How to Study in One DayEdited byHarri, Teresa, LaPastorella, Lojjik Braughlerand 16othersStudying at the last minute? Many people say it wont work but it does! Here are some guidelines on how togo about it.Steps1Write down your syllabus on a piece of paper.2Start with the most difficult chapter or maybe the biggest chapter.If you do this, you will be able to study the small ones easily.3When you start a chapter, do it completely.Do not do the text bookonly or the notes only. Do the textbook and the notes of one chapter completely.Once youre done, scratch the name off the list.4Take breaks and return from them.One problem that everyone face is that when they take a break, they dont come back. So set an alarm to for 15mins. Most importantly, get out of your study area when you are having a break.5Moving on.Do the rest of your chapters in the same fashion, i.e. from the most difficult to the least difficult. If you need to do it practically (like IT) then make another list of doubts (for hands on) and do itafteryou complete thechapters.6Once you are done scratching off all the chapter names off your list, wash your face, do some stretching and do/watch somethingentertaining.Tips*.Make sure you have a healthy breakfast in the morning so that you can remember what you learned because your brain will be filled with healthy food. It will make you remember what you learned easier.*.Study one chapter and take a break of 10-15mins only or less.*.Next day, wake up early like at 5am and go through the highlighted key words. If you are done with early then sleep again.*.The more you concentrate the less time it takes, but dont go too far that you exhaust your brain.*.When studying, imagine/visualize yourself in that situation.*.Sleep at least for 5hours. Crash down at maybe 12 midnight max.*.Just relax. If this goes bad the next will go better.*.Dont stress. That will only make itworse. Just focus, youre smarter than you think.*.Concentrate when studying. Human attention span is about 45mins-half hour only!*.Highlight. Not the whole book, butonly the key words.Warnings*.Dont stay up the whole night. Because the next day youll feel sick.*.After the exams, dont discuss the answers and dont judge your performance. Because by doing this, your confidence level will go down.*.When you cram for a test, you aretrying to put a lot of info into your brain at one time, and hoping thatyou can regurgitate it at the right time (when you are taking the test.) Youwilleventually forget what you learned in your cram session, and that can hurt you later on (for example, when midterms and finals come.) It is better to study a little bit every day throughout the semester. That way, you will really learn it.*.Do notdiscuss with friends at the last minute; you will end up confusing yourself. Just ask them questions you dont know.
