Not currently a college student. I finished school… umm.. a few years ago. Looking up every word really depends on what you are studying and how well you understand the content. For example, look them all up if you are reading literature and can’t understand the story because you don’t know what most of the words mean. If you are reading history and DO understand what is happening without knowing every word, then don’t bother.

if it is a school book, then try reading on a sentance or two before immidiatly looking up a word. sometimes the sentances and words around it will help you understand what the word means. if that doesnt work, at least look up the words that are in important areas of the book. or just ask your teacher for advice.
