I have a whole bunch of tips for ya! Take good notes in class…Try not to miss class….Find a study buddy in each of your classes , so just in case you miss class you can call them to find out what you missed or notes.
Study Early– Start studying early, AT LEAST a week in advance for each test.It takes a lot of unnecessary stress off of you; a professor of mine said there’s no such thing as studying too much, and i believe him.
Have a break– Study in blocks of an hour or so with 5 or 10 minute breaks in between; i find this useful because i can look forward to breaks and it gives your brain time to rest; i set my alarm on my cell phone to go off to remind me
Plan your study– Make a plan of what you want to study; write note of it in your planner; example: Math–> study one hour, English–> study 2 hours etc. etc.; I have this giant calendar spread across my desk and mark down on it what tests are coming up so i know which ones i need to study more for.
Love your teacher– Don’t be afraid to ask the teacher or a tutor for help; your teacher especially should be more than happy to help you in your studies if you are having trouble in understanding a concept.
Try some self tips– Make stuff like note cards, outlines, Cornell notes, study guides. You don’t have to make all of them for one test of course; whatever works best for you really.. everyone has different studying methods that work best for them.
Highlite the text– when your reading a book or text book.. keep a highlighter or pen in your hand. Make notes in the sides of the pages or high light important information. So as far as important tips for studying.. these are the biggest ones i can think of.
Study hard! but don’t forget to have fun too. have a good time!
