Read over the notes a couple of times and then summarize it in your own words. Writing it down might help store it into the long-term memory." Veronica
|
Play some relaxing music (whatever music you enjoy listening to) before studying to clear my mind of everything
|
My own personal TIP is to go into your room lock yourself in there and turn on a little music and start studying. A little music won't hurt. Actually it makes me focus more on what I'm actually studying. I don't know why but it works for me. Most people would get distracted but I recommend that. You should try it sometime
|
Sometimes, if I have a study guide, I'll tape it to the front of my Trapper Keeper, so if I have any extra time, I can glance at it."
|
. Concentrate on what I'm studying when I begin to study, and do that throughout the process of studying
|
This time, read more intently. Go back to the start of the text. As you read the text under each heading or subheading, make notes of the main ideas. Try to list the main idea at the top, then list the more detailed points in the text that support the main idea. Bullet lists of these supporting points will usually work well.
|
Listen to soothing, but invigorating music. I usually listen to Beethoven while I do mindless homework like math, French, or science assignments. It gets your brain pumping and flowing, and keeps you alert and awake
|
Review it over orally to see if I actually remember what I studied, to see if I'm ready for that particular test.
Also, if the test is on Wednesday morning, I would study the night before, a few hours before I sleep. Since it would be fresh in my mind. Then an hour before the test, I will study for a second time just to make sure I'm completely ready. I've been doing this type of studying all my life, and it hasn't failed me. If this helps you, more power to you. If not, well hey everyone has their own methods of studying. Whatever works for you |
I'm not sure if this was already mentioned or not. I like to use a tape recorder to tape the professor's lecture (if permitted). I can then listen to the lecture until I almost know it by heart. You get word for word content, importance, and the areas that you should most study. I am assuming that you have a portable player and ear plugs and that you can walk around all day and night listening over and over again.

For girls, when you study, have a scent in the room, preferably a perfume or something. Then when you take the test, wear that perfume. It can help you remember what you study because you relate the scent to the information. Of course you have to use a scent that you wouldn't normally
|
A strategy that I employ for studying is to try refer to my course materials whenever I find my mind going over concepts taught in my courses. I always have my class materials available so that I can pull them out in the event that I find myself thinking of them. I believe that my mind keeps working on things even when I am not consciously thinking about them. Whenever I open my class materials when I find my mind drifting onto the topic, I find that the concepts that were difficult for me previously are now very easy to understand. I'll then go on and do some of the assignments for practice so I don't forget. It's sub-conscious studying!"
|
Each day after your class go over your notes just for mere 20 minutes. Just reading is going to be effective. Read notes out loud and re-write them either by hand or on the computer. Make sure you understand what you are reading since this will help store this in your long term memory
|
Sometimes, if I have a study guide, I'll tape it to the front of my Trapper Keeper, so if I have any extra time, I can glance at it."
|
"Before I started to do my study, I make sure that I am not sleepy, hungry, thirsty, and don't need to use the bathroom. If I feel all those necessities before I study, I take care of it first. This way, there will be no unnecessary interruption while I'm doing my work
|
On the night before the test you should be ready for the test since you have been studying prior to the test each day. This helps to cut down the cramming. Also, keep in mind cramming results in deprivation of sleep which results in not being able to function at optimal levels during the test the next day. So, the night before the test make up a practice quiz or get a friend to quiz you. This will allow you to determine what areas you need to focus on. Also, keep in mind if you're still having trouble remembering a concept come back to it after 30 minutes or so
|
I understand and remember more when I listen to someone else so for me it is easier to work or study with a “study buddy
|
My studying method that works for me is to review my notes everyday and reread the topic chapter to refresh my memory. Doing this everyday helped me prepared for my test by not cramming the night before exam
|
Also, if you are studying a language, why not learn a little slang by watching anime or movies in other languages? It will not only help boost your confidence by knowing more about the culture and being able to understand some useful little words that allow you to express yourself in more depth, but it will DEFINITELY improve your pronunciation! *Don't watch too much, though! It CAN GET addictive!!!* It also works for the 'example sentences' tip above
|
Try to study in the morning because at that time, your mind is fresh and you can do more study than you can do it during night. I works for me
|
An approach to reading that works best for me is both annotating and the Cornell Method. In annotating I can mark and highlight important information, key ideas, unknown words, and interesting facts while reading. Using the Cornell Method, I can then organize the marked text into a better, arranged, understandable form. These methods both save me time and keep me actively involved."
|
Basically just have your goal and create an environment that reminds you of it and all its glory.
This is something that has really helped me through my stress breakdowns because it reminds me of all the things I need/can have through hard work and dedication.

I am an Indian student and I am in the tenth standard now. My TIP is "When you sit down to study never think about anything else other than your book. Leave the world outside and come into your book
|
I've found that writing notes in shorthand (e.g. people=ppl) and going home that night while it is still fresh in the memory and typing it out longhand on the computer helps to memorize or keep the info in the brain because for people that constantly look up at the screen are rereading what they have typed. I don't know if this is a good study method but it works for me
|
One of my sixth grade teachers told me once to repeat everything my teacher said in a low whisper to yourself and that after the teacher is done keep reciting as much as possible until you are sure you have it in your head like a daily routine. This helps me and it's the easiest thing to do also when you are taking notes. Your mind will be more focused on what the teacher is saying and you won't miss a

Drink plenty of water, it keeps the brain hydrated. A hydrated brain can remember more than a dehydrated brain.
Of course do not go silly or else you will be spending all your time in the toilet! |
Professors and other students think you are smarter and more attuned to learning, just because you have a PowerBook in front of you, and will pay more attention to your questions. Other students will want to share their notes because they can read yours.
|
Study for yourself, not because your parents want you to but because you are the creator of your own destiny
|
My study TIP is to make your own questions while reading and with those same questions test yourself, with this you will find out how well you are doing or if you are ready for the test

"For girls, when you study, have a scent in the room, preferably a perfume or something. Then when you take the test, wear that perfume. It can help you remember what you study because you relate the scent to the information. Of course you have to use a scent that you wouldn't normally smell."

During my college days, the theoretical tests were stressful, because of the sheer volume of the chapters. During the run-up to these tests, I would make it a point to revise whatever I studied in my head whenever I was doing routine tasks, like eating, bathing, etc. I used to eat, drink, sleep what I studied. I kept going over this info in my head all the time
