Exam preparation: Study tips

By -


1.   Preparation


Do not leave studying until the last minute, start preparation early and in good time. Make use of the time you have now and make a revision timetable. Start by writing down how many exams you have and if you know the days on which you have them. Organize your study time accordingly and find a balance you are comfortable with.

2.   Study Space



Find a place where you are comfortable working. This may be your room however most students will find that they are easily distracted here. The library is a good place to work, make sure you are working in a quiet place away from your friends whom may distract you.

 

3.   Group study or Work Alone or Both


Sometimes working in a group may be beneficial to you. You may find it that it helps you learn when you tutor your peers or it may be that your colleagues will explain a concept in a way that you understand. If you want to make use of group studying invite your friends to revise through past papers together. The UEA library has group study rooms and are available for booking catering for students up to 7 people and there is a computer in each room. If you prefer working alone, this is also productive and the library offers individual study rooms that can be booked for 24 hours.




4.   Study


Everyone has different learning styles and ways of studying. Make use of lecture recordings or highlight, rewrite your lecture notes in your own words or practice past exam papers. Some students may learn better by making use of electronic textbooks whilst others may prefer paper textbooks. Do not feel bad about the amount of work you have done in comparison to your room mate or friends. It may be that it takes you a little more time to understand. Sometimes getting through a few lecture notes a day is better than skim reading through all of them at once.

 



5.   Lastly Do not Panic    


Remember to take care of yourself. Have healthy food, take regular breaks to aid your concentration and have a good night’s sleep. Make sure you read the exam requirements so you are prepared. Go through past papers in advance so you are confident when it comes to exam time.
