Revise regularly from "summary" of College Study Hacks: 101 Ways to Study Easier and Faster by Melanie Falconer
Regularly revising is key to learning and retaining information. Taking the time to go through your notes and study materials will help boost your understanding and recall of the subject matter. This is a great way to ensure success in your studies.- It’s important to keep up with your studies, so making sure to revise regularly is key! It might be a good idea to add reminders to ensure that topics are reviewed on a frequent basis.
- Regularly revisiting material already learned not only solidifies knowledge, but it also helps to build understanding and bring clarity by fostering greater understanding.
- Sticking to a timetable and setting achievable goals makes revising more manageable and much less daunting! This keeps everything organized and allows enough time to check each subject thoroughly.
- Noting down progress along the way helps measure how far you have come and encourages further learning — this could be done through writing flashcards or jotting down notes, such as highlights and charts.
- Dedicating regular intervals for review helps to strengthen memory and keeps facts fresh in students' minds. It can make studying and quick recall easier, even when exams are approaching quickly.
- Breaking large chunks of information into smaller sections can help if you find yourself becoming overwhelmed. Work through each topic one by one, breaking them further if needed, until complete understanding is achieved.
- Seek outside advice; sometimes it can be difficult to give ourselves adequate feedback when studying, ask another student for support and if relevant attend tutorial sessions to fill any knowledge gaps.
