1.Study before going to bed
Bedtime Stories for Kids. Instead of reading the story, try to study for a few minutes before sleeping.
During sleep, our brain strengthens new memories and stores them in the long term, so there is a good chance that you will remember what you reviewed before sleep
2. Break the content in small parts.
New learning techniques, called "space repetitions," include breaking down information into smaller parts and reviewing them for longer periods of time.
Try not to memorize all the meetings in one sitting. Instead, learn a few rows daily and review each lesson before starting something new.
3. Build a mnemonic Device
Change the details you need to remember in an easy-to-read overview. For example, note the mathematical order of PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponent, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) with this attractive mnemonic device: Please (P) For (E) My (M) Dear (D) Aunt (A) Sally (S)
4. Write it down
Keep those third-grade pension lessons in good use. Research suggests that we store information more securely when writing by hand than typing on a computer keyboard. Start by resuming the most important notes of the semester on a new sheet of paper.
5. Practice exam before hand
Quiz yourself is a great way to prepare for a real deal with sample sheet and then get into the habit of practicing. Use a stopwatch to limit the trial period.
This may seem obvious, but the best strategy is to focus on the hard stuff first so that it doesn't get you into the exam.
6. Shout
The double action of seeing and listening to information at once helps to seal your memory. So shout that note. We cannot guarantee that you will not be excluded from the library.
Get help
7. Come together (group work)
Collective work doesn't fly with everyone, but for those who benefit from some team effort, study groups are the way to go. Choose some study buddies and review this material together every few days.
Give a person the responsibility to delegate tasks (snack duty, music selection) and target the group with the purpose.
Change things
8. Go back
This may sound strange, but walking back is like hitting the rewind button in your brain. According to one study, people who went backward were better at remembering the video they watched than those who looked ahead or stood still.
What is this strange phenomenon? The authors of the study call it the "Mnemonic Time-Travel Effect."
9. Switch the subject
Don't stick to one subject. Instead, study a bunch of different materials in one sitting. This technique helps you prepare to use the right strategies to find solutions to the problem.
For example, if you have multiple section problems in a row, you will know that each problem needs some segmentation to begin with. But multiplying, dividing, or additionally doing a series of problems requires you to think about which strategy is best.
10. Treat yourself.
A healthy holiday cookie, walking around the block, 5 minutes on social media - whatever floats your finger. Knowing that a little prize is waiting at the end of some more pages makes it easier to stop the delay when it comes to scamming the semester's note prices.
11. Drink
Sorry, no such drink. Instead, the coffee or tea of your choice, whether it's coffee or tea, should be served at a local coffee shop with a tea leaf or coffee beans. Research suggests that the amount of caffeine contained in a cup or two of coffee increases attention and alertness.
12. Make specific time Table
Taking time off to plan is one of the most important skills students should have. Don't start the week with a vague goal of studying for a history exam. Instead, break those goals into smaller tasks.
Write it done on a calendar like a regular square. For example, allocate a specific time.
13. Make it work
Get thin and intelligent at the same time. Research has shown that just an hour and a half of physical exercise can improve your brain's processing speed and other important mental abilities. Jog some laps around the block or walk a few steps and see that you are back.
14. Give it a break
A KitKat guy said it, and so does science: Taking a break - say, every 75 to 90 minutes - can increase productivity and improve your ability to focus on a single task. For actual productivity charges, step away from the screen and sweat with a mid day gym session.
Stress the victory
15. Dance on the music
Overnight study sessions depend on who wants to win, so music can help you overcome stress.
It's not yet clear what kind of music is best - classical, country, rock or hip-hop - so go with your passions. Give those biology notes a soundtrack and at least some of the stress slide feels away.
16. Say "Om"
Before pointing at the piece of paper for 3 hours, direct your mind inwards for 3 minutes. Research suggests that meditation captures attention and focus. And if you do it often enough, you can keep that intellectual advantage well into you.
Although most studies emphasize regular meditation, trying for a few minutes now and then pre-testing does not hurt anything.
17. Doze off
When there is a textbook full of equations to remember, they are tempted to stay overnight by committing (or trying) in memory. But unknown people rarely make automatic A’s. In fact, burning the oil at midnight can cause a backfire, leading to more forgetting and more susceptibility to stress.
Our goal is to take 7 to 8 hours that night, during the big exam days. Research has shown that a solid night of sleep improves reflexive memory, also known as the ability to remember the facts of that big test.
18. Feel free to breathe
Dust old library again… or spa day? According to one study, lavender improved participants' memory test scores after exposure to stress. Skip the last-minute frantic review and try a few minutes for aromatherapy instead.
Fight distractions
19. Nick 'net'
We are all there, facing a siren call from a friend’s Facebook wall on the day of the monster test. If you need a computer to study, try the internet blocking app in the short term and see how much more you have done.
20. Let it be
Deep-breathing yoga can both improve focus and reduce stress. Dive into that downward sloping dog or lean your body into the loins. All it can take is a few sun salutations to focus on during the finals.
Find your sweet spot
21. Learn what works
Some people are early birds and some are night owls. Some prefer to escape, while others require complete and complete peace. Experiment to find out which study method is most effective for you, and then stick to it!
