Only if I'm allowed to do it in Expressions =D !

I study with music on in my room, it helps me remember things :D

music helps me a TON. especially for finals. I listen to a different artist while studying each topic, so I can keep the information straight. we're allowed to listen to iPods in the testing center, so I listen to the same music while I take the test and it helps me remember.

Music helps me most of the time.. unless its something thats i REALLY like then end up dancing to it xD

Well, I kinda just go with the learning in school... Sometimes I will do extra little practice problems for math and when it comes to memorizing words or for my spanish class I use flash cards. :3

I... don't study. Never have. It's not that I'm a genius, I just get no benefit from studying for some reason. I take in information fairly well at first brush, though, so I usually don't do too badly on tests and exams.

I've had several teachers keep me after class to ask why I never take notes. They always seem to get the wrong idea when I try to explain and it adds pressure come time for tests when they're expecting me to do amazing since I don't "need" to study.

I study sometimes, (refer to previous post for discussion on that). The rest of the time I just read the book and do the exam. I`ve learned to be a very cerebral reader so I usually only need to read through something once to retain it. It`s a pain in the neck when I do need to study though.

Suzerain of Sheol 05-19-2011 12:51 AM

I find, actually, that I have an uncanny ability to puzzle out exam questions or posture my way through an essay without knowing the material. I blame our low educational standards. :p

Quiet Man Cometh 05-19-2011 12:57 AM

Or professors who write exam questions in such a way that that the answer to one question can sometimes be found later on in another question. One can do fairly well at an exam using basic logic from what info is on the page. :)

Suzerain of Sheol 05-19-2011 01:48 AM

I've had that happen, before. Not to mention, multiple choice questions are rarely very hard. They make it too easy to narrow it down to two answers, at which point a guess is viable.

Also, I've had far too many teachers impressed by my ability to string a complex sentence together and give me credit for short answer questions that I really didn't deserve. I guess reading the dictionary as a kid had its uses. :p

I don't really study, only for exams and finals.
Even then I just review my material until I remember.

Gallowsraven 05-20-2011 07:24 PM

Glad i'm not the only one who read the dictionary before bedtime, though i wonder if anyone else threw the thesaurus into the mix as well :D

Funny thing about that actually: kid in my GCSE Spanish class . . . or was it Food Tech? . . . whichever, they thought it was a dinosaur! I nearly died laughing. Bad me, moving on.

I do that too Quiet and Suzerain, it's partial-recall. Perfect Recall is also known as photographic memory.

Nanka 05-21-2011 01:23 AM

I don't ever study because I get too distracted easily and the fact that I don't want to.

Desmond 05-21-2011 01:37 AM

Well it depends on if the Professor gives a study guide out or not. If there is one, I tend to go through and mark off what I already know and concentrate on what I don't know first. Then I go over what I do know at the end. I also come up with weird ways to remember the stuff.
