Just when you presume the day will be relaxing and easy-going, your teacher springs a quiz or test when you least expect it. As much as we all despise taking an exam, exams are, inevitably, an unavoidable part of school life. Everyone hates taking exams, but you can improve your study technique for them to avoid being caught unprepared.
1. Creating an Environment of Learning
Make sure you are studying in a clean, quiet and orderly room. Keep anything and everything away from where you are that may cause you to get distracted. Jumping up to read a text message on your phone or periodically checking social media is ill-advised whilst studying.
2.Begin with the easy part
Many students wonder whether it's better to begin with the hard part that takes a lot of time or the easy one that can be studied quickly. It's much better to begin studying with the easy part because your mood will improve on finding that you finished many things in a short period of time. Studying the hard part first on the other hand might reduce your motivation as you will find that a lot of time passed yet you didn't finish anything
3.Keep an eye on time
One of the best studying tips you can follow is to keep an eye on time by putting a clock beside you. The only difference between Type A personalities and other people is that they are always conscious of time and that's why they finish their tasks quickly
4.Take breaks
While you are studying do nothing other than studying. Don't check your mail, your phone or think about turning the TV on. You can take a short break every two hours provided that its time limited. Taking breaks is a great method that can help you study better for exams because whenever you will feel like procrastinating you will find that you can wait for the next break to do what you want
5. Ask for help.
If you need help, ask someone who is good at these subjects. Friends, family, teachers are all good options. If you don't understand what the person helping you is communicating, don't be afraid to ask them to elaborate.
Asking teachers for help conveys your commitment to the material and can be helpful in the future as well as with your exams. Always remember to ask your teachers if you do not know what she is talking about or if you need more information. The teacher will gladly help.
