Preparing
for the test:
ORGANIZE CLASS
HANDOUTS:
Keep notes,
worksheets, quizzes and tests organized. |
|
|
|
KEEP UP WITH
NOTES AND READINGS.
Use the night before for reviewing old
material, not for learning new material. |
|
|
|
|
REVIEW NOTES
AND READINGS DAILY.
Forgetting takes its greatest toll in 24
hours!
Review daily so you can clear up any questions while
the material is still fresh in your mind.
Periodic reviews should help you do better on tests.
Also, you should need less time to study on the night
before the test. |
|
|
|
|
MAKE
FLASHCARDS.
Try:
Questions on one side, answers on the other.
Terms on one side, definitions on the other;
Lists on one side, questions on the other; or,
Formulas on one side, meanings on the other.
