Time to Hit the Books
Get going with these study tips
No silent reading. Say the information out loud instead. This increases the sensory input to the brain and will help you remember.
Spread your knowledge. Try teaching the material to someone else.
Be a flasher. Flash cards are portable study notes, great for quick 15-minute study sessions. Recite the cards until you can remember the ideas without looking.
Tune out. Half the time we study with the radio blasting or the TV taking up our attention. Instead, isolate yourself and study where you will give the subject ALL of your attention
Use the force. Since you are forced to do your homework anyway (nobody does that stuff because it’s fun), use it as an opportunity to test yourself. Try to answer questions without looking at notes or the book. This is good test practice.
Avoid the cram clan. You know those people who frantically try to memorize their notes with other students minutes before the test. Cram sessions are more confusing and stressful than they are helpful.
