Positive study habits

 

     Studying is an essential element in retaining information and achieving high marks in school, but often, students do not know how to study effectively. Of several B-UHS students interviewed, many claimed they either don’t study or don’t study well.

    While studying can become overwhelming, there are ways to lessen the load and make it more reasonable. Studying for 30-50 minutes with ten-minute breaks is the best way to obtain and retain information. Writing things out on paper multiple times is effective in “sticking” knowledge to the brain. Most people aren't necessarily bad at studying, but they put it off too long or don't do it enough. Studying as soon as possible, from the time notes are taken until the time of the test, as many times as possible, is the most effective way to gain information.

    Even though most people don’t want to admit it, sometimes saying, “It doesn’t work for me,” studying is a vital component to academic success. For this reason, study habits help to make it easier if a student is not skilled at studying, obtaining information, or hate studying. Trying these tips might just save a student on very important tests like the ACT or SAT, or with common math test.
