MCAT Study tips to Raise Scores

MAKE DIAGRAMMATIC NOTES:

 Diagrammatic notes can be a very effective method in your revision.

• You can summarize the idea in your words, or by condensing them into a diagram, map or chart.
• our brain like to see things in shapes and patterns and we can remember patterns more easily than abstract entries or designs.

• Diagrams allow plenty of space or addition at any point and give an overall picture of the topic.
• When writing in this way, start by placing the main theme of the topic at the center of the page so that then you can move in any direction.

 METHODS OF STUDY:

 Systematic methods of learning may require more effort and practice in the beginning but soon they become habitual and effective. A few simple but important suggestions may increase the efficiency.

1. Make up a schedule for studying.
2.  Set aside a suitable place for your study and begin promptly.
3. Concentrate until you have finished one major worth-while task.
4. Keep up your daily assignments.
5. Limit your program and every day efforts to what you can accomplish. It is better to learn one or two topics thoroughly than four or five in accurately.
6. Instead of worrying about examinations and your personal problems, keep yourself busy in your study. Worrying and daydreaming are futile and merely waste of valuable and precious time. take constructive action to meet each problem , do your best and be contented about efforts.
7. Concentrate on important points and skim less relevant areas.
8. A quick overview by skimming rapidly through a chapter, may be highly desirable before you begin slow-reading.
9. For small quantities of easily assimilated material , try to learn the whole at one sitting.
10. Sit in a comfortable position but not so relaxed that you want to doze off.Relaxation of the body effects the mind.
