Studying before exams has always been a stressful time. From making revision schedules months before the exams to studying the night before- I think we’ve walked till both ends of the spectrum. Typically, my study habits just incorporated taking revision notes, and rereading till my concepts were solid. However, this wasn’t as effective because after studying for long hours I used to get tired, and couldn’t soak in any further information. So I adopted some new techniques to help increase my capacity to remember stuff I learnt. I started going over my notes on a weekly basis, so information would be fresh in my head. Before a major exam, I make a mini test for myself to get into practice, and I take breaks between my revision to increase my focus. I believe these tricks have really helped me avoid last minute pressure, and I’m able to space out my work properly.
