How To Start Studying

Motivation

Know what your motivation is and use that knowledge. This can be everything like placing motivational quotes around your study area or rewarding yourself with watching your favorite tv show when you’re done studying. My main motivation is this blog and the ones I follow.

Discipline

Motivation is what keeps you started but discipline keeps you going. Make studying a part of your daily routine and stick to it.

Procrastinating

Don’t procrastinate. Procrastination is a problem everybody has to face. Sure, you could still study tomorrow or the day before your test. But just think of how good it will feel to be able to relax while your friends are worrying about not starting early enough.

Organization

For organization I recently heard of bullet journal system. The idea is to keep track of tasks, events and notes in one planner. The system is very flexible and I highly recommend it.

Take notes in class. Maybe try the Cornell method?

Keep your desk tidy. Not only will you be able to find something much easier but you will also be less distracted.

Studying

When you’re organized and motivated, you can start studying. Remember to start early enough (like a week before) and not to pull an all nighter. 

Pomodoro Technique (I've talked about this before) : You study for 25 minutes and then take a 5 minute break. After completing that cycle 4 times you take an extra 15 minute break. Simple as that.

Studying for a certain subject. (scroll a bit down and you’ll see it) 

I hope I helped :)
