Does anyone have any experience or thoughts regarding Cal Newport’s “Study Hacks” blog, or his books? I’m trying to get an idea of how reliable his advice is before, saying, reading his book about college, or reading all of the blog archives.
Some LW discussions of his books: A summary and broad points of agreement and disagreement with Cal Newport’s book on high school extracurriculars, Book Review: So Good They Can’t Ignore You, by Cal Newport, The failed simulation effect and its implications for the optimization of extracurricular activities.
Cognito Mentoring refer to him a fair bit, and often in mild agreement. Check their blog and wiki.
