Explanation:

A job can help you pay the bills, etc and can help develop good character and other attributes and life lessons. College can help you in multiple ways for preparing you and in finding which path is being taken towards your future. The IPad can help you with many things such as wanting to take a break and listen to music, or it can be used in a more efficient way by allowing you to research and study, which would become helpful if you are planning to go to college. The HGTV is kinda pointless, for you can just watch something on your IPad or do much more on it for it has multiple functions. You could use the money for something way more important or useful. Therefore, the HGTV is the opportunity cost.

like many students at university, you may be unhappy about the results you attain in exams. you may feel that even with all you are doing there must be something more -- or different-- you could be doing to get better grades. we have all at some time or other heard of that student who only studies a couple of hours for final exams and scores a's every time. we stand in awe of those who seem to breeze through without undue effort and seem to need very little in the way of studying to nail an exam. the reasons for success, in what i think are the vast majority of cases, are less esoteric than many students think: successful students consistently apply a series of productive strategies with view to attaining clearly identified learning and grade goals throughout the academic term.
