Goal Setting Worksheet: Short and Long-Term Goals

Exam preparation lesson 3: Short-term and long-term goals · Set 38 · 40 questions

Study tip (The ladder and the top): Short-term goal: days or weeks (“read 30 pages this week”). Long-term goal: months or years (“score 90% in Class 10”). Every long-term goal needs a few short-term goals that lead to it — “do well in biology” is a step towards “become a doctor”. Look at your long-term goal every few weeks and pick the next short-term steps.
