Every person is born with a particular potential which is unique to him.
People are of different types and not all of them are brilliant
students. Many work hard to get good marks, while others don't and yet
manage to score well during examinations. There are also students who
study hard but don't get the desired percentage. How to prepare for
exams is a big question. Here are a few preparation tips to help
students ace in exams:
Good Time Table
Before starting with the studies, students should design their own
time-table which directs all the material that has to be covered and
tells them how much is needed to be studied each day. A schedule of
every subject should be made with different priorities. Tough subjects
and the ones in which a student is weak should be given more hours, and
easier ones should be given less hours with sufficient intervals between
each subject. The timetable should very importantly have breaks in
between.
Loose that Fear
Fear and stress are one of the major factors which tend to become an
obstacle in getting high percentage. One should loose all the fear and
free his mind.
Approximating a certain score to achieve is beyond our control .This
fact also needs to be understood by parents, who should not pressurize
their children but rather boost up their confidence.
Don't Cram, Make Notes
Students should let go off the cramming part as it is not a good method
of studying. Instead of this, they should make short notes while
studying. Cramming everything can result in forgetting everything and
making brief notes can help in remembering all points while revising the
subject.
Where to Study?
If the big question of where to study confuses you, the answer to it is
very simple-study in a place where you feel comfortable, relaxed and
where you can concentrate properly. If you can, study early morning,
head to a library or any place where you find a quiet ambience.
Trust God and Yourself
Students should meditate or pray well before the exam as it helps in
relaxing their mind and also provides immense energy and peace to the
mind. And it is much important that you are confident about yourself of
producing splendid result.
Sleep and Eat Well
The biggest mistake students commit during exam time is that they don't
sleep and eat well. They think sleeping is a waste of time. They should
believe in the fact that they need to sleep between 6-8 hours a day.
They also need to take care of their diet. They should try and avoid eat
junk food, and instead include food which supplies continuous energy to
their brain for a longer period of time.
Time to Study
Time is possibly the most important factor. According to a research
conducted, human brain is in its most active state between 5 am to 8 am
in the morning and in the evening between 7 pm to 11 pm. Therefore,
students who study during these timings have the maximum retention power
in comparison with others.
Use Creative Techniques
If students find their subjects boring, they can convert their chapters
into various types of games such as repetition, flash cards and
mnemonics. Students should sit with their notebook and write over and
over, draw flash cards with information on them and go over them
regularly, design funny rhymes or word associations to help remember the
points.
Never Cheat in Exam Hall
Students should always be advised by their parents as well their
teachers as to not use any kind of malpractice in exam hall as it may
prove to be harmful for them and their future. If an answer is not known
by them, they shouldn't attempt it as they have to prove no one but
themselves.
Write Neat and Present Well
When students write neatly and present their answer sheet in a proper
way, they have more chances of securing high marks. Many times the
teacher is not able to read all the answers but if she gets impressed by
the way it has been presented then it would definitely lead to less
deduction of marks.
