Yep.. I have 3 exams next week. But i'm somehow too bored to study atm, i read 20 pages, think about what i read, and i notice i dont remember anything.
I keep thinking about other things.. So anyone have any ideas for how to boost your reading ability, please post! :D
Thanks.
 
i think everyone hates to study.
 
You need to convince yourself that you need to learn it. There should only be two things around you when you're reading:
The book and yourself, NOTHING else.

I also hate studying.
 
You should study, i didn't and i pretty much fucked all my exams and my friends who studied got good grades.
 
lol yeh i write outlines of what i study. it doesnt take that lon, you absorb the material better, and if you have to go back to study you have a pre-made study giude
 
No matter what you gotta study, whats more important, your future or a forum..

Dam it, just freaking don't study, or cheat. I wrote a few answers i couldn't remember on my hand and no one even found me cheating.

I might start to study in year 10 - but unlike most kids in grade 8 I already know shit that most others don't. And if I don't know it, I'm a fast learner. I can read a paragraph from my text book (5 minutes) and work it out logically from there.

When I was learning moderate Java - I had minor previous experience with C++, but not enough as to make me "good". I pressed myself to read a 1000 page ebook, and now look: I can program! Its magic! /* sarcasm */ Logically, here are some good ways to study:

Write down notes/questions about each chapter that you read. At the end of each chapter, ask yourself some questions. If you can't answer the questions, flip back to the respective page and read it again.

find a study group or partner. Its often fun to exchange ideas between each other rather than sit in a lonely dark room at 11PM trying to understand how x fits in to y. (well, that was an example - I know perfectly good algebra ;)).

Find a place where you think is peaceful, such as the beach or a glade in the woods. Absorb the area around you (meditate), relax, and read at your own pace.
