1. Good lecture notes. If your notes
aren’t very detailed, get together with a
classmate and review each others’ notes.
And while you’re at it. don’t just read your
notes, copy or type them over so your
brain has another chance to absorb the
information.
2. Grab friends. Study groups can be a
waste of time if they aren’t focused.
However, they can be invaluable if you
have just a few people who come pre
pared to quiz each other and really work,
even if you’re studying different subjects.
3. Get up and Get Moving! Sitting in
one place for several hours can put you to
sleep. Stand up, walk around, or move
from one end of the library to the other if
you need a change of scenery.
4. Have a strategy. Start with the
most difficult subject, or the one you like
least. You’ll be able to concentrate more
on a boring subject when you’re fresh.
5. Take a break. Take quick breaks or
naps when your body needs them.
Usually, 15 minutes of relaxing for every
hour of study is a good balance. Just don’t
forget to set your alarm!
6. Be creative. Don’t be a slave to
wordy textbooks. Find a way to make
them easier to digest. Make flashcards for
names, dates and vocabulary. Making up
songs and rhymes are other ways to give
your brain an extra memory boost.
7. Anticipate. Remember your profes
sors’ hour-long tangents? There will
probably be a question on one of them.
You know your instructors, so structure
your studying around what they feel is
most important.
8. Eat well. If you do the all-nighter
thing, you will probably crave junk food.
This is especially true if you’re PMSing.
Greasy or sweet snacks will only make
you feel sluggish though, so don’t give in!
Stick with a healthy diet.
9. Get comfortable. If you’ve got to
spend the day studying, treat yourself to
wearing your most comfortable jeans and
softest old sweatshirt. And, if it’s that time
of the month, try Playtex® tampons
because they are so comfortable you
won’t even feel them.
1 0. Be confident! Before the test, take
one last look at flashcards and take a
couple of deep breaths to relax. Be sure
to take along extra pens and/or pencils.
Go in with the confidence of knowing
you’re ready for anything!
Good
Luck!
So comfortable
you can’t even feel them.
