Thank you for your question. It is a good question.
Firstly, you have to ensure you understand what covered in the class properly.
Below are my suggestions:
1. Identify a time management tool, eg your phone calendar, ms outlook, etc
2. Put down the time you need to attend classes
3. Assign some time everyday to on assignment & projects. Do revision on the material covered in class on the same day. If you have any question, look for tutor assistance on the next day
3. Review the next day class topic
4. Prepare the exam and assessments early. Practise past paper if feasible
5. Form study groups with your classmates
Hope this helps! Good Luck!

Hi Alison,
I can relate to your frustration. This has happened to me back in school with subjects that I didn't like and really struggled to pass. It almost felt like the amount of time I spent on them did not matter. And it's okay to feel that way, we are all human.
First of all, I think you should understand what your goal is. This gives your study session direction and can prevent you from getting overwhelmed by too much information. Do not get distracted by noise and constantly remind yourself what your goal is will help keep you focus.
Once you have your goal down, do not rush to the learning part immediately. Try to break your goal down to small sub goals that are easier to manage and come up with a plan. Studying a little bit each day and gradually building up your knowledge is generally more effective than trying to cram at the last minute.
In between each subgoals, take notes, underline key points, summarize what you've learned in your own words, and teach it to others if you can before moving on to the next one. Also try to incorporate techniques that suit you. For example, flashcards, mnemonics, mind maps, quizzes can all help reinforce information. Different techniques work better for different types of information and for different people, so don't be afraid to experiment and find what works best for you.
Please also take break when you need to and do not overwhelm yourself. Taking regular breaks can improve your focus and retention. If you're really struggling, don't hesitate to seek help. You can reach out to your teacher, join a study group, or come back here and seek help.
And lastly, achieving your study goal or getting a good grade is import, but not everything. IMO what's more important is the study process and the ability to keep learning for life. Good Luck!

I went to my sons back to school night and the teacher reminded us that information needs to be reviewed 3-5 times to really stick. Try reading it once. Reading it again and making some notes. On the third go, try highlighting or using sticky notes to mark items that feel important.
I think studying is similar to a muscle. You want to exercise it a couple different ways and be consistent. Hope this helps.
