    Successful Students\u00a0accept personal responsibility<\/h3>\r\nEach student achieves success in a different way. Below is a\u00a0list of some important characteristics\u00a0that impact student success. By answering the questions on a scale of \"I usually do\" to \"I seldom do,\" you'll gain insight into the characteristics you've got going for you already and where you might need to build some new habits. Remember, these characteristics aren't things you're born with.
