Timothy Here,
I could still remember when I was writing my ICAN exams. I almost failed BCRM exams (Old syllabus) because of the approach I used. What happened was that I concentrated too much on other courses that I was writing thinking it will be easy for me to scale through it. A night before the exam Paper, I did not understand it what I was reading so I simply resulted to cramming. I scored exactly 50 marks but It was really nothing to be proud of.
As a result, I developed a system to counter such habit. Precisely, a very more effective approach
My colleagues are usually surprised to hear that I’ve pulled out of all-nighter . As the research shows, cramming is a bad idea. So, what is this more effective approach? It is called PERIODIC VIEW
If you periodically review the new information you learn, you will move that information from your short-term to your long-term memory. This way, you won’t forget important facts or equations come exam time.
The end result: Less stress and anxiety, and more excellent result
After much experimentation for I became chartered, I have found that the optimal review intervals for most students are as follows:
- 1 day after learning the new information
- 3 days after the first review
- 7 days after the second review
- 21 days after the third review
- 30 days after the fourth review
- 45 days after the fifth review
- 60 days after the sixth review
By the end of this cycle, the information is almost permanently stored in your long-term memory.
Note that each review is just a review of the key facts and equations, not a full review of the topic. As such, each review only takes 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
This system will save you dozens of hours by maximizing your studying efficiency.
Dedicated to your Exam Success
