10 Study
Tips to
Keep in
Mind
Tip # 1
Establish a consistent time and
place to study each day.
Look for a place that has
minimal distractions and
allows you to fully
concentrate.
Tip # 2
Begin studying immediately when
you sit down with the intention of
studying. Checking e-mails and
IM gets you off track and makes it
less likely that you are going to
have a successful and productive
study session.
Tip # 3
Plan exactly what you want to
accomplish during the study
session prior to the session.
Make a list of these tasks and
stick to it during the study
session.
Tip # 4
Break large tasks down into smaller,
more manageable tasks. This will
help you to maintain focus and
complete the task quicker and
easier.
Tip # 5
Log what you have done during a
study session so that you can
look back and see just how much
you accomplished. This will also
help you to keep track of what has
already been completed and what
still needs to be done.
Tip # 6
Keep your study supplies and
designated studying space neat
and organized. This will let you
find what you need with ease and
will allow you to reduce wasted
time created by searching for
missing items.
Tip # 7
Try to limit daydreaming by allowing
yourself adequate breaks. Your
goal should be to stay as focused
as possible during the study
session.
Tip # 8
Get sleep! Getting enough sleep
helps you to study better and
remember more material. Limit
caffeine a few hours before bed in
order to assure that sleep is
uninterrupted.
Tip # 9
Eat a healthy well balanced diet.
This will help you to feel better,
and will allow you to better absorb
and retain the information you
study.
Tip # 10
Exercise! Exercising will help you
to increase your memory which
makes it easier for you to retain
important material. Exercising will
also improve your overall
confidence.
