It should not be superficial and rushed. Camming might help you remember a few facts but it will not give you the overall understanding of a subject, which you should be studying for in your College Education. Systematic and use varied techniques You should begin organizing a study schedule as soon as possible in the start of the semester. Besides making summaries of your lecture notes, use varying strategies for your revision. Draw up schemes showing the relationship between the concepts you have studied in your subject or form study groups with your fellow students to discuss the different topic and the relationship between them to reinforce both understanding and recall. Use relationship to memorize Understanding the relationship between pieces of information, such as their similarities and difference, and using their relationship to information already known is definite advantage during stress of an examination. 3 Practices previous exam papers You should obtain copies of previous exam papers as early as possible in the revision process. Doing these exam in the required time limit will give you practice in applying what you have learnt to specific topic and practice in examination techniques. This will also you a good idea of the format, time limit and the number of question in the examination. Time management Make time for rest, relaxation, sleep, eating, exercising, and socializing in your schedule. To avoid boredom and loss of concentration, divide your study time into reasonable chunks. The most successful study sessions are 25 minutes and rest 5 minutes. Studying for four rounds its good. 4 round is equal 2 hours. Do not put everything off until the last minute. 4 MEMORIES METHOD ❖ Organize your space To improve your memory, you need to be able to focus. Distractions of any kind will prevent this, so make sure your space is clear of clutter and has all the materials you need for your study session. ❖ Visualize the information Use the Method of Loci. (The method of loci is a strategy of memory enhancement which uses visualizations of familiar spatial environments in order to enhance the recall of information. The method of loci is also known as the memory journey, memory palace, or mind palace technique) this is a technique where you visualize a house, associating rooms in the house with bits of information. New information goes into a new room. Open a drawer to find a chemical formula. Open a closet to find the names of the bones in the foot. 5 ❖ Use the chaining technique Create a story or sentence around a bit of information so that it can be more easily recalled. The story can be silly and fun, which will make it easier to remember. ❖ Use image-name associations Recalling names can be easier by associating images and names in a clever, unique way. Remember the names of the presidents by associating a facial feature with their name. ❖ Study in different locations Your memory can be triggered by different way in your environment. If you are having trouble remembering the material you are studying, try moving to a new spot to help the information stand out in your mind. 6 RELAXING METHOD ❖ Get out of the house Leave the place where you are studying in order to re-energize. Take your dog for a walk or go alone and spend time in nature for a little while to relax your mind. Spend some time thinking about something other than your study materials. ❖ 6 best healthy drink Meet a friend for a quick cup of coffee, or even better try one of these six healthier drink options. Example, Coffee, Green tea, orange juice, Blueberry juice, Turmeric lattes and the best is plain water. ❖ Do something you enjoy Hobbies can help you relax. Put aside the books and take a few minutes or up to an hour to put your stress towards an activity you enjoy. You take a time out and do something completely different from the subject you studying, and, once you feel better, you get back to studying, 7 ❖ Relax your mind and muscles Do some yoga. Give yourself a massage .Take a hot bubble bath. Imagine yourself elsewhere for ten minutes. Example “I close my eyes, and I just imagine myself on a wonderful beach, and I’m surrounded by fun people, we’re doing the limbo, just enjoying the sun,” he described. “I’m enjoying that mental image for ten minutes and then I come back to my studies and I feel relieved and can start my studies again.” ❖ Close your eyes and breathe Take a deep breath in and hold it for five seconds. Now let it out. Tell yourself that everything will work out in the end. Take a second to focus on the present and just chill out, Sometimes all people need to do to calm down is breath. It really does help, take time out to relax and put things into perspective chances are it’s over a test or something that in the big picture of things is not going to change your life. 8 TIPS FOR STUDY Listen song Study Technique Study group Eliminate distraction Self deception Set a Timer Listen to song You can listen to song when you study or doing tutorial.
