Exam Preparation: Ten Study Tips

Don’t leave it until the last minute. While some students do seem to thrive on last-minute cramming, it’s widely accepted that (for most of us) this is not the best way to approach an exam. To help sort out your time management, set up a timetable for your study. Write down how many exams you have and the days on which you have to sit them. Then organize your study accordingly. You may want to give some exams more study time than others, so find a balance that you feel comfortable with.

Organize your study space

Make sure you have enough space to spread your textbooks and notes out. Have you got enough light? Is your chair comfortable? Are your computer games out of sight?

Try and get rid of all distractions, and make sure you feel as comfortable and able to focus as possible. For some people, this may mean almost complete silence, for others, background music helps. Some of us need everything completely tidy and organized in order to concentrate, while others thrive in a more cluttered environment. Think about what works for you, and take the time to get it right.

Plan your exam day

Make sure you get everything ready well in advance of the exam – don’t leave it to the day before to suddenly realize you don’t know the way, or what you’re supposed to bring. Check all the rules and requirements, and plan your route and journey time. If possible, do a test run of the trip. If not, write down clear directions.

Work out how long it will take to get there – then add on some extra time. You really don’t want to arrive having had to run halfway or feeling frazzled from losing your way. You could also make plans to travel to the exam with friends or classmates, as long as you know they’re likely to be punctual.

Drink plenty of water

As a final tip, remember that being well hydrated is essential for your brain to work at its best. Make sure you keep drinking plenty of water throughout your revision, and also on the exam day.

that is good,but I think it depends on everyone to be comfortable with what method

 

<p>Please be very careful. Last-minute studies does not help. Neither does revising until 12AM before the examination day.It will just make you weary and you will lose concentration. Remember, concentration is the key.

This is really great, thanks. I disagree with some stuff though. Like Organising your study space. Actually that’s great, but I sometimes found I took way too long doing this to avoid work!

“Use Flowcharts and Diagrams” is the main one. Your advice about explaining to friends does this to an extent – I find that useful.

One thing to add, you need a way to calm down if you’re too stressed! Something I learnt and found very useful is that angling your eyes up when you study, and doing a half smile makes you less stressed. If you feel your breathing and heartbeat too for around a minute that all calms you down a lot.

Oh! Something connected to point 8! You can’t get by just eating brain food, you also have to avoid brain poison! Don’t eat stuff with artificial colorant, sweetener and 5h1# like that. They screw with your concentration so it’s just as important that you avoid the bad as get the good.
