Preparing to Study: A Good Study Place

You need a good study place to be prepared to study. You should be able to answer YES to all of the following questions:

1. Is my Study Place available to me whenever I need it?

Your Study Place does you little good if you cannot use it when you need it. If you are using a Study Place that you must share with others for any reason, work out a schedule so that you know when you can use it.

2. Is my Study Place free from interruptions?

It is important to have uninterrupted study time. You may have to hang a DO NOT DISTURB sign on the door or take the phone off the hook.

3. Is my Study Place free from distractions?

Research shows that most students study best in a quiet environment. If you find that playing a stereo or TV improves your mood, keep the volume low.

4. Does my Study Place contain all the study materials I need?

Be sure your Study Place includes reference sources and supplies such as pens and pencils, paper, ruler, calculator, and whatever else you might need. If you use a computer for your schoolwork, it should be in your Study Place .


5. Does my Study Space contain a large enough desk or table?

While working on an assignment or studying for a test, use a desk or table that is large enough to hold everything you need. Allow enough room for writing and try to avoid clutter.

6. Does my Study Place have enough storage space?

You need enough room to store your study materials. Be sure you have enough storage space to allow you to keep your desktop or other work surface clear of unnecessary materials that can get in the way.


7. Does my Study Place have a comfortable chair?

A chair that is not comfortable can cause discomfort or pain that will interfere with your studying. A chair that is too comfortable might make you sleepy. Select a chair in which you can sit for long periods while maintaining your attention.

8. Does my Study Place have enough light?

The amount of light you need depends on what you are doing. The important thing is that you can clearly see what you need to see without any strain or discomfort.

9. Does my Study Place have a comfortable temperature?

If your Study Place is too warm, you might become sleepy. If it is too cold, your thinking may slow down and become unclear. Select a temperature at which your mind and body function best.

Having a good Study Place is important for good studying.

This really depends on the person. Some people could spend a week studying a subject intensely and have a good understanding of its basics. Others could spend an entire year going to class every day and still have no clue at the end of a class.

If you are in high school or college your best bet is to follow a general education plan laid out by your school, attend every single class, pay close attention to your instructor, take good notes, and do all your homework. Also be sure to actually read your textbooks and answer all of the questions at the begining and ending of each chapter or section.

Total time to get a basic education? 2 to 4 years for each of high school and college. During that time expect to spend 30-60 hours a week in class or studying on your own, depending on your own learning style and the difficulty of the subject matter.

every subject:
1) Maths
2) English
3) Science.

Lets talk about maths first.
Maths is a subject which requires grasping the concepts well.
U need to solve as many problems to gain fundamentals.
On an average u must solve 20 problems daily.
If u take 5 mins to answer a problem, it means 100 mins wiil be consumed for it.
Almost 2 hours.

Similarlly, Science is a knowledge intensive subject. It requires dual understanding.
1) Concepts
2) Knowledge.

For the concepts understanding will help. For the second part, Mugging of some data is usefl to score well in the exams.

Then comes English.
Basically, be prepared on different aspects :-
a) Grammar
b) parts of speech
c) Essay writing

Overall, 6 hours daily prep.

If you have went pass the 5th grade you should already know how to learn and understand. There is no set amount of time to study a subject. Turn off the radio and TV and open the book, if after 30 minutes you are still confused get some help from somebody that knows the subject, like a tutor.

That's difficult to answer as one's understanding differs from person to person . It also depends on whether you're in hs or college or university, with college and university your numbers of hours of studying, writing papers, researching papers, reading abstracts generally increases alot from hs.

I'd suggest showing up to classes regularly, taking good notes, participating in classes and seminars will definitely enhance your learning.

Depending on the number of subjects you take in a semester , if you are hs , I'd say at least an hour and a half foreach subject per night so that would leave you four to six hours of preparation for your homework on top of your other commitments each night. It might be less for some subjects and others more and that's the bare minimum if you're at all interested in really learning and understanding what you learn.
