Get Organised
Stay ahead of the curve and plan ahead. Create a schedule that will specify what work you’re going to do and on which days of the week. Make provision for off days as well.
Don’t Multitask
Make sure that when you’re busy with your studies, that you are only focused on that. Cut out any distractions. Multitasking may seem doable, but focus on one thing at a time.
Divide Your Work
Break your work into smaller chunks. This way your study sessions won’t seem so overwhelming. Reward yourself whenever you complete your assigned work for the day.
Sleep
This is often an overlooked habit, but getting enough rest is important. Try sleeping for at least 8 hours every night. If you’re tired you won’t perform at your best.
Set a Schedule
When do you work your best? Are you a night owl or early bird? Consider this when setting up your study schedule.
Take Notes
Taking notes will keep you engaged during class, but it will also make it much easier to identify which parts are important to study for exams.
Study
Yes, this may seem a little too straightforward. But, do you know how to study? There are study methods and techniques that make studying much more effective. Research them!
Find a Study Group
A study group offers support and encouragement. You’ll be able to discuss concepts, go over work and quiz one another. Find a group of people who have the same goals as you. This way you all will be on the same page.
Ask Questions
There’s no such thing as a dumb questions. Your lecturers want you to engage with them and the work. So ask away!
