<p>I have a test on Friday and I need to memorize 40 pages of relatively new information. What are some methods you've tried that have worked??? It's not that I'm a procrastinator (well, maybe I am, just a little), it's just that everyone (including me) has been busy with APs....so......</p>
<p>Please help me CCers! :)</p>
<p>Read every single thing, review key points, read every single thing again, review key points once more, skim the whole thing again.</p>
<p>Learn through osmosis…works everytime.</p>
<p>I memorized 300 pages of new information over about 3 days for AP Psych, so 40 should be manageable. Read the pages, do a lot of it out loud, repeat important themes/lists/info over and over to yourself. About 5 minutes after you’ve stopped repeating some information, try to say it out loud again to ensure you can, and once you come to any convenient break – perhaps every 10 pages if your information isn’t organized into chapters – test yourself or have someone test you. Review the concepts you missed after each evaluation and try to gain a greaetr understanding of them.
TBH, you have until Friday and you have 40 pages. I don’t think that’s really cramming, considering that many classes usually test each week on chapters/units of that length.</p>
<p>Pfft, you’ve got a whole week to study. It’s not cramming until the day before the test.</p>
<p>Skim through everything once, read over things you don’t automatically understand, concentrate on what you’re having trouble with. You don’t need to review things you already understand; that’s just a waste of time.</p>
