1. Try learning for understanding:

When reading about a topic/concept, focus on- Grasping the meaning- Getting the ‘gist’ first; then the details (if you have to)- Try connecting new knowledge with what you already know

3. Consider cramming if you have toCramming is a bad study technique because info we ‘cram’ does not stick in out memory, so if you have to cram:

- Focus on most important things at the beginning and at the end of your session- Squeeze in some testing/do exam problems- If you don’t have time for reading, just do exam problems- Try to re-create the exam situation (timing, lightning, sitting at

the desk)
