STUDY AND EXAM PREPARATION STRATEGIES
Winning Strategies in the Classroom -
Preparation for Class
Before Class:
  • Review notes from the previous lesson and assigned readings. Be sure you are clear about everything.
  • Read your textbook in advance to prepare for the upcoming lesson so that you are able to grasp concepts faster. At the same time, while reading in advance, identify the areas which are difficult to understand or need clarification. Pay close attention during class when the teacher is explaining these sections which you have identified.
  • Prepare your writing materials - a well equipped pencil case and a proper note taking pad such as foolscap pad. Do not write on scraps of paper or in a small note pad which results in a lot of small pieces of paper, likely to be lost easily or have the lesson sequence messed up.

In Class:

  • Pay attention. Avoid distractions such as note passing, whisperings etc.
  • Evaluate as you listen – What is the main idea discussed? Do you understand what is discussed? Have your “uncertain sections” been properly addressed and clarified?
  • Immediately after the class, write your “to-do” list including homework, readings and research if required.
