Memory techniques: How to study for an exam
One of the biggest stresses for a student is trying to study
for all his tests. Though you may try, sometimes it really is
impossible to study for everything especially when its exam
week and exam dates are too close together. But you can spend
the limited time you have by studying more wisely. For
example, ask for computer science assignment help on the Internet.
Here are a few memory techniques to help you retain more
information and study better for exams.The first of many memory techniques is to engage your body as
you study. It has been proven that though people remember 75
percent of what they see and 20 percent of what they hear,
people retain almost 95 percent of information if it is acted
out. Action is essential. So when you are studying, study out
loud and move your body (i.e. practicing a speech with hand
gestures, pace back and forth and etc.).Students have been pushed to believe that caffeine helps jog
the memory and brain. However, caffeine only keeps you awake,
but it does not necessarily help you retain memory. One memory
technique to help you recall more information faster and
retain information longer is by memorizing information at a
normal, relaxed state. By studying in a relaxed state allows
the brain to recall information without the “distractions” of
caffeine. The more comfortable and relaxed you are, the easier
it is for your brain to digest information.Another way to help improve memory and study is to understand
first when your body is at its most productive. Most studies
show that the brain is clearer and focused during daylight
hours. Your mind and sense are fresh and thus able to retain
more information. Study the most difficult subjects during the
daytime. But it has also been shown that studying during the
wee hours of morning is also effective.The best means to impro
