Sorry
- there's no easy way... You need to be:
1. prepared (with
the right equipment, texts, stationery, etc.)
2.
paying attention in class
3. motivated (remember
your goals)
4.
constantly reviewing your work (which of course, needs
to be up-to-date)
5.
regularly committed to homework (but able to take a break
for sport & leisure occasionally)
WHAT
DO I STUDY?
-
Review
the day's/week's classwork.
-
Complete
(or work on) any large assignments - don't leave it all till
the last minute.
-
Revise
your weak subjects, or the subjects you don't like, first.
-
Allocate
time to each subject & draw up a study timetable. Weak
subjects may need more time.
-
Be
sure to take short frequent breaks.
-
Don't
forget time for sports, family, work and sleep.
