Try to absorb the information using several techniques. Most people learn by seeing information, hearing information, writing information and then discussing information. Come up with ways to study using all 4 ways (or as many as you can) and you should improve.
Reply:Talk to your teacher before each test about what important topics you should be sure to know. They won't always give you specifics, but anything at all they tell you in response should help. A good teacher wants their students to do well and will appreciate the fact that you care enough to ask questions. It is important to understand what information the test is covering so you don't waste your time studying something you won't need to know.





Also, be sure to spread out your study time. Even if you study a lot, if you only study the night before a test you will probably not do as well as you would like. This is called "cramming" and if you do this you won't retain any information for very long (meaning that you will forget it shortly). Begin studying about a week before the test, even if you only study a little each day.





Everybody has different ways they prefer to study. Try some things out and see what works for you.Think about whether you focus better in a quiet place or with some background noise. Do you study better in the afternoon or late at night? Do you need a comfy chair to study in or do you focus more in a straight-backed chair at a desk? Find a study space that works for you and use it. A good study environment is key!
Reply:What i usually do is read over all my notes and write them out again. But if none of the ways to study help you don't work... you may suffer from Test anxiety.
Reply:make sure your study time is quality. if you have any distractions you will not obtain the info as well.





also, be sure to take BREAKS! a good half hour will do a mind and body good (if you're trying to prepare for a test).





just make sure when the info is first introduced, you understand it the first time around--this doesn't mean memorize it! just be introduced to it and get familiar with it. as the test approaches, then start to prepare for test-specific studying.
Reply:The thing that helps me is I sort of make it into a fun little game. i ask someone to Quiz me as if they were a host of a game show. The prize is usually a break from studying or some sort of food. This helps me alot.
Reply:You can never study too much you should talk to the teacher and ask him/her to give the class a more accurate study guide get information about from diffrent places like the web,books etc.Just study in advance...Good Luck...SMILE...U can do it!!!
