Most students hate tests. The fear of failing them is really unpleasant.
1. Survey your textbook before you read.
Take a couple of minutes to find the word-list, index, questions and other important information. Then, when you sit down to study, you’ll know where to find the answers you are looking for.
2.
As you read, summarize each section of the chapter on a post-it note. After you have read the entire chapter, go back and review the notes. It is an easy and efficient way to review information. And you can easily find the information you need.
3. Make your own practice test.
After you finish reading, pretend you are a professor writing a test for the chapter. Review the material you just read and make up your own practice test. Include all vocabulary words, study questions, and highlighted words you can find, as well as any other important information.
4. Create visual flashcards.
Flashcards will help you remember important terms, people, places and dates. On the front of the card, write down the term or the question. This will help ensure that you grasp the study material.
| A．Use sticky notes. |
| B．Prepare a note book. |
| C．Take the test to see if you remember the information. |
| D．If all the questions are included, there is no need to worry. |
| E．But there are a few tricks you can learn how to avoid the worry. |
| F．On the back write down the definition or the answer. |
| G．Make sure you read any study questions before you read the chapter. |
