The golden rule for study is read, review, recall. This you must begin to do from the moment the topics and theories are introduced. Go beyond class notes and buttress these with research clarifying the arguments that surround the topic. It is better to have a thorough understanding and mastery of the subject than cramming to pass a one time exam. You MUST rest i.e. sleep well. Rest your body, mind and spirit. Let go of every anxiety. Take some warm drink (hot cocoa) before going to bed. Get into discussions with your classmates. Develop personal styles of recall. Use associations.Usually you are required to study for 3 hours for every credit unit per week. So do not wait till the exam is so close. In fact that way you can not fail any surprise test. Nothing can replace hard work. The more you study the more you increase your attention span. Sit down, do not answer the phone, do not go to the fridge, concentrate. Choose a spot where you will not be disturbed and if it works for you play your favorite music as background. Good luck.

Use good test taking skills. Get a good night's rest before the exams. Eat a healthy breakfast (lunch). Go in prepared and confident. Bring the materials you need. Take your time and answer carefully.\n\nAsk your teachers/professors what will be on the exams, and what formats they will use (multiple choice, true-false, matching, short answer, essay). Study carefully. Anticipate what questions will be on the test and what you will be expected to know.\n\nGood luck!

Keeping a regular time everyday for studying is a good idea. In that time keep a specific time period for a subject you need to improve in. Practice questions of that subject everyday and read up lesson everyday. Keep a timetable so that in week aside from homework you can study the subjects. For exmaple, keep a day for studying biology, another day for geography etc. It will help you. \nAlso I would recommend a meditation, it helps improve concentration. Sit straight and comfortably, focus your breathing, breathe deep hear the sound of your breath. Do this for 5 to 10 mins. It'll help. Good luck!

I'd continue the math & science but maybe try the regular class instead of the AP if it not a strong suit. Good luck

1. Have a regular time and location to study.\n\n2. Get ahold of upcoming lessons and read ahead. *The reason for this is important. If you study ahead - when you do take the subject in class it is a review for you. You'll actually be ahead of the class when preparing for your exam.\n\n3. Work with someone who can help you - not distract you. * This is a mastermind technique you'll use in the business world. Get use to it.\n\n4. No TV. ( a little quiet background music is acceptable)\n\n5. Learn memory techniques. Do not rely on rote memory. * Use ridiculous association for subjects where you have alot of facts to remember. Your mind is like a filing cabinet. If you don't have a filing system you won't know how to retrieve the knowledge when you need it.\n\n6. Use colored post its to mark , "must knows, could knows, and should knows. Remember - most of your hard cover books are filler. Focus on what your teacher wants you to know.\n\n7. Eating before study causes blood to go from the brain to the stomach. Watch when you eat.\n\n8. Get plenty of rest. Don't party on school nights.\n\n9. Do "all your assignments!" "Write all your tests!" - falling behind because of missed assignments or classes will make studying difficult. If you have to miss a class - have someone provide you with notes and <ask> the teacher if you're confused. DO NOT FALL BEHIND!!!! Knowing your subject is like building a house. If you miss information your foundation will be weak and your house will not hold up! That's why students who miss class have a bad time of it.\n\n10. Set a goal for yourself in each subject you take and shoot high. That is to say...shoot for an A and you'll most likely get a B. Write your goal in the present tense - I.e. It is Jun 2007 and I have completed Math 30 with an A plus. (Describe the reaction of your teacher/parents/friends and how good you feel about achieving your goal. "Remember - if a goal doesn't have a time limit set on it - your goal is just a dream!"\n\n11. Never get into a tiff with your teacher - show genuine interest and you'll see a higher grade.\n\n12. Keep good notes - no...excellent notes. Notes that refer back to your text book and highlight the must knows! Have a table of contents.

~ Do your homework right when you get home before turning on the TV or computer.\n~ Find out if your school offers an elective that teaches study skills, or see if there is a tutoring program you can join.\n~ If a teacher offers a study group for a test go for it, he/she will know exactly what you need to study and you won't be wasting time memorizing the wrong stuff.\n~ Pay attention in class and take notes.  If a teacher writes something on the board copy it down, the teacher wouldn't waste his/her time writing down something unimportant or irrelevant to the topic.\n~ Use a planner or some type of organizing book to write down homework and *check it every night*.\n~ Once the teacher tells you the scheduled date for a test start studying, even 15 minutes a night will make a difference.\n~ If possible, study with friends, this can help a lot because different people might have ideas you never would have thought of for remembering certain topics. (Just don't waste time fooling around or getting off-topic until the studying is done.)\n~ Eat a good breakfast, get lots of sleep, and participate in sports. ( The brain needs food, rest, and a stress relief.)\n~ good luck : D

Take detailed notes, outline sections. Read through chapters and answer questions in textbooks. Complete any chapter review questions and have others quiz you. Study around 5-15 minutes each day, and don't cram before a big test. Feel free to take breaks when you feel tired, hungry, etc., but stay on task.

It really all depends on the type of test your teacher likes to give. I'm in a hard bio class too, and I think it's a little below you, but typing up the vocab really helps. Don't use the book's words, use your own. Then print it, and you can study in school, too.

1. Eat Right (Don't Skip Meals)\n2. Organize (don't just reread notes) create outlines from your notes & readings, organize the raw material you've collected all semester (this process in and of itself is a form of study)\n3. Study - again not just rereading, try testing your self (make up questions or see if your texts have questions at the end of chapters etc.)\n4. Sleep - staying up late cramming won't help it will actually decrease your ability to test well.  So get to bed and get some sleep\n5. Take a walk before the test, get the blood flowing and clear the mechanism (so-to-speak) this will help you.\n6. The standards (your first instinct answer is almost always right, but always go back and check your answers, make sure you read the question correctly, answered all parts of it etc.)\n7. When you finish a test, put it out of your mind (again, exercise can help you here) and move on to the next one.  Stressing over the result of a test that is finished can effect how well you do on the ones you haven't yet taken.\n\nGood Luck

Make a table of the days of the week.  Each day then has to be broken down in a few hours at a time i.e. \n11pm - 7am sleep.\n7am - 8pm breakfast & getting ready fo work/college/school\n9am - 1pm work/school/college\n1pm - 2pm lunch\n2pm - 5pm work/college/school\n\nand then the hours after that need to be broken down in study time, tv time, bath/shower etc.\n\nThe idea of it is to find time to study around the other essentail hours and every day tasks.\n\nI hope this makes sense.\n\nGood luck

starbucks (they have these starbucks double shots that come in a can that work really well) or redbull. its probably your own fault you procrastinated, so caffine it up so you can function fine, shut off your computer to avoid distraction, and don't do anything but study. i recommend a nap before the exam and then more caffeine right before you take it. ive aced a lot of tests this way.

I hate to tell you this but the chances are stacked up against you. There is so much that goes into biology and into the processes that goes along with it that it would be impossible to cram it all into 4 nights. Biology is full of little details that are important to the overall process that can easily be missed if you don't look carefully enough.

i m not sure wat do u mean by biology 12 but i know how to do well in bio since i took Bio 2 AP and 1 honors in high school to be honest with u i had 91% and i m not braging because there were alot of people who had higher grades than me \nwhat i did was just read through notes and type them every day it took be less than 30 minutes but whenever i took the test i always had an "A" bio is easy because all u have to do is just memorize stuff
