1.Прочитайте советы о том, как успешно сдать экзамены:

1. Keep your notes tidy and complete. If you miss a class, get the notes from a friend or ask your teacher what you missed.

2. Look through your notes regularly, not just the day before the exam.

3. Use different coloured pens and highlighter pens to help you focus on the most important things you have to learn.

4. Make summaries of your notes. Include the most important things in your summaries. Write short summaries on small cards that you can carry around with you and read them on the bus or when you have some free time.

5. Make mind maps, visuals and diagrams.

6. Many students have lots of exams close together. It is useful to plan how much time you have to revise and make a revision timetable.

7. Don’t leave your revision until the last minute. Try to revise for each exam more than once to help you learn things well. Our long term memories remember more if we look at things more than once so look at your notes regularly.

8. Remember to take regular breaks while you study. Take a 15 minute break after every hour you study. This will help you concentrate during your study time.

9. If you and your friends send each other messages every five minutes, you will find it very difficult to concentrate on what you are learning. So, switch off your phone and your favourite social network sites while you are studying! You can send messages to your friends during your breaks.

10. It’s really important to eat properly while studying for exams. A healthy diet will give you lots of energy.

11. Your brain needs plenty of water to stay hydrated. If you don’t drink enough water, you may feel tired or get headaches.
Do plenty of physical exercise while you are studying for exams. Exercise helps oxygen move around your body and your brain needs lots of oxygen to work well.

12. Talking through what you have learned with a friend can help you remember things. You can also test each other and explain things to each other when one of you doesn’t understand. It can be more fun revising with a friend.

13. It’s good to know when you learn better. Some people study better in the morning (early birds) and others in the afternoon or evening (night owls).

14. Review your notes.

15. Get your bag ready. Do you need to take anything to the exam? Pens? Pencils? A dictionary? A bottle of water? A watch? An ID card?

16. Do something you enjoy, like listening to music or watching TV before you go to bed. This will help you relax.

17. Go to bed early and get a good night’s sleep.
