How to Study and Make the Most of Your Time
Effective
study skills must be practiced in order for you to improve. It is not
enough to simply "think about" studying; you have to actually do it, and
in the process use information from what you do to get better. This is
the central idea of this page. All that follows depends on this single
concept. There is a saying that goes like this: "Practice doesn't make
perfect; perfect practice makes perfect." If you want to be an achiever,
take this saying to heart.
The value of a schedule
Before
you even begin to think about the process of studying, you must develop
a schedule. If you don't have a schedule or plan for studying, then you
will not have any way of allocating your valuable time when the
unexpected comes up. A good, well thought out schedule can be a
lifesaver. It's up to you to learn how develop a schedule that meets
your needs, revise it if necessary, and most important, follow it.
A schedule saves time
All
schedules should be made with the idea that they can be revised. A good
schedule keeps you from wandering off course. A good schedule, if
properly managed, assigns time where time is needed, but you've got to
want to do it!
Making every hour count
A
schedule should take into account every class, laboratory, lecture,
social event, and other work in which you engage. There are givens such
as classes and so on that have to be incorporated. You must focus on the
other "free time" available and how you will use it. Make a weekly
schedule and block off the 24 hour day in one hour increments. Indicate
times for classes, labs, lectures, social, and work time. Also block off
a period for sleeping each day. With what is left over, plan time for
study. This gives you a rough road map of the time available. Of course,
you can revise your schedule as circumstances warrant.
When to study
The
problem of when to study is critical. A good rule of thumb is that
studying should be carried out only when you are rested, alert, and have
planned for it. Last minute studying just before a class is usually a
waste of time.
Studying for lecture courses
If
your study period is before the lecture class, be sure you have read
all the assignments and made notes on what you don't understand. If the
study period is after the lecture class, review the notes you took
during class while the information is still fresh.
Studying for recitation courses
For
classes that require recitation, such as foreign language, be sure to
schedule a study period just before the class. Use the time to practice.
Sometimes, practice with others can help sharpen your skills in a
before-class study period.

Making and revising a schedule
Don't
be afraid to revise your schedule. Schedules are really plans for how
you intend to use your time. If your schedule doesn't work, revise it.
You must understand that your schedule is to help you develop good study
habits. Once you have developed them, schedule building becomes easier.
