Final Fever

Final is around the corner , but I really don't know which one I have to study. And the best thing is , I keep wasting my time than study. Everyone keep asking me "do you have a note? " "do you study for upcoming final? " and i keep answering " NO". After that , I'm asking myself. When i will start studying? haha. I do search on web about study smart. Here are some tips i'm gonna share to you ! Check this out !

1.Make a realistic commitment to study and create a good time table for your self.

2.Divide the learning into short periods of time followed by a little rest after each study lesson.

3.Read by understanding instead of cramming because it may affect you during exam.

4.First look at the beginning and end of a chapter or notes and come back to the middle.

5.Carefully go over the entire chapter or notes and come back to the middle again.

6.Outline the important points and pass through them for at least two times in order to understand them properly.

7.Since learning is enhanced when you are relaxed,take time before you start studying by stretching, walking, playing or whatever helps you to relax.This will keep your brain fresh.

8.Study in a comfortable place with good environment and make enough survey about the topic so as to see how the paths relate to the whole before you start.

9.If the assignment requires a text book for reference,try to get it in time.Review the introduction,table of contents, summaries and chapter previews and then start a serious studying.

10.In order to sustain your concentration, take notes,self test, ask questions and meet students who knows better than you for the serious discussions.

11.In order to strengthen your memory of material, ask your self how it relates to prior learning.In this way you may seek association and connection with the information you have already committed to memory.

12.Write your notes in your own words for easy understanding in times of revising.

13.Slow down when you come across material that is difficult. Instead re-read it, move on and return to it later to see if it makes more sense.

14.Review the main concepts for at least every 10 to 15 minutes.Then again after one day, and again after a week.This process will help you to record information as a long term memory.
