I was SO un-organized last year in the 8th grade! I couldn’t even open my locker without being flooded with loose papers and books and note and pens and coats!! I suffered, going from an A B honor roll student to an F in math almost each time report cards came out. SO! get a system going, like clean out your locker and book bag every Friday. Plan ahead. What you are going to wear tomorrow, what test do you need to study for, double check homework, it’s all stuff that should do every night. That reminds me. study RIGHT before you go to bed. it’s been scientifically proven that you remember things longer if you learn them at night. also, when you have a project or report, GET IT DONE RIGHT AWAY!! I used to ALWAYS procratinate! (put things off till the last minute) i would do fun things like sleep overs, but it wouldn’t be as much fun because in the back of your mind you’re thinking “aw man! i have that project to do!” when if you get it done early, and you go to a party, you can think “ha! i can party because i don’ thave any work! no worries for ME!” also, do things FUN! you have a report on Japan? do the report on a japanese scroll. also, Extra credit is a students best friend! putting in a little extra effort could mean a big extra for your grade! Other tips: eat right, listen to the teacher, write down homework or other things like picture day or b-ball game in a panner, sleep well, and if you do all these things, you will grow up and not regret one thing! You’ll be so happy, and your grades will be good so ppl will be BEGGIN you to work for them, and you’ll know what ou want in life, and also a lot of guys like smart girls!
First, don’t wait until the last minute to study. Your brain can’t process ALL that information at one time.
However, after you have studied everything, it’s good to read your notes over again once or twice to refresh your memory right before the test or quiz. It’s not cramming, it’s just moving all that information to the top of your head so you’ll be able to retrieve it.
Look over your what you’re studying. Go through the key points. If possible, avoid reading unnecessary information because it will distract you from what your mind needs ot remember.
After reading a section, take out a blank sheet of paper and write down what you just studied. Or write down the main ideas. This will really help you if you have writing/photographic memory. After you are sure that you have the information down, TAKE A BREAK.
You might not know it, but this break is very important. It gives your brain a chance to process the information you just studied. If you cram too much information at once, you might forget some things.
After a nice 2 to 5 minute break, return to your notes. Without looking, write down what you have already studied. You should be able to remember almost everything by now. If not, go over the section again and repeat all the steps.
Don’t forget to look over the notes again right before the test to refresh your memory.
Most tests/quizzes are multiple choice, so don’t memorize too many details. Through this study method, you will be able to recognize which one is the right answer.
I hope this helps! Good luck!!
Before you even begin to think about the process of studying, you must develop a schedule. If you don’t have a schedule or plan for studying, then you will not have any way of allocating your valuable time when the unexpected comes up. A good, well thought out schedule can be a lifesaver. It’s up to you to learn how develop a schedule that meets your needs, revise it if necessary, and most important, follow it.
A schedule saves time
All schedules should be made with the idea that they can be revised. A good schedule keeps you from wandering off course. A good schedule, if properly managed, assigns time where time is needed, but you’ve got to want to do it!
Making every hour count
A schedule should take into account every class, laboratory, lecture, social event, and other work in which you engage. There are givens such as classes and so on that have to be incorporated. You must focus on the other “free time” available and how you will use it. Make a weekly schedule and block off the 24 hour day in one hour increments. Indicate times for classes, labs, lectures, social, and work time. Also block off a period for sleeping each day. With what is left over, plan time for study. This gives you a rough road map of the time available. Of course, you can revise your schedule as circumstances warrant.
When to study
The problem of when to study is critical. A good rule of thumb is that studying should be carried out only when you are rested, alert, and have planned for it. Last minute studying just before a class is usually a waste of time.
Studying for lecture courses
If your study period is before the lecture class, be sure you have read all the assignments and made notes on what you don’t understand. If the study period is after the lecture class, review the notes you took during class while the information is still fresh.
Studying for recitation courses
For classes that require recitation, such as foreign language, be sure to schedule a study period just before the class. Use the time to practice. Sometimes, practice with others can help sharpen your skills in a before-class study period.
Making and revising a schedule
Don’t be afraid to revise your schedule. Schedules are really plans for how you intend to use your time. If your schedule doesn’t work, revise it. You must understand that your schedule is to help you develop good study habits. Once you have developed them, schedule building becomes easier.
The Process of Study
How to use your time
Time is the most valuable resource a student has. It is also one of the most wasted of resources. The schedule you develop should guide you in how to allocate the available time in the most productive manner. Sticking to your schedule can be tough. Don’t dribble away valuable time. Avoiding study is the easiest thing in the world. It’s up to you to follow the schedule you prepared. A good deal of your success in high school or college depends on this simple truth.
Where to study
You can study anywhere. Obviously, some places are better than others. Libraries, study lounges or private rooms are best. Above all, the place you choose to study should not be distracting. Distractions can build up, and the first thing you know, you’re out of time and out of luck. Make choosing a good physical environment a part of your study habits.
Strategies
Thinking skills
Everybody has thinking skills, but few use them effectively. Effective thinking skills cannot be studied, but must be built up over a period of time. Good thinkers see possibilities where others see only dead-ends. If you’re not a good thinker, start now by developing habits that make you ask yourself questions as you read. Talk to other students who you feel are good thinkers. Ask them what it is they do when they think critically or creatively. Often times, you can pick up valuable insights to help you become a better thinker.
