How to stick to an exam preparation schedule
With the exam season approaching, the heart starts to beat a bit faster, no? The stress of preparing and scheduling a plan to study every topic before the exam day. However, there are ways to minimize this stress to a great extent. If you are also one of those students, who stress about how you are going to prepare for the exam in the given time, then just know that we are here to help you bring down the stress. 

Here we have mentioned some very effective tips to help you plan a study schedule that is even endorsed by our qualified online and private tutors. Give this a read and start planning your study schedule today to be highly prepared when the exam actually starts. 

Mentally plan a schedule. 

First, make a plan in your mind. Wondering how you can do this? Just mentally list down everything you do in a day and then make space where you can make some. Think about how you can make changes in your routine activities to make an effective plan for studying between that. Think about how much syllabus you have to cover. This will give you a better idea of how much time you need to devote to studying. 

Pen it down

Once you have made an idea in your mind, start penning it down to make a more concrete plan that can be effective. For this, you can make a table with the headings for time and the subject/topic. In this way, you can set a certain amount of time for a subject. You can plan more practically to know what amount of time you need to give to study, and with this plan, you can plan the rest of your day as well.

Make sub-sections

When you are planning on preparing for a certain subject, make sub-sections for it where you can add the topics according to the level of difficulty. This will give you a better insight into the management of each subject and better management of the time being allotted to the learning process. If you are unable to decide on which subject to be given priority to, these sub-sections will enable you to know better about the subject and how much time you need to give to it. 

Don’t forget to add a break.

A very important thing to remember is to take breaks in between your study schedule. While you are brainstorming and stressing over preparation, your brain definitely needs rest to be more efficient and helpful. If you don’t take any break while studying, you will simply have a burn-out, and you definitely don’t want that, right? There is no use in studying if you do not understand what you are studying. To make sure you comprehend everything well, you need a fresh and present mind. And for this, you are going to need some break time where you can do some fun activities to refresh your mind.
Here are some fun activities you can do in break time to refresh your mind:
  • Go for a walk, jog, and cycle. 
  • Listen to music or watch a documentary.
  • If you are a story lover, you can read a chapter of a fun novel.
  • Spend some time with friends and family.
  • Go out for a coffee or a brownie.

Oh! And snacks help too.

Your brain needs energy too. Do you know that one of the most important sources of energy for your brain is glucose, and you get that from food? When you are not taking the required amount of food, your brain doesn’t get enough energy from glucose as it should. So to keep it active, place some fun yet nutritious snacks at your table as well. You can place chocolates, granola bars, sandwiches, smoothies, and many more energy-filled snacks for a good study session.

Keep going and ignore the rest.

Don’t stress yourself over the preparations of others. This will only take up the time and energy that you can instead spend on your own preparation to make it better. Even if you are going right with your own schedule, comparing it with others is only going to distract you from your preparation, and it will waste your time to a great extent. So our advice on this? Just focus on where you are headed, keep going with your schedule, and soon you will be right with your preparation for the exam day. Just know that you got this!

In the end:
