If you believe that studying hard is the only way to perform well in exams, then you’re absolutely wrong. Prosperous performance in exams depends on the union of various factors. Here are a few useful tips to consider during exam preparation.
- Maintain a Study Timetable
A great study helps you stay focussed and reduces stress. A few tips to develop a solid study plan includes:
● To establish clear goals
● Budgeting time realistically
● Prioritizing study time based on the subject difficulty
- Exercise daily
A morning jog or a workout, as simple as stretching your body, before an exam can do wonders. According to a study, it was seen that high aerobic fitness increased the speed of learning and improved focus.
- Shun Stressful People
Do not plan study sessions with anxious friends and classmates, especially if they complain regarding the pending work. Their stress adds on to your stress making you doubt your abilities.
- Sleep Well
Sleep optimizes cognitive performance as new knowledge blends into our existing knowledge base while we sleep. Seven to eight hours of sleep, every day are advised for optimal performance.
- Constantly Remind yourself of Learning
Develop a learning environment by sticking notes of formulas and units such as the unit of radioactivity and reminders on mirrors, the fridge, the door and on the television. Little drawings and colourful markers can be made use of to help you trigger your memory.
- Eat healthily and stay hydrated
One studies better when the brain is fueled well. It is essential to meet the daily mineral and vitamin requirements of the brain to work at its best. Stay hydrated because water allows chemical reactions to take place in the body and therefore keeps the body functioning on top form.
