I find that a great way to study when you have other things on your mind is to play some classical music in the background. Doing this gives you nice, soothing sounds that don't have any vocals for you associate with things you may have been previously thinking about. Beethoven, Bach, Vivaldi...All are great choices!

If you're already a B student, a good way to study is to find a student who is struggling and tutor them with their homework.  Teaching something is the very best way to ensure you know it.\n\nAt the very least, find a study partner to work with and discuss your assignments with.\n\nAlso, it's very helpful to look at past tests and quizzes to review what you missed so you don't miss the same questions again.  Very often, subjects build on the prior content.  So, making sure you have a solid grasp of what you have done throughout the year will really help.\n\nGo in for extra help from the teacher.  Often, teachers will help you focus toward what's on test when students come in for extra help.\n\nFinally, study early.  If you start studying early in the week and build on that, you mind has the ability to store the information in both long term and short term memory.\n\nGood luck

If you lose your concentration in studies, something disturb is there in your mind. So, first you can find the solution for that, fix some commitment for that. Then you start the study. Take 10Mt's.break for every 30 to 45 Mt's between studies. Listen melodies music or meditation or magazine.

What works for me in college, I type up some notes (definitions or what you HAVE to know for tests) and study 5 at a time. Each time you get 5 down, go back to the beginning and study everything you have learned. Have someone ask you questions after you've studied.  This helps a lot. Good luck to you.

Be willing to learn new study skills is a good place to start. Also setting up a term calendar and study routine is a good idea. When you know what you have to have done and what amount of time you have to do it in you can better allocate your time.\n\nRead every day. If you have a paper to work on, start it the day it is assigned, even if you're just brain storming.\n\nMake sure you attend as many classes as humanly possible. Of course if you're in a car accident or mauled by dingos or something you can't go, but other than that, you should show up. Make sure you take notes and if you miss a class get notes from your classmates. Go over your notes, they may help you in guiding your reading and are invaluable study materials.\n\nTake care of your health. Get lots of sleep, drink plenty of water and eat healthy foods. I know that's not always possible but if given the choice between an apple and a chocolate bar, choose the apple. Try and get 20 minutes of exercise 3 times a week.\n\nKnow your limits. When you feel burned out or just a bit blue, call up a friend and go out for coffee to relax a bit. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Just because that guy in your calculus class can take 5 classes and work two part time jobs and get a 4.0 GPA doesn't mean you have to!\n\nMost important, remember that this time is for you. This is your education and your future. Don't peddle it away trying to live up to others expectations. Set your own goals and enjoy achieving them!

Do not study for all of your classes at the same time.\nFirst, pick the class that is either most difficult (or the one where your work is due soon) and concentrate only on that class. \nThen, make sure to take a break for awhile before studying the next subject. It takes a little bit of time for you to clear your head and refocus on a new subject so take that time to eat a snack, phone a friend, or check your email. Then when you feel "refreshed", tackle the next subject.\n\nI hope this helps. It works for me.

Meditation.\n\nThis can be the only solution to your problem. I have \n\nsolved my problem with meditation. We forget advices \n\nvery easily. If you keep taking people's advice about how \n\nto concentrate on your studies you will never come to any \n\nsolution. You will just think like, ok! I will do this. Most \n\nprobably, the next day you will forget because \n\nEVERYBODY hates to CHANGE unless THINGS \n\nCHANGE US. Very people knows how TO CHANGE \n\nTHINGS.\n\nRemember! sometime THINGS chooses US and \n\nsometime WE CHOOSE THINGS. Which is better?\n\nI dont know.\n\nTry meditaion. Meditate yourself and self-talk or give \n\nauto-suggestion to yourself repeatedly and repeatedly.\n\nFor your reference, about how to meditate. Visit:\n\nwww.tm.org\nwww.silvamethod.com\nwww.quanfey.org\n\nand some books on meditaion.\n\n\nMeditation is DOING something for improvement and \n\nlistening to advice is trying to do something for \n\nimprovement. Tell me which is better. Trying or just sit \n\nand start doing?\n\nTake action now.\n\nNow! go, do it!\n\nGoodLuck!

1.) Get in a study group. In college, most successful students study in groups, but in high school, it's rarely done. Group studying allows each person in the group to learn from the other persons in the group. There are 2 facets to this:\na.) If you know something, you can pass it on. Better yet, by teaching a skill that you've mastered (or are mastering), you help keep yourself sharp and help remember the skill.\nb.) If you are having trouble, the rest of the group can share the approaches that helped them understand the problem.\n\n2.) If your still having trouble, consider hiring a tutor, either for yourself, or to work with your group. \n\n3.) Get sleep. Get 8 hours of sleep a night except in rare circumstances. Losing sleep will invariably make it harder for you to learn and remember - studies show that your brain needs sleep to help it process and permanently learn new information learned during the day.\n\n4.) Don't spend too long on one thing. If you're going to study, limit sessions to 2 hours, then go do something else for an hour. Exercise or physical activity is actually a very good way to break up study sessions.\n\n5.) Talk to your teachers, and see if they can't either give you extra help, or barring that, ask if you they can provide you with pointers.\n\n6.) Try the Cornell Note Taking method. See sources.

Sounds like you have to ask yourself a bunch of quesitons about what's going on. Talk to the instructor and see if they have any thoughts on why you're struggling so much. \n\nI always did well on tests because I was calm. Make sure you get plenty of rest and eat a good breakfast or lunch before you take the test. When you study, try listening to music and then when the test comes to a point, try and recall the song you were listening to. Sometimes this gives you a new thought road to the answer.

1. Eat Right (Don't Skip Meals)\n2. Organize (don't just reread notes) create outlines from your notes & readings, organize the raw material you've collected all semester (this process in and of itself is a form of study)\n3. Study - again not just rereading, try testing your self (make up questions or see if your texts have questions at the end of chapters etc.)\n4. Sleep - staying up late cramming won't help it will actually decrease your ability to test well.  So get to bed and get some sleep\n5. Take a walk before the test, get the blood flowing and clear the mechanism (so-to-speak) this will help you.\n6. The standards (your first instinct answer is almost always right, but always go back and check your answers, make sure you read the question correctly, answered all parts of it etc.)\n7. When you finish a test, put it out of your mind (again, exercise can help you here) and move on to the next one.  Stressing over the result of a test that is finished can effect how well you do on the ones you haven't yet taken.\n\nGood Luck
