#STUDY TECHNIQUES to improve grades

STUDY TECHNIQUES



Page content:-
Why choose proper study technique?
What are the various studying techniques?


                Study technique means the time, the way by which you study. The way of study and the time of study affects your study.

Time of study:-

            In the morning you relax and fresh, also your brain oxygen level is high. It helps to memorize maximum information. In the morning noise level is also less. Some people like to study at night. In the night your brain oxygen level is low. Your energy level is low. It affects your study but if you ask me, when do I study? Then answer- I like to study late night and in the morning. My friend who is topper. He likes to study in the morning. A maximum number of toppers study in the morning. I am also topper with state rank 452 in diploma result. If you are asking me which time should you study? Answer- definitely in the morning because it is scientifically proven that studying in the morning is more efficient than studying in late night. It depends upon you which one is suitable for you. For example, I prefer to do a study at night. But studying at night can give health issues like acidity, not getting sleep etc. (I am also facing stomach problems so now, I don't study at night.) So study in the morning is more beneficial than studying in late night.

The way of study:-

            We are going to discuss about one study method. In this method, we have to take a break after studying 45 minutes. This study technique is a very effective & famous method. In the break of 15 minutes, you have to do the work that will relax you & make you fresh & you become ready to do the study again with the same efficiency. What you do in 15 minutes is very important. you may think to watch a movie in 15 minutes. Maybe there are chances that you will think about the movie while studying. e.g. what will be happened? Will the villain kill the heroine? Due to which You will not able to concentrate on study & this will lead to loss of time & you may get frustrated and the stress due to frustration will effect on your performance.

Revision:- #use of Ebbinghaus curve

           Take help of Ebbinghaus curve which will help you in memorizing stuff very well. Now as I said I am going to tell you more about a curve or we can say the use of curve. You can use the curve by planning the revision schedule. You can improve your grades with the best schedule. What will be the most efficient schedule? I think every human is different, has different ideas, difference habits, different hobbies. So for everyone may be scheduled such a that it is most efficient. I am going to tell you my schedule.
In the first day do study while studying highlight the main point & understand concepts.
         On next day read highlighted points. It takes very less time.
After a week again read the text. Frequently I skip this step by just reading highlighted points.
After two weeks read only highlighted points. It will take very less time. Means if you require one hour to study one concept then this step will take just 10-15minutes.
At the end of the month do the revision of whole concept (not just highlighted points).
          I don't follow all the steps as I am an engineering student. I like to study 4-5 days of study before the exam. The people want to do top can follow above method & the people want to do a study one day before the exam can use the following method.
Attend all the lecturers.
Understand the concept deeply.
Highlights the important points.
Check the previous year papers.
Sort out Important concepts.
Study 25-45% syllabus before the exam.
          Complete whole syllabus in 2-3 days before the exam. If you ask me what do I take 15 minutes to break? Answer: Yes! But One day before the exam I don't need a break because my concentration is too good. As discussed in articles- "how to improve memory & how to improve concentration," I have explained, How do stress effects your concentration? And I use the techniques of improving memory from the article "how to improve memory." It helps me for memorizing maximum information & also boring concepts.
          You must do work which is going to relax you like walking, listening song, eating food etc. Don't eat food which is heavy do digest, walk-in greenery place etc.
          Also, you can change the subject after every one hour it keeps your interest in the study. It also helps in storing information in your brain with higher efficiency.
1-5 steps are done in a semester.
6 before the exam.
7 in 2-3 days before the exam.
