Study Tips for Exams
  • Designate: a space at home as a study corner.
  • Organize:  most classes give some kind of study guide.  Organize notes, past tests, assignments prior to sitting down to study.
  •  Procrastinate:...NOT...start this early.  You have two weeks once we're back from the Winter Break.  Start the process then.  Not the night before.
  • Keep Calm:  Focus on the parts of the semester where you struggled.  The parts you know well - look at and then move on.  Spend the time things you've been unsure of.
  • Get Help:  attend the after school labs, ask to talk with your teacher during a study hall, make arrangements to come in before school.
  • Chunk:  ROYGBIV (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet)...use mnemonic devices do help.  Your brain then stores the information as ONE instead of 7 individual pieces.  Great for any subject.
