Answer 1

the only thing i suggest reivse 4hrs on each topic. write notes and read out loud that will work stick to a mini timetable and dont go in to depth with your revision you will forget what you learnt

wish you luck!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Start studying the world religions first, since that is your weak point. Then move on to the next weakest point.

Study in 15-20 min periods, then take a short break and come back. breifly review what you just learned and move on to the next topic.

Think about the format/style/questions from other tests in the class. Some teachers focus on knowing dates and people names, others on the big picture, specific terms or concepts. Use that to help you study. Think like your teacher - What kinds of questions or content would they put on the test? Then study what you think the teacher might ask.

Make a list of important terms/people/events/ dates. Then say aloud everything you can remember about them. Check yourself with your notes/book/ study guides, etc.

Have someone quiz you from your notes.

record yourself reading the notes. Then play it back while you do your chores, on the way to school, home from school, etc.

use flash cards - writing them out helps. It also breaks up the information in to smaller, less overwhelming amounts. You can carry the cards with you and study when ever you have a free minute.

Hope this helps. Good luck on your final!

Answer 3

Learn it in parts instead of cramming. You are wise to start studying now. Find a quiet place to study, away from distractions. Learn ten facts at a time, take a break, then review the same ten facts. After you know the first ten facts, go to the next ten facts. When I study, I write each fact down five times on a piece of scrap paper while focusing on what I'm writing. You'll do fine. Relax. I got through college this way making good grades. I never thought I could do it, and I succeeded. Good luck.
