Hudson also advised that students make sure they get enough sleep so that they feel well during the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI think sometimes students end up pushing themselves \u2013 studying too much [or] late at night,\u201d said Hudson. \u201cYou just have to be honest with yourself about what you can and can\u2019t do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Henderson said that the counselors often suggest that students spend two hours for every credit hour a week on studying. They can also go back at the end of every week and review information that they previously learned in other weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen it gets to the week of your final or a test, that earlier information should start to feel pretty solid for you and you should only hopefully have to spend the week of the exam focusing on the most recent material,\u201d said Henderson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students can also divide their readings up into smaller portions, such as one or two pages, and then think about the information they are learning. They can then take their notes on the important areas of that section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hudson also suggested that students find out what their learning styles are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSometimes how you study depends on what subject it is,\u201d said Hudson. \u201cDefinition-heavy classes might need flashcards, but if a student doesn\u2019t learn visually that way, it\u2019s not going to be helpful.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Henderson also touched on the fact that many students choose to study at home. While at home, however, students are more aware of other responsibilities that they have outside of school and may choose to focus on those rather than their homework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA lot will automatically think studying at home makes the most sense, but for a lot of students, there\u2019s a lot of distractions there,\u201d said Henderson. \u201cFor some students, actually studying outside their house\u2026can sometimes be a little bit more motivating.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To be more effective at notetaking, students can ask their professor for permission to audio record the class. This allows them to write down what they feel are the key points and then return to the audio recording later and note information that they feel they missed. They can also take more time to detail their notes rather than feeling rushed in class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t know what\u2019s important and what\u2019s not,\u201d said Hudson. \u201cNo one can hear everything. You can\u2019t write and hear for an entire class period and catch everything. You\u2019re going to lose a portion of it.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students can also meet with other classmates outside of class to share notes with each other. Seeing someone else\u2019s notes can also put a different perspective on the material. Students can also resolve questions on the material with one another.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When studying in a group, students can plan to each bring a certain amount of questions on the material to ask their classmates. Students can also take turns explaining certain topics to one another to help them test their knowledge on the information. They can also work on creating flashcards together or find a way to make their studying into a game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
