How to Study for an Exam in One Day
The last few weeks of school can be scary for students of all ages, whether you’re cramming(恶补) for a test or trying to write an essay quickly. 20 These tips are designed to help you. Remain calm.
If you’ve left studying to the day before the test, it’s likely that you’re panicking about how you’re gong to get all of the work done in such a small amount of time. No matter that your circumstances are, it’s absolutely important that you don’t panic. 21 Set a timer to keep relaxed.
If you’re feeling overly stressed, take fifteen minutes before studying to clear your mind and relax. Try some yoga, listen to a favorite song, or make a quick call to a supportive friend. 22 Set that timer and be prepared to get to work once relaxation time is over. Find a quiet spot. __23 And while friends can provide some much-needed support, they’re not always the best study buddies(伙伴) when you’re pressed for time. If you’re serious about getting the work done, look for a quiet study spot away from distractions. 24__
Don’t make the mistake of beginning a study session without the proper supplies. Take the time to find a blank notebook, some pens, the course syllabus(课程大纲), the textbook, and your full class notes. Organize these materials neatly on a clean surface, so that you have the freedom and space to access them. A. Gather your materials.
