Best tips for studying?

[enchante]

I’m in the first days of my senior year of high school and need to study a lot this year. Help me out please!

[bronx.]

ban yourself from OH

[kyulkyung]

what i do is rewrite my notes with colorful pens and highlighters, look at study guides, study week by week to not get behind and ask questions if you're stuck on something. gl!

 

plus try to get rid of your distractions like what yelena said. ban yourself from OH if you need to

Try different techniques. I used to like making posters and mind maps whereas my friends liked to make index cards (the info on them would be snappy and short to help make it easier for them). Make acronyms (those helped me so much). Use your books! Trust me when I say this but a lot of people don't bother using them and they regret it later on. Try finding out what kind of learner you are - if you're a visual learner or not, some people like learning things through diagrams, images and drawings etc. Others prefer reading stuff (aka me). I used to actually use whiteboards to help me learn (it worked for me). Remove any distractions (OH counts as one and any kind of social media). Please don't revise the night before (it DOESN'T work). And I think that's about it. Good luck!

It depends on what kind of learner you are, so you really have to find out what's best for you. I used to like writing out my notes and making it pretty but then at one point I realised I'm putting too much effort into that and not into memorising (which was important for my subject). So I just started making simple notes on a word document and then opening up a fresh one and typing up everything I remember, which helped me a lot. Also writing up loads of practice essays.

The best thing that you can do is actually study and get rid of distractions, organise your time using a planner and actually stick to your schedule. Try to review your notes and use study tools like flash cards, colour coded and highlighting etc, to organise them. 

Basically get your organisation and motivation in check (I should follow my own advise    )

to avoid procrastination I usually keep a water bottle near me while studying so instead of peeking at my phone or something I just drink water instead.

The golden key is volition and motivation, if you're not motivated enough, whatever technique you try will be useless.

 

 

The silver keys are order, consistency, hard-work, and time-management.

Studying while working out helps a lot

When writing your notes have different colors based on how important it is. If you ever have a song stuck in your head, if you can remember the beat to the whole song just change the lyrics to your notes.

It depends on your study habits, but I'd recommend staying hydrated while studying and exercising frequently. One of the most important things is to avoid procrastination, and making a schedule will help you stick to your studying goals or whatever. But you also need to have motivation to study to follow the schedule. Just keep trying out new things and experiment! You'll eventually find a method that you prefer.
