1. Read textbooks and then read your guide/notes.
Many students try to read directly from the guide/notes which makes it hard to understand the material and the concepts. Reading from the textbook first makes it easy to understand the concepts and facts. It also provides us with more information about the material. Try reading from the textbook and then try to recollect as much as you can remember. After reading the textbook, try reading the guide/notes. You will easily find the difference and will be able to remember more.
2. Pomodoro technique.
As study suggests that it is necessary to have little breaks in between your work to improve memory. In this technique, study is broke down in parts with having 5 minutes break in between them by using a timer. The interval to study should be of 25 minutes to retain maximum memory of the study. This also helps in time management.
3. Time management.
During exams, lot of students feel exam anxiety which is nothing but fear of failure. This can be overcome by making a study time table. In study time table, write down the subjects you are falling behind on and then assign them enough time for preparation. For e.g. If you are not prepared for your maths exam then assign it 3-4 hours daily in your time table. This will help you to catch up with the current chapter being taught in your college/classes.
4. Sleep.
"Early bird wins the world". Try to remember this quote because it will help you greatly if you are an engineering student. As per the study, it is found that if a person wakes up early in the morning and reads or learns anything then it will stay in his mind for longer duration. Also try to get enough sleep before studying. Try sleeping early during your exam month because the students who are well rested are able to recollect more information during exams. It is advisable to sleep for 8 hours to feel well rested. So, it is actually fine to sleep early at night and wake up early in the morning.
5. Weak Points.
Lot of us have weak points in certain subject of engineering. It is not something to be feel ashamed. If you are having weak points in technical subject then write them down on a paper and try to plan out a way to overcome them. Ask your friends or teachers to help you with the topics which you are not able to understand. After learning, try to solve them on your own. If your friend or colleague is having a hard time to understand something, try teaching them. This will help you to understand the material even better.
