How do best students study?
You cannot conccentrate at all time, but pay attention to those times that you concentrate better and study at those times.
1) The best way to study, is to teach someone else what you are trying to learn. This is maybe the most time consuming method, but it delivers the highest comprehension level and best long term retention.
2) Create tests for the subject:
Creating tests is a good way to study, there are different levels of learning and most students stick with memorization. Their “difficult” questions are picky, using unnecessary details. Create memorization, knowledge application and problem solving questions.
3) Condense the information into the briefest form you can and still recall what it is about:
One day before the exams you should be reviewing your notes to refresh what you already know. Take a small 3 X 5 card and write down everything you think you should know for the exam, but do not know. Once it is full that is about all the learning you will be able to do and still remember it tomorrow.
4) Convert data that must be memorized into visuals:
Create images based on the words/phrases you are memorizing. My daughter had this book with picture images of all the state capitals. Her favorite was a hairless (nude) hamster boarding a Concorde jet for Concorde, New Hampshire.
5) Look for what is ironic or humorous when you read long passages. This makes it easier to remember.،
