I study sometimes, (refer to previous post for discussion on that). The rest of the time I just read the book and do the exam. I`ve learned to be a very cerebral reader so I usually only need to read through something once to retain it. It`s a pain in the neck when I do need to study though.

I find, actually, that I have an uncanny ability to puzzle out exam questions or posture my way through an essay without knowing the material. I blame our low educational standards. :p
|
Or professors who write exam questions in such a way that that the answer to one question can sometimes be found later on in another question. One can do fairly well at an exam using basic logic from what info is on the page. :)

I've had that happen, before. Not to mention, multiple choice questions are rarely very hard. They make it too easy to narrow it down to two answers, at which point a guess is viable.
Also, I've had far too many teachers impressed by my ability to string a complex sentence together and give me credit for short answer questions that I really didn't deserve. I guess reading the dictionary as a kid had its uses. :p |
I don't really study, only for exams and finals. Even then I just review my material until I remember. |
Glad i'm not the only one who read the dictionary before bedtime, though i wonder if anyone else threw the thesaurus into the mix as well :D
Funny thing about that actually: kid in my GCSE Spanish class . . . or was it Food Tech? . . . whichever, they thought it was a dinosaur! I nearly died laughing. Bad me, moving on. I do that too Quiet and Suzerain, it's partial-recall. Perfect Recall is also known as photographic memory. |
I don't ever study because I get too distracted easily and the fact that I don't want to.
|
Well it depends on if the Professor gives a study guide out or not. If there is one, I tend to go through and mark off what I already know and concentrate on what I don't know first. Then I go over what I do know at the end. I also come up with weird ways to remember the stuff.

Reading the dictionary? Wow. ._.'
I'm so happy finals are over. x.x' No more major hardcore studying for me for a while, but I intend on studying kanji over the summer. |
I get music with out words to help me study. And i make sure its the only thing around to really do.
|
I have to study with music on and it helps to study in groups.
Just having people around helps me concentrate even though we ignore each other haha. Going to the library and such also helps. If study in my room or a place where I'm too comfortable, I fall asleep haha |
listing to music and reading the chapter page by page >>
