You should focus on the main subjects which would be calculated in the final exam percentage. If you won’t give time to the priority subjects, then you will end up regretting it later. Some students think that they should give equal time to every single subject but that shouldn’t happen. 

Never choose to multitask

If you are studying something, then you should never choose to multitask otherwise it can be really dangerous for you. When you are studying a particular topic from your book and you get a notification on your phone, you should always avoid that. It will be better if you will turn off the notifications of your mobile phone.  Make sure that you study at a place where there are lesser distractions.  If you are planning to study in the library, then it will be better that you don’t take your laptop along with you because you might end up watching your favorite TV series online.

Attend your classes regularly

You can use the previous year’s questions papers to find out the format of the examination and make sure that you check it online properly.  Sometimes, the form of the exam can get changed and that’s why you need to keep yourself updated with it. 

Read out loud 

There are some students who can study without reading the topics loud but if you have the power of learning something by listening to it, then you can decide to read the topics in a louder voice. This can definitely help you to learn the topics in a better way.  Almost every student has a different strategy to learn something but most of the people are able to learn topics when they listen to it. You can also record your voice when you are reading aloud and then you can keep listening to it till you remember the formula or topic properly. When you are exercising, driving, walking or doing other physical tasks, you can keep your headphones on and listen to your own recordings.
