Successful Students

9. . . . DON’T CRAM FOR EXAMS. SUCCESSFUL
STUDENTS KNOW THAT DIVIDED PERIODS OF STUDY ARE MORE EFFECTIVE THAN CRAM
SESSIONS, AND THEY PRACTICE IT.
IF
THERE IS ONE THING THAT STUDY SKILLS SPECIALISTS AGREE ON, IT IS THAT
DISTRIBUTED STUDY IS BETTER THAN MASSED, LATE-NIGHT, LAST DITCH EFFORTS KNOWN
AS CRAMMING. YOU’LL LEARN MORE, REMEMBER MORE, AND EARN A HIGHER GRADE BY
STUDYING IN FOUR, ONE HOUR –A –NIGHT SESSIONS FOR FRIDAY’S EXAM THAN STUDYING
FOR FOUR HOURS STRAIGHT ON THURSDAY NIGHT. SHORT ,CONCENTRATED PREPARAOTRORY
EFFORTS ARE MORE EFFICIENT AND REWARDING THAN WASTEFUL ,INATTENTIVE,LAST MOMENT
MARATHONS .,YET SO MANY STUDENTS FAIL TO LEARN THIS LESSON AND END UP REPEATING
IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL IT BECOMES A WASTEFUL HABIT. NOT TO CLEVER HUH?
WHEN
YOU CRAM ,YOUR TAKING THE SHORTCUT ,AND SHORTCUTS NEVER PRODUCE ANY REAL
WORTHWILE RESULTS ALSO WHEN YOU TAKE SHORTCUTS YOU FEEL RATHER ROTTEN KNOWING
THAY YOU COULD HAVE DONE BETTER BUT DIDN’T.SHORTCUTS CUT YOU SHORT .YOU CANT PLANTWATERMELON
SEEDS AND HARVEST FRSH WATERMELON THE NEXT DAY .IT TAKES TIME .CRAMMING FOR AT
TEST OR PROJECT AND EXPECTING TO MAKE A HIGH SCORE THE NEXT DAY IS LIKE
WATERMELON SEED AND EXPECTING TO HARVEST AND EAT FRESH WATERMELON THE NEXT DAY.
PLUS CRAMMING FOR AT TEST OR PROJECT
DOESN’T HELP YOU ACADEMIACALLY SO EHY EVEN DO IT. PLAN AHEAD PREPARE AHEAD GIVE
YOURSELF PLENTY OF DAYS AND WEEKS TO PREPARE
FOR
UPCOMING ACCOUNTABILITY OPPURTUNITIES.
