There are many tips and strategies for effective studying in school, but here are some of the most common ones that are backed by scientific research: • Plan ahead and schedule your study time. Don’t leave everything to the last minute or cram the night before a test. Instead, set realistic and specific goals for each study session, and stick to them. Review your notes and assignments regularly, and allocate more time for harder or more important subjects. Planning ahead can help you avoid stress and improve your performance. • Find a quiet and comfortable study space. Avoid distractions and interruptions from your phone, TV, or other people. Choose a place that has enough light, ventilation, and space for your materials. You can also personalize your study space with motivational quotes, pictures, or music that help you focus and relax. • Use different and active study methods. Don’t just read or memorize your notes. Instead, try to engage with the material in multiple ways, such as rewriting, summarizing, explaining, testing, or teaching it to someone else. You can also use flashcards, diagrams, charts, or mnemonics to help you remember key facts and concepts. Studies show that using varied and active study techniques can enhance your learning and retention. • Use creative study tools and apps. Technology can be a great ally for studying, if used wisely. You can use online platforms, apps, or websites that offer interactive and personalized learning experiences, such as Coursera, Khan Academy, Quizlet, or Duolingo. You can also use digital tools to organize your notes, schedule your tasks, or track your progress, such as Evernote, Google Calendar, or Habitica. • Take care of your health and well-being. Studying is not only a mental activity, but also a physical one. To optimize your brain function and performance, you need to take care of your body and mind. This means getting enough sleep, eating well, staying hydrated, exercising regularly, and managing your stress. You should also take breaks between study sessions, and reward yourself for your achievements. These are some of the best study tips for high school students, but you should also experiment and find what works best for you. Remember that studying is a skill that can be improved with practice and perseverance.
