Question

i've gt biology exam monday 9 in morning and the nxt day i've gt a chemistry examin afternoon . I can't seem to keep any of it in my head, i read the information and it jus goes to outer space, has anyone got any tips on how i can remember the information and how i should revise for the two tests. Thank you

Answer 1

Study in chunks of time... 30 minutes and then give yourself a break.

Make a study guide on a sheet of paper.

Write a cheat sheet that you can keep going over and over and over... and eventually when you know some of the information make a newer, smaller cheat sheet to use.

Answer 2

In the back of the sections or chapters in the books there should be reviews.  Do those.

Ask around to see if anyone has a study guide.  Its probably too late to make a good comprehensive one on your own.  I got one last year and it saved me.  

Go through the chapters and write the title of the headings (unless they are vague).  Then go through the headings and try to remember what they were about.

After you read each section, summarize it and talk it over to yourself or to someone else.  If you have trouble doing that, then you don't understand the material and you should read it again or ask someone to help you.  This is a REALLY good technique.  It sounds really silly, but I'm really impressed with its results. =]

Good luck!
