《A guide to university, first year!》Finals & midterms exams: study hacks part #1

Advertisement

Every college student is aware of the challenge of developing a study strategy that works for them. I recall staying in the library until it closed in an effort to study for the upcoming finals and midterms. I've tried a lot of study techniques, but I believe the following advice has been the most helpful for me in college. While diving headfirst into college work can be overwhelming, you will make progress if you use these easy-to-use study tips!

The first thing you should do while getting ready to study during the busy weeks leading up to midterms and exams is organise your workplace. You'll have more room to employ other study tips and be more composed and ready for the week if your desk is organised. You won't have to spend time looking for things or getting sidetracked by clutter, which will make everything easier while you study if your desk and study area are organised. You don't want to waste valuable study time looking for a pencil, therefore I advise making sure you have a place to store everything! It is shown that organising your workspace also helps you organise your memory, thus practising keeping your desk orderly will also help you recall crucial duties!

I can't believe I didn't use this study tip earlier! I struggled mightily to stop forgetting homework during my first year of college. I made an effort to use a planner, but it was insufficient. Purchasing a whiteboard enables you to see the daily chores you need to complete visually. Making a checklist is a simple approach to ensure that you have completed all of the tasks for the day. No matter how busy you are for the day, hanging it up on your door or desk ensures that you will notice it.

Taking a break from your work is advantageous to the calibre of the work you deliver, despite the fact that it may not appear like a study hack. Over time, forcing yourself to do your work will harm you. When I push myself to work through mental fog, the quality of my work suffers. Planning your work ahead in portions will give your mind time to relax, which is the best strategy to combat brain fog. Personally, I prefer to set a timer for the duration of which I am content to work uninterrupted. I give myself permission to take a break if I'm feeling worn out after that period of time is up and then I return to it.

My entire study habit changed once I discovered Cornell notes. Information can be displayed and studied more effectively because to Cornell notes. Using this study tip, you can outline each part of your notes with a list of the most crucial topics to learn. You can download free templates from Google and locate Cornell note templates for Microsoft Word and Google Docs.

You can organise your notes into a logical structure that makes it simple to find information by writing them out in various colours. You can categorise your material by subject and substance using colour coding. When you have all of your main content plotted out, studying will become much simpler. Another effective method for making information in your notes simple to find is colour coding.
