HOW TO COMPLETE YOUR EXAM PAPER ON TIME

Image
Many times students fail to score well, not because they do not know the answers to the questions asked, but because they are unable to complete the paper in the given time. Here are tips to ensure that you complete the paper in the stipulated time and pass with flying colors. 1. Start writing from the get-go Often, when a paper begins, before you start writing you may be tempted to look around and note people’s expressions or look through the whole paper and evaluate what you know and what you don’t. But do not give in to these temptations. Start writing the paper from the minute you get it. You must understand that each minute saved is a minute earned in the examination hall. 2. Do not waste time pondering over answers Write what you know and leave what you don’t for the time being. Once you have finished writing the answers for all the questions you know, revisit the questions you have left and try to answer as many as you can. 3. Do speed training with sample papers before exa

Top Ten Study Tips

There are as many different ways to study as there are different people. The following list is tips that have worked best for the greatest number of people. Some of them may work for you, some of them won't, but try them all and work out your own study plan. You cannot change the number of hours, but you can decide how to best use them. 1) Study in the Same Place Find a secluded place, away from distractions, with plenty of space to work. Once you've found it, study at the same place every time. It could be a desk in your bedroom, the kitchen table, or the local library. Laying down on your bed or sprawled across the living room rug are generally not good study places. Also make sure that you keep your spine erect for better level of concentration. 2) Study at the Same Time Figure out a suitable time of day you can concentrate best, and what works into your schedule. Use that time every day to study. Try to make sure it is not too late in the evening. It is important to

Bite Sized Pieces

Is the prospect of having to wade through a huge lesson or worse - the whole syllabus, making you feel panicky? Relax. First tell yourself you can do it. Next step – assess yourself honestly and decide how much you can handle well without your concentration wavering. After having ascertained how much you can ‘chew’ determine the size of the ‘bite’. Assuming you can study one page thoroughly in five minutes, break down your lesson into ‘bite sized’ portions assigning five minutes to each page. Now take it one ‘bite’ at a time and before you know it you would have ‘eaten’ through the whole lesson and even ‘digested’ it well. ( http://www.tips4me.com/tips/study )

STRIKING THE RIGHT BALANCE

Being a good student doesn't mean you have to drop all social activities and dive into your books. It's possible to have a healthy social life while earning good grades. Balance is the key. Here’s how you can go about doing so: 1. Decide for yourself at the start of the term that you won't let schoolwork sweep you away. It's important to have this resolve as a foundation. 2. Plot out your weekly schedule on a grid. Chances are, you'll have small gaps between classes during the week, and longer stretches of free time on the weekends. If you can manage to fit bits of schoolwork in these gaps that will leave effectively leave the weekend free and at your convenience. 3. Set aside at least one large chunk of time each week for free time - maybe all of Saturday, for instance. 4. Make sure that every time you find yourself in one of those between-class gaps, you use the time efficiently: Read a few pages, run some quick errands, spell-check your paper. 5. Keep i

ART OF QUESTIONING- MASTER IT!

You are one of the most popular faces in class, not because you are funny or have great note taking abilities but because you ask the most number of questions. In fact, you might not know this but some of your classmates could recognize you by simply looking at your arm. Although, being inquisitive is not a bad quality, but it is important to ask the right questions so as not to irritate your instructor and others in the class and also to maximize learning. Here are a few tips for honing your questioning skills: 1. Be precise A question needs to be crisp and to-the-point. It doesn’t need to have a beginning, middle and an end. If you beat around the bush, chances are your professors won’t be sure which part of the chapter you haven’t understood, or need an explanation for. 2. Be clear about what you wish to know It can be a question that’s open and debatable, or one that’s closed and factual. The former kind would make for wide interpretation and opinionated answers which expre
