January 15th, 2009
People can often find it extremely difficult to memorize the huge amount of study material required to pass an exam. And even those who can memorize new information often find it quite impossible to remember that data during an exam. It has been found that there are many little tricks that you can use to improve the ability to focus concentration, absorb, and then recall that information. This article explores many of those tricks.

If you are a person who is trying to get better grades, there are a list of tricks that can help you to augment your capacity to focus your concentration, absorb the information that you study, and remember it during an exam without being subjected to mental blocks or test anxiety. This is a list of how to go about instituting good study behaviors:
(1) Create a place for reading and study only in that place! Locate a silent location that will make possible concentration without any distractions. Some usual examples would be a library, a vacant classroom, or your bedroom. You will want to establish the habit of studying when you are in this place. So it's best to not use your special place for other activities like daydreaming, watching TV, or playing games, etc.
BE SURE YOUR SPECIAL PLACE HAS:
(a) A comfortable seat, but not excessively comfortable
(b) Your writing desk or table
(c) Good lighting
(d) Good air flow
BE SURE YOUR SPECIAL PLACE DOESN'T HAVE:
(a) Views that will distract you
(b) A telephone
(c) Loud music
(d) A large screen television
(e) Another person who talks all the time
(f) A refrigerator filled with snacks
(2) Break up your work into small, short-range projects.
(a) Set up small specific projects like, "I'm going to study my biology from 1 PM to 2 PM. Otherwise you will set yourself up to be unsuccessful.
(b) Set a accessible work goal for the amount of time you have allocated. For example: finish reading chapter thirty in my chemistry workbook, or complete a rough draft of my chemistry paper, etc. Set your goal when you you are ready to start studying but before you actually begin. Set reachable goals. You might possibly do more than reach your goal, but set a reachable goal even if it seems too easy.
(3) Test Phobias
(a) Some students mostly experience physical symptoms, like nausea, feeling hot or cold, headaches, or faintness, etc.
(b) Other students experience mostly emotional symptoms, like feeling irritable, crying, or getting frustrated quickly.
(c) The main dilemma with anxiousness is that it can cause you to have a memory block. Or it could make you have thoughts that are racing out of control.
(d) Although you may experience some level of anxiousness when taking examinations, you can learn to significantly diminish that anxiety, or even completely eliminate it!
(e) Feelings of anxiety and the resultant stress are frequently the main causes of a lack of the ability to focus concentration. Stress can also be the cause of a mental block when one tries to recall information.
(f) Hypnosis CDs can be utilized to relax your mind and focus your concentration. As your mind calms down, your ability to stay focused will increase. Similarly, a calm mind enhances your ability to retain information, and recall it when it is needed.
(g) Hypnosis CD's can be used to program your mind for the positive expectation of serenity and the ability to recollect information during an exam. This is effective at reducing or getting rid of test anxiety.
(h) There are a number of NLP methods that can quickly do away with a test phobia!
