduate students, students aspiring to gain admission into the tertiary institutions, and every major stakeholder who has vested interest in improving the academic achievement of the present generation. It provides basic insight on some hidden psychological factors such as fear, anxiety, low self-esteem, poor self-efficacy and external locus of control which militate against students’ academic achievement and proffers realistic techniques such as  

SMARTS, BREAKS, and ACADEMIC SUCCESS TIPS among others as relevant solutions to combat these psychological maladies. Decision + Determination + Hard work = Distinction, is a great formulae of success to internalize.

 Young people often need some guidance which their parents and family members may not be able to provide in a structured form. “Young and influential” have a comprehensive step by step guide which distinguishes itself from others by its innovative method, clear layout and motivating language. This small but dense book full of useful and practicable tips will prove a valuable companion to those young people who wish to accomplish their dreams.
