A's Study Tips

Hey guys! I've been insanely busy studying recently, and I thought it would be pretty cool if I made a study tips post.

1. Study, break, study

The way you study is generally controlled by the intervals your breaks are at. The productivity and amount of inmormation retains is significantly higher if you tak a break rather than study for hours at a time. I have a 'study cycle' which I use to time my breaks. This cycle does change depending on what subject I am doing, because subjects vary in difficulty and intensity, depending on what they r. My average study cycle goes something like this: study 30 mins, break 10 mins, study 20 mins, break 5 mins, study 10 mins break 15 mins. This adds up to roughly 90 minutes of study. 

2. Textbook time

If you read you textbook without an issue, that's great! If, like most people, you have a problem focusing on tiny print and big words, there are a variety of methods available to research on helping you concentrate. I have included two which I find particularly effective. 

3. Teach it

Teaching what you learn helps you understand the information you're studying. Good people to teach your information to are parents, siblings but most importantly classmates, because you both get something out of it!

Have you got any study tips?
