The new high school and college year is just around the corner. You’ve got another year of working hard and studying ahead. It may seem daunting right now, but once you achieve your high grades, you’ll be super happy you put in all that hard work.

But how do you get those good grades in the first place? The best way is to develop a killer studying technique. If you couple that with a regular routine, you won’t go too far wrong. Interested in making your studying completely watertight? 

Here are some of my best tips to help you nail your studying technique.


Taking A Break Is Important

No matter how little time you have left to study for an exam, you should always give yourself plenty of breaks. Even if you are doing a quick twenty minutes of revision, it is imperative you break up the block of work. These breaks can be as little as a couple of minutes running down into the kitchen to grab a drink. Science shows that working out can be a great way to break up your studies. It allows you to completely forget about your work. Not only that, though, but you’ll feel extremely rejuvenated when you go back and hit the books!

Ignore The Internet

Group Study Helps

There are lots of distractions trying to coax you away from your work online. So don’t go on the Internet while you are meant to be studying. However, there will be some situations when going online is necessary for your work. There are a few different apps you can download onto your computer that will stop you from going on things like Facebook and Twitter. It can also be worth putting your smartphone in a different room so that you aren’t tempted to use that while you study.
If you are finding it difficult to motivate yourself to study, you might be more proactive working and revising in a group. Get a few of your friends round so that you can hit the books together! You can help each other to understand the tricky topics. To make sure your group really gets down to business, you should set yourselves some goals. As long as you don’t turn this into a social meeting, you should find this a very successful way to study!

Double Check Everything

When you are writing coursework, you need to make sure all your facts are 100% accurate. If not, your grades could come tumbling down! No matter how desperate you are for some extra information to go in your essay, don’t put anything in that you read on Wikipedia. It isn’t always that reliable. You need to also make sure that your essays aren’t going to be picked up for plagiarism. Sometimes, it’s too easy to plagiarize someone else’s work without meaning to. Thankfully, a plagiarism checker can help you spot this happening.

Put On
Your Favorite Tunes

Music is a great stress reliever. Next time your studies are getting you down and making your feel anxious, put on some of your favorite tunes! Different music will work best for different people. Some of you might find it tricky working to music with lyrics. So try and find some tunes that don’t have lyrics that you can get caught up in. Classical music and jazz are often the best types of music to study to.

Up Your Omega 3 Intake

Your brain needs to be in top condition if you want it to be able to absorb all those facts and nuggets of information! And the best way to give it a helping hand is to ensure your diet is rich in Omega 3 fatty acids. You will find these in various foods such as nuts, oily fish, and olive oil. If you don’t think you are getting enough of these, you should start taking a daily supplement. Some studies have shown that taking both Omega 3 and Omega 6 before an exam can help you reduce your anxiety and stress levels!

Inhale Fresh Fragrances

Some studies also show that aromatherapy can really help students cram all the knowledge they need to. So rather than studying in a musty library, think about turning your bedroom into a mini spa! And inhaling some essential oils, such as lavender, can help reduce your stress before you enter the exam room!

Worried about the next college or high school year? You should ace it with flying colors now thanks to this blog post!
