When the exams are just round the corner and you don't have enough time to prepare, cramming is the best option. Well cramming is not something that is good for the students but life is not all about studying so when you don't study regularly, CRAMMING is inevitable.


  1. Step 1

    Get yourself a fully relaxed mind. Choose a place where there is peace and no noise or disturbances etc.

  2. Step 2

    Gather your study material in a logical way. Arrangement may be in order of topics you will prepare first or the topics in order of their importance or in the order the topics were covered in the class.

  3. Step 3

    The real business starts now. Study the topic first by quickly going through the whole text. Now you have the main idea of the topic or the subject. You cant cram everything so make key notes, points, keywords.

  4. Step 4
    Point-wise Summary
    Point-wise Summary

    This is the most important step. So try to follow it.
    After going through the topic well, prepare a brief summary of the whole chapter/topic. Make it in a way that all the contents are in the shape of points and are arranged in such a logical order that there is a main title first, then the subtitles and so on. Assign numbers to the points/titles so you will remember them easily and in case you forget some of these, your brain might stimulate to remember missing ones.

  5. Step 5

    Make the summaries of all the topics you have covered as explained in the above step.

  6. Step 6

    Now get some sleep or have a break after you are done with the study material. Give a last review to all the topic summaries you have prepared just minutes before the exam.

Tips & Warnings
  • Try to make summaries, keywords, notes, points in your writing because it means that half the cram work is done when you write these.
  • I myself have applied the method explained above so try to follow it and the results will definitely amaze you.
  • Give a quick look to the notes you have prepared - just moments before the exam/test because memory becomes highly responsive/impulsive at this point of time.
  • Never prepare very long key notes, or summaries that you cannot go through before the test or in shorter period of time.


thanks

hey ,

self study is the best study !

sit regularly at the same place which is comfortably ( as per vastu east-west direction is the best )

read the contents of the topics and make summary and go through them during revision and exams .

underline the important points .( do not underline unnecessarily stuff for no reason.)

All the Best!!!
