Test Study

• Write down the knowledge gained from studying during midterms and finals.

  • Page in the Format of Adding Information on Top

• I’m not sure if it’s correct, and I don’t know the basis.

  • Just a rule of thumb.

• This is also related to My Work Management, but

  • The task of “solving the problem sets at hand” tends to be postponed.
    • I always think, “It would be more effective to solve the problem sets after doing something else first.”
    • This is true if everything progresses according to plan.
      • But I’ve never had a trial that went according to plan (blu3mo)(blu3mo)(blu3mo).
  • So, when in doubt about what to do, you should solve the problem sets at hand.
    • Even if you don’t understand the problem sets, you can make progress by solving them for the time being.
      • (I’ve regretted many times, just before the exam, saying, “I didn’t do anything during that time, so I should have at least worked on the problem sets.“)

• If you didn’t take the final exam once, write about the methods of studying for tests.

• For purely Memorization-based subjects, create flashcards using Quizlet or vocabulary books (e.g., Japanese history).

  • Write the word on the front and the meaning on the back.
  • Initially, practice saying the word when you see the meaning, and once you can do that, do the reverse.
    • Practice saying the meaning when you see the word.
  • If you include all the things that need to be memorized in the meanings, you can study efficiently.
  • Quizlet is inconvenient for quickly reviewing.
    • Print it on A4 paper so you can see it right before the test and erase it with a red sheet.
    • It seems like PDF would be good since I bought an iPad mini.

• For subjects that require memorization, but have strong logical relationships between each word (e.g., biology),

  • Write out notes so you can review them by scrolling.
  • Practice being able to provide information related to the word when you see it.

• Show the progress of each subject on a graph to create a sense of tension and balance adjustment.

• Write down the tasks for the day on a whiteboard.
