April is here, which means for those of you in school, you are in the last stretch before summer break!! Summer break is really exciting and a fantastic thing to look forward too, but you can't loose focus yet. School is very important and it's vital that you keep your head in the game for that last little bit of time. I know that isn't always easy with projects, classes, finals, and everything else going on in everybody's lives.
I know that final tests are always a stressful time and can be scary. With them being the last real obstacle before your summer break, here are some tips to help you not stress out so much about your finals and do some great studying that will have you acing all of them!
Study Tips
1. Study for small periods of time with breaks. Study for 10 min, then take a 3 minute break to grab a snack or something, then study for another 10 minutes. You won't get warn out this way and retain more information.
2. Study the vital points. Don't sit and stare at your textbook and try to memorize it. You can't memorize everything and I can guarantee all of it isn't important. Key words and ideas are a great place to start.
3. Flash cards! They are a great way to study and because they are small they are easy to throw in a purse or backpack and take with you. You never know when you are going to get a break and have some time to study.
4. Don't cram! Start studying a week or so before the test and study the material slowly, over the course of the time. Sitting for hours at once studying the information isn't going to do you any good.
5. SLEEP!! Don't stay up all night before the test studying. Your body needs sleep to retain the information. So put the books and notes down. Get a good nights sleep. It does wonders.
Love Always,
