Not sure what to do at this point, but I really dislike people in my cohort. We've all been told time and time again that a solid study group is what you need to succeed and I just haven't been able to find a group that I click with. Either nobody does any substantial amount of work/ can't keep track of what assignments are due and wants everything explained to them- contributing absolutely nothing. Or just want to sit around and talk about non class-related topics in the precious little time we have. Or we will all agree to have a certain amount of reading done before a meeting and then no one will have done the assignment other than me. 

Fortunately, I've received 100% on every test/assignment in my classes so far so am doing OK without study buddies. But I'm worried about what's to come after first quarter. Anyone run into a similar problem?! Advice?!

While I've generally got on well with the people in various study groups, I've never been part of one that was as effective as I am when studying by myself. Unless required to join a group as part of an assigned project, I eschew time spent with other students... it's just not an efficient way to study for me.

Maybe that's the way you are.
