To study successfully, the following steps are a few of the most exclusive ones that can help you out in the long run.
1. Outline and rewrite your notes
Most of the students apply this trick to study successfully. While you study if you keep underlining and outlining the important things, it can help you at the time of revision. Underlining when to study even keeps your concentration intact. Rewriting your notes can help you memorise them.
Outlining words can act as a learning tool for your own words and structure.
2. Use memory games (mnemonic devices)
Memory games can be used to remember a piece of information in a unique way that is remembering the first letter of every word.
It can facilitate the entire learning process by making things easy for you to remember. For example: if you want to remember the order of planets, i.e., Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, you can remember this by the following line (My Very Excited Mother Just Served Us Nine Pies). The first letter of every word will help you remember the planet names in order.
3. Practice by yourself or with friends
‘Practice makes a man perfect’- this phase is practically correct as when you practice your subjects, you will see your improvements.
When you practice with your friends, this can help you understand the mistakes that you are making.
4. Give your regular mind breaks
It is important for you to give your regular mind breaks which will keep your mind fresh. When you will study, you can grasp more with a fresh mind. Studying at a stretch becomes monotonous. Hence, regular breaks are necessary.
5. Focus on core material
Study materials in a syllabus must be divided according to the importance of core materials and elaborative materials, theorems, formulae, and important principles.
