Ways To Study
STUDYING WITH A BUSY SCHEDULE
-Make a list of all the important things you need to do and try to fit in as much as possible.
-Be realistic and honest when you are making a planning.
-If you have to sit in the bus for an hour to get home, use that hour to your advantage and study/revise something
-You spend 4-9 hours at school every day so make sure you are doing something there that is worth your time. Do something else instead.
-Try to finish all your homework in your weekends so you don’t have to do a lot on school days. You can also prep exams/tests by making summaries in your weekend so you only have to study a little bit on weekdays.
-It is really important to relax once in a while.
How To Be Productive After School - STUDY TIPS
-Gap gets bigger when you come home i.e; eating and drinking thus lead to procrastinating.
Solution is to start working immediately
-Do not plan because you're just making a to do list not studying.
-! Revise 30-40 min. !! Break 15 min (! plan ! get something to drink) !!! Learn something new (pink for important things and yellow for articles) !!!! Break (1o minutes) !!!!! Revise !!!!!! Dinner !!!!!! Summarize/Homework !!!!!! Take planner and check everything you've done !!!!!!!! Go to bed
-Put your electronics stuff away. Turn it off if you have to. Don't even pick up phone calls.
-Restrict yourself from your needs. If you're hungry too bad, if you need to use the restroom, too bad. My mentality is "if I just finish this section and finally get it over with, I'll be able to eat/use the restroom.
How To Make a Summary - STUDY TIPS
-Pick a book thats worth it to summarize. Dont summarize a detailed book. Better to read, annotate and to study
-First page as a table of contents
-In the summary, fineliners for title and highlighters for definition. Bullet point has main idea, something imortant in every bullet point.
-Keep up the table of contents
-Highlight the important words but just wait until you finish a page or a chapter. You are forcing yourself to reread what you just wrote down
-Read the book before summarizing to get the idea of the book
-In every piece of text, theres a main idea and the rest of the paragraph is the explanation so write down the main idea in one or two sentences usually first or last sentence.
-Read summary on a regular basis. Summarizing is not the same thing as studying

How To Make a Planner For Your Exams
- What you need is a monthly, a daily/weekly planner, a highlighter, a pen, a random paper and a calculator.
- Write down all the exams
- Write down all the things you need to study, how many pages it is, how many pages you can do per hour (dpends on course) do everything for the other course
example ; for turk law, need to study 900 pages and 15 pages per hour. Meaning 90/15 = 60 hours to study everything
-Grab monthly planner, use 1 or 2 days for revision do the same for every other course.if
example ; criminal law, 24 hours you need to study, have four days to study everything and 2 days to revise
which means i need to study 6 hours a day.
- Optional ; use your daily planner in order to be specific. for example june 16 have to revise criminal law and make a to do list

- If you notice youre running out of time/spending time on a chapter. Prioritize by studying the important things. Skip it and go back to other chapters and go back to the chapters you didnt completely study if you have some time left.
- Use your content table and use it for revision purposes, grab your content table and read the chapter, try to tell everything you know about that chapter. If you forgot go back to the chapter and study again.
- Use 1 or 2 days before the exam for practice, revising and backup. Practise a similar exam. If you dont understand a question, you can study again.
