<p>I know that different people study different ways... but I need some ideas.
I haven't had to study before this year... and now I do.
How do I study so I know everything important from a 50+ page chapter? (And I know about the large print and titles thing) </p>
<p>Ideas?</p>
<p>For history classes I just take basic notes and go over them and everything comes back. For science, I stil haven't figured it out. AP Bio is killing me with tests on 200+ pages of text book reading + lab info. Good luck!</p>
<p>For me, I usually paint a picture in my mind. As you read, make symbols or pictures...or some sort of story in your mind.</p>
<p>It's kind of like a homemade movie.</p>
<p>I cram. All the time. Terrible habit.</p>
<p>Just reading it does the job for me.</p>
<p>CRAm big time the night before the test. Just read everything and take notes on stuff you don't know.</p>
<p>It depends on the class.</p>
<p>If it's some sort of humanities class, take good notes on the reading and highlight the important names, events, terms, etc RIGHT AFTER YOU TAKE THE NOTES. Then, a few days before the test, take them all out, read them through, and then type up a study sheet of sorts using mostly the highlighted information. That should be a collection of the most important terms and concepts, and typing it again will help you a) memorize it, and b) put it in logical order in your mind.</p>
<p>^^^^ really good idea</p>
<p>actually it could apply to science concepts as well</p>
