How To Prepare Well For A Test
Learning should be a lifelong pursuit and it is for many. Making that pursuit worthwhile and even enjoyable takes an understanding of your own cognitive ability. You have to be able to look at the way that you learn because no matter how hard you try, your learning experience will always be different from someone else's. Here are some tips to find the learning style that works for you.
Johnny liked to have fun. He was an intelligent, fun-loving kind of guy that everyone liked. That was part of his problem. He liked being around people so much that he always had parties to go to, spontaneous movie nights to attend, and very active social media profiles to keep up on. Although intelligent, unfortunately, the allure of life stole his attention away from homework and towards an exciting college social life. He had managed to scrape his way through classes by guessing wisely, paying attention during class, and BS-ing well. He felt bad about his lack of out-of-class effort, but not quite bad enough to change.
Optimize your study time by first reducing your distractions. Turn the ringer of your phone off and place your phone in your bag, out of sight. Keep any music low so you will not be distracted by it, and ask any people to please leave you to your studies. Have in mind any study goals you have set and then dive right in. Don't forget to take the occasional break as you study to give your body and mind a rest from the mental and physical strain of sitting hunched over your textbooks and notes.
The first paper rolled around. The night before it was due, he finally gathered the will to write. He'd just sit down, throw out some flowery writing peppered with principles he had learned in class and that would be that. As he reviewed the syllabus for the paper's guidelines, he began realizing that his regular last-minute writing might not cut it. He was required to include fifteen reliable sources, including three personal interviews, and several examples from the text they had been assigned.
The day of your test has arrived. Make sure that you have gotten enough sleep the night before your test. You also want to eat a healthy breakfast and/or lunch so that your brain and your body have the fuel they need to perform acceptably through the day. If you need to, research what foods have the ability to boost your energy levels and brain power. Arrive at your test at least 5 minutes early so you have time to review your notes one more time. Once you've glanced at your materials, put them away and take a moment to relax and clear your mind and body of any stress or anxiety. Have the test taking items that you need on your desk and remember to just relax. If you have followed the steps outlined above you can rest assured that you are as prepared as you can be and that you will do reasonably well on your test.
In the end these simple little tips will help you find, try, and ultimately implement your learning style in the real world. Make sure that you are ready to give up some of the institutionalized habits you have picked up along the way.
