How to Improve Study Skills during Exams Time

Most of the students in present time feel stress, fatigue, anxiety etc. during exam days. this is a general problem, which could be eradicated with the help of simple methods which are listed below.

Role of Food and Food habits :

We have enumerated several nutrients that can help you improve your study skills anyway – for your information:

1. Vitamin E.  Studies have shown that there is a connection between memory loss and lack of Vitamin E; so it is common for Vitamin E to be included in the supplement staples of senior citizens and stroke victims. However, the studies do not conclude that taking a capsule of Vitamin E will boost one's memory.

2. Peanuts are also considered as brain food; peanuts are high in protein and proteins are known as the building blocks of our organs and muscles – brain muscles.

3. Coffee and Colas. Coffee and colas with high caffeine help because the caffeine keeps you awake; other than that, there is not much basis to consider them brain foods. (dont forget the side effects of excessive use of these)

How To Learn More

How to learn? This is the question which everybody wants to get answer, Its strange that there is no one "way" to learn. The good news is that there are many ways.

(a) Traditional Ways:
Read, take notes, repeat what you learn so you won't forget it - all of these are traditional ways to learn something new.

(b) Modern Ways:
The following are three more techniques to try.

Learn more by taking breaks.  Research shows that we remember best what we studied first and last in a given "learning session." Take more breaks, and you have "more sessions", so you increase the number of firsts and lasts.

How often should you take a break? There isn't a clear answer. Obviously if you take a break every two minutes it can just interfere with learning. You can try taking a break whenever your mind starts to wander, but probably no more often than a five-minute break every fifteen minutes. Getting up and moving around during your breaks can also keep your mind fresh.
