Help! I'm not absorbing any information I am studying! What can I do?

Question

By the way, he gave us this review packet but you are still supposed to go back to your notes and study from their. And it is so hard to find things! (This is biology.)

Answer 1

u shd better try this:
1. choose a time of day when u feel more comfortable to study and can remember more things.I used to wake up at 4:am daily when i was at high sch,though my freinds used to study till late night

2. if u can't remember things easily then learn by writing it again and again.It really helps.

3. Eat healthy food and do little bit of excercise daily.

4.Revise things u have already learned daily.u can do this by getting up one hour before u usually do on sch days or in a bus

5. don't panic.calm down .learn topic wise.

6. take 15-16 min break after every one and a a half hour.during this time listen to music,drink water or eat something

best of luck

Answer 2

Obviously you are not concentrating! You have to stop what you are doing and try to identify what is distracting you. Once that is done, deal with it immediately, re-evaluate your priorities and then start again! Sometimes little things bother us and until we stop and attack it in the bud can be move on to greater things. Take frequent breaks and if you can do both, turn on some soft music in the background as you study. Make studying fun rather than a burden! It's all about focus!

Answer 3

While studying biology, I think writing everything again and again doesnt work. It takes too much time. What I do is, I take one single page at a time. Read it once. Then I imagine that I am a university proffesor and at that moment I am explaining the topic to the class. By talking to myself and looking at the paper whenever I need, I tell that page (shouting) to myself. It really works. If you do this twice with each page, you fell that you really learn smthg. At parts where I forget, I jump and shout stronger.

Answer 4

I had that problem when I was in school. My solution, though very time consuming, was to rewrite all my notes over and over and over again... By the time school was over, my teacher was asking if others could borrow my notebooks to study by!!

(I would use the teacher's notebook, when I was absent a day, so I would still have that information in my book)...

Try it. It cannot hurt... cept for your hands may get crampy!

Answer 5

You must stop reading and start just quizzing yourself. Take each quiz (should be quizzes after each chapter if you are using text books) over and over until you score 100%. Get a piece of paper and number top to bottom. Take the quiz just as seriously as if you were taking the exam at school. Grade yourself. Do not cheat. It works!!

Answer 6

You need to read what you need to know 3 times. Write down what the important details are. Then, ask someone to ask you questions.

Answer 7

Have a cup of tea and calm down. Maybe write important words down to help you remember them. Just don't panic!

Answer 8

Sometimes you just have to stop trying to understand how it is and that is just that way.
I don't know what it is that you are studying but that is what I had to when studying Electronics.

Good luck
