The best way to study

[The_Chief]

ok, well me and a girl made a bet in history, and i need to study my ASS off to get a hundred or close to it so i dont lose. whats the best and easiest way to study? just read over it? repeat things? what. and have you ever made a bet over school work or a test or anything?

EDIT: we dont use text books. also this is the only test for this like section-y part.

Read the chapters with a highlighter in hand, highlight important passages, and go back over those passages.

 

[El Poncho]

Well, I don't do history but i'm sure if you read over your topic so you know it off by heart and then do some practice past papers from previous exams.(but I don't know how it works in history as I said)

 

[Sassafrass]

I found listening to music helped me when I studied. And no, never made any bets related to study activities.

 

[Metric Monkey]

My friends and I always make bets on who does the best in school tests, and I always win. As for studying, repetition usually does it for me.
That, or just taking notes of things which seem important.

 

[Shock and Awe]

I am to awesome to study.

 

[BenzSmoke]

To not start a thread online about ways to study, and actually study.

Easy. Make a time machine, and travel back to the period you want to study. It's either that or fall into a bath with a tivo full of recorded documentaries about the times.

Ok the best way to actually are these:

Get interested into what your studying, i didn't care much about soil types in geography therefore didn't learn, yet when it comes to things that peak my interest i remember lots of information. Get interested boy!

Also when you teach information the rate of what you remember is drastically improved, find someone (even us) to try to educate about what your learning and you will retain the information better.

My last suggestion is having debates, i always find i learn more when i debate a subject with someone because A, i gather more information about the subject to go against his opinion and B, i'm learning the other side of the arguement from him.

That any help?

[Simalacrum]

it really depends on what suits you best unfortunately. Everyone has different ways of doing stuff.

The only concrete support I can give you is don't over work yourself - take breaks, sleep and eat properly, make sure your ready for the test itself by keeping energy.

 

[Datalord]

Ok, i rarely ever study
I know all the history i need for my classes, i can reconstruct calculus from the basic theory all the way to vector calculus, i know the chem, bio, and phys for all my science classes, how can you study for band?, morality and justice is retardedly easy, and you can't really study for english.



BUT if you must study, learning should always be in the context of prior learning, so if you're studying something, always try to relate it to the last unit or chapter, try to relate everything you learn to something you already know.

Teach us, or me. You can also start a debate on here i guess, i also have not got tivo. I have sky plus HD (lulz @ 3view, lulz lulz lulz).

What is it your actually actually studying?

 

[thiosk]

If the bet does not in some way involve her ass, I'd say you'd be better off just sleeping on it.

 

[Kinguendo]

Get the book that you need to learn, place your head face down on your desk, hold the book above your head and then continue to beat your head in with the book... Hence the popular and true phrase "Beat some sense into you.".

 

[Enigmers]

read a passage, write down what you remember, then check what you missed and fill in the gaps.

Also, doodle in your notes. This encourages you to go back and look at them later.
