Pirine 4,209 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 If not studying got you that far, are you really having an issue? Edit: Genuine question. No clue at this point lol. Up till this point ive been banking on how easy high school tests were, but i haven't had much of a problem with the tests I taken so far up till this point in college. Maybe im over thinking things and Ill do fine. Idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal glow 6,196 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I memorise notes by reciting them. It's not everyone's preferred style but I honestly can't remember things just by looking at or reading it LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe im over thinking things and Ill do fine. Idk I wasn't sure if it was a case of overthinking or if the test was based on a score requirement. I feel like if you think you have a decent or better grasp of the topic, there's no need to super stress. Maybe a quick half hour of refreshing? Other than that, hearing things out loud helps me grasp things better by listening to a reading if it's available or reading something out loud quietly to myself (I only do that by myself though lol).

Asarlai 1,099 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Turning a sentence into phrases or symbols. Like a 1 or 2 pages to become 10 or less lines. As for the formulas, index cards helped me. I only study at night to morning tho, midnight makes me confident and more at ease lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khyler 293 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Told you to go to the library . Anyway, knows what's in the exam, do practice exams, when there's something you don't understand, go revise your notes. If you're stressing really hard, then you don't really need music to put you in the vibe. If you have to memorise something, don't just read it, you actually need to intentionally recall the facts. The action of recalling without reading is the equivalent of 3 reading (actually forgot the real number but it's just so much efficient ). Focus on understanding, because it's less hard to recall something that's associated to something else then pure memorisation (do it or you'll regret it). Drink juice. Recall what you have learn by writing it on a paper (if there're mistakes, start again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherrimotion 822 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I go to the library in order to not distract myself and I summarize all my notes. That works kinda well for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amorria 25 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 When the year starts, I always try to study on time - like, making notes regulary, reading materials, etc. And because I'm lazy af, I tend to study one day or two before test. I remember studying for my middle school finals one day before they started. I scored 81%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dove 442 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I study for a set amount of time and I take a 10-minute break and then just repeat the cycle. I study in small chunks because I find it easier to remember information that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
