Top Ten Ways to Get Ready for Exams
Stressed for exams? Want to give advice for exams? If either applies to you, this list is for you!
This is a very good idea. Don't stay up all night studying for a test. Start studying a couple of days before the exam instead of starting the night before. You are more likely to do well if you study days before the test.
Sleep is very important for good brain functioning. The more sleep, the better.
A well-rested mind and body is very important if you want to do well on an exam.
Even though you may have free time from school, it is better to extend your studies at home months or weeks before the finals. At least an hour or two will help you absorb the knowledge you need for the exam. It will benefit you in the long run. Just study smart.
I would study in blocks of time for each subject, with a minimum of 2 hours for each subject spread out over at least 2 different days. Don't overstudy or else you could lose sleep.
This list is super accurate and so true! I do well because of this! Specifically #1 and #2! When getting ready for exams, you need to study hard, practice, get some sleep, and focus!
Cereal just won't cut it. You need eggs, sausages, and pancakes even for exam readiness. The food helps your brain function.
Exams are much easier when you feel like you will do well. Stay optimistic, no matter what, and be sure you will reach your goal. Stress hinders your performance in exams.
It's been proven that studying without breaks harms one's mental health, so it is definitely important to remember to take breaks once in a while.
Free time is just as important as homework and studying. Just don't have too much free time, and don't get carried away.
Asking for help will most likely get you the answer you are looking for.
Dark chocolate and mint chocolate also help. Dark chocolate reduces stress, so I often take it the night before. Mint chocolate infuses that with focus, and I take some the next morning.
Studies have shown that mints help focus, so these will be very helpful for exams.
If you are confused about something, your partner will probably know what it is. Also, it's always good to be with friends.
Nothing better than a shot of affection and a shot of competition to help you ace the exam!
Surprised this wasn't on the list. It's one of the most important things if you want to score high in your exams. Review and revise.
The Newcomers
When you do your homework, you can easily study without any problem.
Homework is important for grades, and it will help you get practice in.
Try to balance your free time and your studying time because if you get sidetracked and forget to study before an exam, there will be a lot of stress on the exam day.
Exams should be the first priority, with other things (sports, clubs, music, TheTopTens) second.
Reading until you sleep will give you time for studying and sleeping.
I diffuse oils with specific scents the night before. I allocate peppermint to core maths, rosemary to core physics, basil to further physics, and so on. Having set these stimuli in my mind, I later place the oil onto a tissue which I take into the exam. It works wonders.
