Phase Two Part Four Question Three

When studying for tests, one should always try to find a large space of time in his or her schedule. Many people do not retain an adequate amount of information unless they actually give themselves the time to absorb and understand the material, while questioning along the way. If one were to rush themselves, he or she will feel more pressure and panic, which leads to poor test scores. One should also always eat before studying and get other small projects out of the way, so they do not think about them while studying. Although this may seem obvious, the number one thing anyone should do in order to prepare themselves for an exam of for an AP exam is to read the textbook given in class. One should pay attention to keywords like "always", "except", and "none". Also, try to find out the central idea of the paragraph in any given chapter. This means that when someone studies, they have to be able to relate the concepts to something bigger because creating own ways of defining and computing ideas will ensure that one will know the material. In addition, prepare ahead of time, so if a topic seems unfamiliar, one has time to meet with the professor and work out a way of understanding the concept because it’s more than just memorizing.
