10 . Highly Effective Study Habits

For students, sometimes it’s not easy to concentrate on studying. If you want better grades, you need more effective study habits. The key to effective studying isn’t studying longer but studying smarter.     1    

● Plan when you’re going to study.

Successful students schedule specific times when they are going to study—and then they stick to their schedule.     2     Even if you can catch up with your studies, creating a weekly routine will enable you to succeed in your education in the long run.

● Set a specific goal for each study.

    3     You need to know exactly what you need to achieve during each study session. Before you start, set a study goal that supports your overall academic goal (eg. memorize 30 vocabulary words for an upcoming exam).

●     4    

As your most difficult assignment or subject will need the most effort, you should start with it first. Once you’ve finished the most difficult work, it will be much easier to complete the rest. Believe it or not, this will greatly improve the effectiveness of your study sessions.

● Practice by yourself.

Practice makes perfect. You can practice by yourself by testing yourself with either practice exams, or flash cards. If a practice or old exam from a course is available, use it as a guide.     5    

We’re confident that if you develop the habits above, you’ll see a great improvement in your academic success.

A．Improve your study effectiveness.

B．You should study regularly all the time.

C．Start with the most difficult subject first.

D．Studying without direction is not effective.

E．You can begin studying smarter with these study habits.

F．Such exams help you understand what to expect in the future exam.

G．Students who study without a schedule usually do not perform so well.
