Article SummaryXStudying may feel daunting, but learning how to do it more effectively and efficiently can help you get better grades and retain your knowledge. Create some good study habits by scheduling your sessions, working in a comfortable spot, and avoiding distractions, like technology. If you’re studying from your class notes, write down the important ideas, concepts, names, and dates rather than attempt to record all of the information. Over the weekend, review your entire week’s worth of notes to reinforce the things you learned that week. You can also make flashcards with key names, dates, and concepts on them so you can quiz yourself throughout the day. If you don’t like feeling chained to your desk, then use a mobile app to make flashcards or notes that you can take with you and work on any time, anywhere. To learn how to best study from your textbooks, keep reading!
