The Best Way to Study for a Test

What is the best way to study for a test?
By Matthew Gilbertson
Fourth grade Berea, Kentucky 1996
I think the best way to get ready for a test is to get some of the books on that subject and studied those books really hard. After that you should get good nights sleep in the morning study little bit more. If you're nervous about the test just relax and think about what you've studied.

Look at page 223. Go through the check list. How many points did Matthew cover. List 4 of the methods you got a ++ in. Post on comments

  2. The best way is to take about four days before the test and study about two hours each day then if there is a chapter review in the book then I will do them most of the answers are in the back of the book so I can look to see if I am getting the right answer or not.

  13. Matthew covered four out of the sixteen. Four of the methods that i got pluses in are getting everything ready the night before so I do not rush that morning. I also do not give in to nonproductive, negative attitude either I stay positive in evrything that I do. I also begin reviewing several days before the test that way I do not overload my brain. I do not pop pills to stay awake either. IF I have to stay up just to study then I need to rearrange time in my day for some studing.

    **Misty said the best way is to take about four days before the test and study about two hours each day. i have a tendency to put things off till the last minute.
    **I need to make a better and more organized study schedule.
    **Emotions are contagious. When i hear that others in my class are nervous or stressed about an exam it makes me nervous.
