How to study - 99.99% success ensured

Some study hard, even though they end up scoring fewer marks. Why so?
Some are lazy to study. Why so?
Well, the answer for all these lies in this article.
An efficient study technique includes 5-W's and 2-H's. Who, Why, When, Where, What, How, and How much.

1)Who - who all are included in an efficient studying technique? Surely you are there. You can also include your parents, brothers, sisters, and friends in that list. You may be thinking why should I include them. Well, the answer is that you can cross check with the above people the things you have studied. You should discuss tough topics with your friends. They may be knowing some of the portions better than you.Also, they may have doubts that you wouldn't have even thought of. If you discuss all these things together it will help in eradicating most of the doubts or else you could approach your teacher for clarifying your doubts. You and your friends must take the combined study seriously otherwise will end up in sheer wastage of time.

2)Why -your performance decides your future life whether it be higher studies or work.

3)When - here comes the time planning on daily studies. Stick to your time plan.

4)Where - you should select a place having good air flow, good light system, and essential furniture to study. Don't be sad if you don't have all the essential things. Place your books in a clean corner so that you can easily pick up the needed one. A chair and a table are more preferred. Or you can use a cardboard for your writing purpose.


5)What - plan your studies according to the exam. Try to study the things taught on that day itself. If needed you can reduce the time for rest or sleeping, but you should make it up on the holidays.

6)How - (i) sit straight
(ii) light should fall on your book from the left side.
(iii) need concentration.
(iv) read and understand fast. On the first read, try to understand the important points, words, and sentences. This will reduce the time required for repeated studies.

7)How much - decide the portion to be covered in certain time limit. Similarly, decide on the things to be studied from a chapter on that day. This will help in concentrating much on your studies. Otherwise, you may be simply wasting time by reading the same portion again and again.

Try to read and understand as many words as possible, at a time 5-6 words. Improve your vocabulary daily using dictionary or newspaper. Not knowing the meaning of words will hamper the reading speed and understanding. Read in your mind. Reading aloud or using your lips will exhaust you. Don't move fingers over the line to be read this will reduce the speed of reading. During appropriate instances bring into use the learned things. Think about the things learned, during day time. Repeatedly revise the important topics and chapters. Share the things you have learned with your friends.
