6 last minute study tips
Are you rushing to get as much study as possible done before your exams?There are a few ways that you can use your study time wisely to get the most out of your cram sessions!
Don’t just read the information over and over again – this isn’t a good way to memorise it. Do test yourself by using the information to quiz yourself on possible exam questions.
Don’t procrastinate by browsing the web or checking out The Naked CEO’s photos on Instagram. Do avoid temptation by cutting out distractions and disconnecting from the web.
Don’t use boring study techniques.Do find creative ways to study. Try making up rhymes, acronyms or even draw a diagram to help you memorise the information.
Don’t write pages and pages of notes the night before your exam.Do write a short, sharp ‘cheat sheet’. Create a page full of relevant and important ideas, quotes and equations that you will need to remember.
Don’t be afraid to make some noise. Do read the information out loud. You can make it even more memorable by singing the key points to the tune of your favourite song.
Don’t stay up all night before an exam. You’re not doing yourself any favours heading into an exam tired.Do get a good night’s sleep so your mind is refreshed and ready to answer the tough questions.
Don’t let nerves or anxiety get to you. Sometimes the anticipation of an exam can be scarier than the event itself. Do try your best to relax. You’ve worked hard all semester – this is your chance to show off everything that you’ve learned.
