Some more points on ways to study effectively.

 

 

5.   REVIEW NOTES FROM CLASS EVERY EVENING

After school, review and expand on the notes from class. Reviewing notes helps move material learned from short-term memory into long-term memory, which will help next time you have a big test. Studies say that first revision should take place in 24hr, then after a 7 days, then at least 3 weeks after, to memorise.

6.   Plan of action for exams while you SIMPLIFY STUDY NOTES

What chapter to read when? When to do last years papers? All this should be in your schedule.

Make studying less overwhelming by condensing notes from class. Underline or highlight key words. Create visual aids like charts, story webs, mind maps, or outlines to organize and simplify information and help you remember better.

 

7.   DESIGNATE A STUDY AREA

The best study spot is one that is quiet, well-lit, and in a low-traffic area. Make sure there is a clear workspace to study and write on. Everyone’s needs are different, so it is important you find a spot that works for you . Make sure your pencil/pen eraser etc…whatever you need should be at one place so that you don’t have to get up now and then to get something.
