Don´t Be Afraid to Ask Questions

In a lecture situation, it is often easy to just sit back, take notes, and stay silent. Still, if something is unclear to you, try raising your hand. If you´re acknowledged, consider it a plus on recognition. If not, put your hand back down and then approach the professor with your question after class. Either way, you´ll be showing the professor your interest as well as singling yourself out from the other students in your class.
