Her emphasis on authentic learning is a breath of fresh air, and will inspire young people to form lifelong learning habits. This is a great book for the student in you life, whether they need to polish their study skills or are ready to tackle more advanded strategies for learning."
Daniel H. Pink

"I must say, as a higher education professional, I found this book to be very refreshing. The book challenges the reader to go beyond the culturally acceptable forms of educational attment through extrinsic recognition i.e. grades, and instead to strive to learn for the sake of learning."
Mirtha Novalien Baily

"I teach First Year Experience at a university and Fishel includes a lot of concepts in her book that college freshmen need to learn o be successful. I appreciate the discussion of "Intentional Learning" and the attempt to get students beyond the hyper-focus on grades to concentrate instead on the purpose of learning."

"Straight A's Are Not Enough is the answer to a motivated studennt's prayer: achieve improved results with less effort....This book dazzled me with its dept and practicality. After reading it, I realized how horribly inefficient my approach to learning was. It includes a Smorgasbord of approaches from which students can select the strategies that best suit their learning styles. It offers ideas for everyone."

" The format, straightforward presentation, reader friendly format, and Judy Fishel's authenticity and writing style all combine to motivate the reader to discover or rediscover the enjoyment of learning and challenge them to take charge of their own educcation. It will also help professional educators to pass on these learning strategies to their students.
