Mark: What’s the matter?
Clare: I’ve got a history exam on Friday and I’m worried I’ll fail it.
Mark: Why? You’re brilliant at history.
Clare: It isn’t difficult but I have to remember a lot of information. These are my notes from today.
Mark: Can I see?
Clare: Yes.
Mark: These aren’t notes! This is a full text!
Clare: What do you mean?
Mark: You don’t have to copy everything! ‘Notes’ are just a few words. You have to write the important words. You don’t need to write the extra bits. Look. King Henry the Eighth was married six times.
Clare: That’s important information.
Mark: But you don’t need to write all of those words. You can draw little pictures too. Pictures can help you to remember things and then you don’t need to write so many words. Look.
Clare: That’s so good! The crown is for ‘King’ and the ‘H’ is for Henry. That’s cool. Then the heart is ‘love’ and a number six … well that is ehm … six.
Mark: Yes. So look at these notes. Let’s test your memory.
Clare: King Henry the Eighth was married six times.
Mark: Exactly! Write notes like this, Clare. Then you won’t have six pages of notes, you’ll only have two or three!

If I have got an exam I take note at school and when I go home I review my notes. I study from the boom too.
I prepare for my exams in different ways. I can learn information or do a small sheet of paper with important notes.
I study 1 day before the exam because I don't like to take notes
First I learn the vocabularies and then the grammar. I often take notes for it. I only write some words, so I don't draw any pictures.
i study my exams before one day ago. i dont like taking notes during study. i cant understand that. i think listening is my best option
I prepare by taking notes on the topics to be revealed in the exam and by solving the test
I study the exam 1 day in advance, then I look at it before the exam and
I prepare for the test by studying the lesson over and over.
The way I prepare for an important exam is by reviewing the topics that will come on the exam, and I underline important words that I can memorize more easily, for example: if I need to know who Elizabeth II is, I need to underline words like queen, england, king philip, wife.
To prepare to exam I take my lesson's notes and underline the most important, then I read aloud and later my sister or another relative tests my memory.
I prepare for an exam by studying everything I have learned and noted in class and if I have a question or do not understand something, I ask a classmate or teacher who understands in order to understand.
First I prepare myself in a place in complete silence, telling my relatives not to interrupt me. Then I make myself a snack. In my case I play music, but calm to be able to concentrate. At night before going to sleep I give it a review and go to sleep early. It is also important to give yourself breaks so as not to overexploit your mind.
I always try to practice so that I don't have problems with the exam and I also do an activity
I prepare for an exam by studying three days before and I make summaries of the subject with images and I also watch videos, that helps me memorize faster and understand you. One day before the exam I do a review with friends to help us and understand everything.
I make diagrams for a better analysis on the topics, and I carefully review each part. I like to study with friends and make each other random questions about the topics. Also, I make draws to memorize easily.
For an exam I usually clean and order my notes to know where I have everything, in the same way I usually study at least 2 days in advance, and I do not stop studying if not until it is time for the exam, and of course, I also rest between study times, otherwise it would be useless to try so hard.
For an exam the first thing I do is write down the topics that I know will come in the exam, then I start to make annotations of what is most important and I underline it in some color that stands out so that I see what is important, I also watch videos referring to the topics so that it is clearer to me and as I finish I ask some of my sisters for help to ask me and see that I do remember what I studied.
To present an exam, the first thing i do is make a guide and then i see the presentations given in class
I prepare to study doing a guide, I add images to give me better support and learn better. At the end I ask a few questions, about the topics I did and I try to answer them alone.
See you!
First a day before I have to study, then I prepare a breakfast, then I wash my face and give it a review and i try to dont get nervous
Whenever I prepare for an exam I try to relax and put on some music or a relaxing video, most of the time I study from my notes, but when I don't understand a topic or lesson I study from the book or watch a video on the internet, in the end I almost always do a super fast review before the exam.
To prepare for my exam I try to make a guide and take notes in class, then I dedicate about 30 minutes to it and when I finish I relax and try to relax
Usually, i just read from my notes which by listening carefully to my teachers in class. it's very helpfull, because it's easier than reads from textbook.Then we can face the exam easily.
For exams I prepare by studying a few days before, I play music to concentrate, I make diagrams, notes and I like to repeat things out loud to understand them better. And it also helps me when I'm explaining to someone else.
I study one day before the exam and do a review. Sometimes I also give a last study minutes before the exam.
I like to study by reading, it's the way I learn the most
For an exam I study a few days before and when there is one day left I just give it a very calm review but it also depends on the subject
When I'm going to have an exam what I do is that several days ago I study a little the day before the exams I study again so I can reinforce what I have seen in class.
If I have resoruces like presentations or videos, I review them several times until I don't need them to tell all the topics to somebody else and that tells me that I am prepared.
Personally, I put on quiet music and read several times until it stays, but there are times when I write it and say it out loud, but dedicate a good time to it and remove all the distractions. My best technique is to read aloud, it always stays with me.
