No, I'm not.  I'm using my memory to recall where I left a binder that might be on a train right now.

Here are some tips that work best for me.  Hopefully they will work for you too.\n\nIf you have one exam to study, divide the work up into small "chunks".  This will improve your chance of remembering the information.  Study for only about an hour at a time.  Often times if you study past an hour, the information will be a big blur and difficult to comprehend and remember.  You may always study more, but give yourself a break.\n\nIf you have more than one exam, follow the tips above.  Just make sure you are studing all of the subject areas everyday.\n\nHope that helps,\n\nAlex

you should study a little daily to do well, but in crunch you can use your subconscious to help you.  Look at each page a few minutes dont try to read every word, just let your brain "take a picture" so to speak.  do this before you go to sleep and the first thing upon waking.  When you are taking the test, if you dont know the answer for sure, go with your first instinct then DO NOT GO BACK AND CHANGE IT, YOUR FIRST INSTINCT IS MORE OFTNE CORRECT BECAUSE YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND IS RECALLING SOMETHING YOU CANT BRING INTO CONSCIOUS THOUGHT AT THE M0MENT.  \nthe most important thing is that u dont go back and change your answer. Never go back and change answers

No. You may get the temporary satisfaction of getting the grade you want, but the long term result won't be as pleasant.  If you get caught, you will end up with a big fat ZERO--which is worse then if you at least try and get the best score you can fairly.  You may pass now by cheating, but you may not have the information you need later to do something else. For instance, a higher level class or subject.  Think about it.

When I was at school, I used to repeat the stuff over and over.I used to even make my own questions and answer them to make sure that I recall everything before the exam.\nI wish you all the best :)

The way i like to study for a test is to read the material, think it through, and then try to write it down in point form. this is good because i will see what i cant remember, and the pointers can be used as a review.

Ok for a test....What i do is get notecard and on one side write the question and on the other one the answer...I know it takes time and lots of notecards, but i can promise you from experience you will remember 99.99% of it...Just try it one time and study them...and youll see.

on a standardized test grade yourself on each page. if there are four questions on the page make sure you got 3 right. 10 questions & right. if you do this then you will surely pass. as far as studying (Seriously) I used to study in the bathroom. turn on the fan and no one will bother you.\nmake sure you earn every 70 you get and dont cheat no matter what.

Read, get a clear understanding of the material, then review. Some people think physically writing key points out on paper will help them to remember information better.

Simply put, just memorize more and more often. Look at something every day for 30 mins and chances are, you will remember it.\n\nYou can also use visual cues to memorize something. For example, if you have to go golfing, out to dinner, and buy a hat, you might think about a guy wearing a hat, swinging a golf club, with a piece of food in his mouth, then you'll remember all three.\n\nAlso, understanding is an important part. If you understand what a definition means, then you'll remember it better. Write down that definition and say it aloud just as often as you read it, and you'll remember 3x better than if you had just scanned it over.\n\nAs for diet, it doesn't really matter. Try to eat something healthy, that will get the body fuels pumping. Plenty of sleep, and you'll remember.

I've done a lot of research on this issue. The simple answer is:\n1. Adopt good eating habbits: Eat a potato, mellon or such other stuff regularly. It deals with the physical aspects of your memory.\n\n2. Adopt good nervous habbits: This way you can do a work with dedication.\n\n3. Drink water more and more, atleast 8 glass daily.\n\n4. Sleep good enough.\n\n5. Change your reading habbits: like take every question easy....stroll through the stuff before digging into it......and make good revision routine......\n\nIs the answer sufficient?

If i were you, I would try to review as much as possible the night before. In my psychology class last semester, we learned that if you study the night before a test, you actually retain more information because your brain has had a chance to store it away into long-term memory. Then, the next morning, you just need to review and you'll be fine!...I like to use my notes to study, and index cards for terms. Also, find some people in your class to study with. It always helps!

Well it depends on if you want to improve your long term memory or your short term memory - they're separate entities.  I suggest looking into some psychology texts in your local library.\n\nMemory is all about practise - it's like learning your times tables when you're young.  Repetition is a good way to do it, but is more suited to memorising something specific.\n\nRemove as many outside distractions as possible when trying to learn something, or else your focus will be split in several directions.

hey marina\nCHILLAX\n\ni. Revision tips\n\nDevelop a timetable to monitor your progress. Make sure you allocate adequate time for fun and relaxation as well. \n\nWhile revising a subject, practise writing. This would be an actual simulation of the examination itself. Plan your revision and complete it in time. This will give you a sense of achievement and build your confidence.\n\nWhile revising, vary subjects and their difficulty so you don't get bored or disheartened. Set realistic targets of what you can achieve in the time available. \n\nSpend as much time on recall as on reading. Practise by writing answers as you would do in the exam. This will help you remember the important points when you answer each paper. \n\nPractise writing answers under exam conditions. Take three hour tests, without a break in between, preferably at the same time as that of the exam. This will help your body clock adjust to the examination time and conditions. \n\nii. Time out\n\nTo prevent mental fatigue, take a short break as soon as you notice your mind is losing concentration. Stick to activities that do not break your study continuum during these breaks. Avoid television and loud music. You will then be able to come back to your revision refreshed.

1/  Make crib notes of important points to remember...these are good in jostling your memory...\n\n2/  After an hour of study...take a practise test on that subject/chapter...even if it is an old test...this breaks the monotomy of just reading and helps you see what testers would be looking for...so you know what to retain and what is okay to "know broadly"\n\n3/  Mix up your studying with discussion groups with your friends...be serious about it though....agree to read on a chapter and meet and discuss....you will actually remember more if you make the subject/material "come alive". Also a great way to learn difficult material....\n\n4/  Study early in the morning when you are fresh and likely to remeber more then spend the afternoon doing soemthing else....practise tests, discussion groups or just relaxing.

I do something I call indexing to remember.  Write down the highlights of what I learned for each subject in a notebook, along with the corresponding page in my notes.  Every month or two I go through the book to look at old topics and what i feel i dont remember I look up really quickly, since I learned it once it comes back very fast.  Works wonderfully. It's always worth a try if your organized enough to do it.

Write it down, then repeat it over and over at least seven times.  Close your eyes and try to visualize what you are trying to memorize.  Associate it with a picture, color, or person, anything that may help you recall.
