Study tips that may save your grades!

When I was preparing for my board exam, I was not confident about my preparation enough and was really terrified if I'll be able to cut good grade this time. But I was determined to get A+ and as I luckily had enough time for 2/3 months for preparation, I followed some ways to study quickly but effectively. Here I'm sharing those tips with you!

1. Suitable Time for Reading 🕙

Effective studying requires full concentration. Timing is a significant factor here. It's not possible if we just sit randomly and can concentrate on study anytime. There are certain periods when body and mind is more active than the rest of the time a day. It's because our body maintains biological clock. It can vary from person to person.

 

Studies shows that, some people feel active and energetic if they wake up and start their day early  in the morning. This has some scientific measures too. One can be more productive in the morning. Whereas, some people are night-owls, their brain remains more active at night. They can finish their work amore effectively during night time.    

2.Writing Down ✍

  

Writing down simply helps you a lot in exams. When you are reading you should keep a notepad with you and write down what you are learning. This trick personally help me a lot and I always suggest to do so.

Researchers have found that writing the lessons by hand is more effective then typing. So it's a very crucial point for every student who wants to do better in exams. The students who have this practice do better results then the students who do not practice it.

3.The Habit of Taking Notes in Class 📔

 

Note taking is something students feel lazy about, whereas it really saves your time while you're preparing for big exam. There are some points that should be maintained during preparation and making notes:

1.Only include  key points

2. Do not overdo it

3.Can make summery of the whole topic

4.Use colorful pen or highlighter that helps you concentrate

5.Organize it

4.Stop being a Silent Reader 🙊

Sound have a really good effect to memorize something. If you are a silent reader, there's a chance that you might forget important information very often. When you speak loud it helps you concentrate better .

5.Problems are Good💡

Never consider the problems as a headache. This should not be a toppers mindset. Embrace your problems and try to get a way to solve it. This will increase your problem solving capability and analytical ability. The more you solve the problem the more you understand the topic. 

6.Become a Teacher 💁

This is my favorite technique. It helps a lot in terms of understanding something. If you understand your lesson it's not enough sometime, rather it will be easy to set your studies in you mind if you teach someone what you have learned. It provides you a clearer idea about you study topic and helps you in a long way.
