The Nine Study Habits of Successful Students…

Successful students have good study habits. They apply these habits to all of their classes and assignments:

1. Try not to do too much studying at one time -

If you try to do too much studying at one time, you will tire and your studying will not be very effective. Space the work you have to do over shorter periods of time. Taking shortbreaks will restore your mental energy.

2. Plan specific times for studying -

Study time is any time you are doing something related to your coursework. It can be completing assigned reading, working on a paper or project, or studying for a test. Schedule specific times throughout the week for your study time.

3. Try to study at the same time each day -

Studying at the same time each day establishes a routine that becomes a regular part of your life, just like sleeping and eating. When a scheduled study time comes up during the day, you will be mentally prepared to begin studying.

4. Set specific goals for study times -

Goals will help you stay focused and monitor your progress. Simply sitting down to study has little value. You must be very clear about what you want to accomplish during your study times.

5. Start studying when planned -

You may delay starting your studying because you don't like an assignment or think it is too hard. A delay in studying is called "procrastination." If you procrastinate for any reason, you will find it difficult to get everything done when you need to. You may rush to make up the time you wasted getting started, resulting in careless work and errors.

6. Work on the assignment you find most difficult first -

Your most difficult assignment will require the most effort. Start first with your most difficult assignment since this will require your maximum mental energy.

7. Review your notes before beginning an assignment -

Reviewing your notes can help you make sure you are doing an assignment correctly. Also, your notes may include information that will help you complete an assignment.

8. Tell friends not to call during study times -

Two study problems can occur if your friends call you during your study times. First, your work is interrupted. It is not that easy to get back to what you were doing. Second, your friends may talk about things that will distract you from what you need to do. Here's a simple idea - turn off your cell phone during your study times.

9. Review over the weekend -

Yes, weekend should be fun time. But this is also the time to do some review including consultation with a friend.

This will help you be ready to go on..

Useful Study Techniques For CA, CWA, CS students

Study Groups ( Combined Studies )

The difference between a study group and a tutorial situation is that a tutor is someone who can be relied on to know what he/she is talking about. The students in a study group, on the other hand, are all learning the material at the same time.

Study groups and study partners can be very effective if certain guidelines are observed. You should only work with people who take the same serious attitude toward their studies as you do.

Decide how you are going to work together, make sure everyone shares equally in the responsibilities and the advantages, and stick to your agreement unless everyone agrees to make changes.

For best results, here are the ways to use a study group ( Combined Studies ) :

1.When: Join a study group after you have learned the facts and ideas you need to know to avoid learning incorrect information.

2. Why: The purpose of the group should be conversation--sit back, listen to the others, and tell what you know. This exercises your sight and sound senses and your mouth muscles, so you benefit three ways.

3. How : An effective technique is for each member to prepare five essay questions in advance and then for the group to take turns answering them all. If your group needs to work on memorization of facts, drill one another with clue words.

4. Where: Choose a place where there are no distractions so the group can give its entire attention to the subject.

5. How long: One hour spent with everyone's mind on the subject is worth four hours' work with time-outs every few minutes for fun and games.

6. Who: Anyone, as long as he or she understands the point of the study group is not to teach, but to discuss facts and ideas that are already learned; not to socialize, but to study.

Also Read :

A study group or partner cannot take the place of effective individual study. You must do the groundwork (attend lectures, read the textbook, etc.) and you must take the first steps to recall and review the material yourself. Study groups or partners can drill each other, help each other practice new skills, clarify difficult points, present new viewpoints on the material, or pose questions for each other.

Mnemonic Devices

Some students employ mnemonic devices to help them remember crucial information. Some mnemonics are words whose letters stand for things to be remembered (ROY G BIV is the mnemonic for the colors of the light spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. HOMES lists the names of the Great Lakes: Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior); some are sentences in which the first letter of each word is the key. ("Every good boy does fine" names the musical notes on the lines of the treble staff: E,G,B,D,F.) Mnemonics can be useful, but if you create too many of them, you have the problem of trying to memorize the mnemonics rather than the information they represent.

External Memory

External memory refers to all physical devices that help memory: lists, memos, diaries, alarm clocks, etc. Many people fail to make the best use of such help. One handy form of external memory is the deliberately misplaced object. Put a familiar object in an unfamiliar place where you cannot miss seeing it. When you see it, it will serve as a reminder to you and help you recall what you wanted to remember.

Reviewing

One of the oldest facts known about memory is that the more times you review your notes by testing yourself, the longer you will remember the information. Even a single review after you think you know it well can dramatically increase the length of time over which you can remember something. It is also important to space out review sessions rather than cramming them all together--30 minutes per day is better than three times in a row for 90 minutes. There is a point of diminishing return: if you space out your reviews too much, you begin to forget.

For most people, the ideal spacing is:

1st review-5-10 minutes after learning
2nd review--later the same day
3rd review--one week later
4th review--one month later
5th review-just before the exam.

To take further advantage of spaced-out reinforcement, break up your final test review time into two periods.

Study Breaks

You will do your most effective studying if you take a 10-minute break between subjects. It helps three ways:

It is part of behavior modification and rewards you for putting in 50 minutes of study effort.
It acts just like a brief nap and allows for some free subconscious reinforcement of your learning.
It keeps brain-wave interference at a minimum by separating the two subjects very clearly in your mind.

DON'T BE RIGID ABOUT TAKING BREAKS or you will end up watching the clock more than the books. One good time to take a short break (5 minutes) is right after reading your textbook assignment.

Sleep

Individuals who slept after memorizing material recalled more than those who stayed awake. It makes little difference whether a person sleeps immediately after learning or waits a few hours; it is the sleep that is important. Sleep before learning does not help learning. In fact, a short period of sleep just before new learning can seriously increase forgetting. If students were awakened two or four hours before learning, however, their memory was no longer affected by sleep. If you do not plan to go over and relearn material you study, it is best to sleep four hours or longer between the time you study and the time you have to recall the information. Do not sleep before you study unless you allow yourself a period of time of being awake before you start studying seriously.

Rote Memorization

Straight memorizing is the least dependable way to remember. To keep straight memorizing to a minimum:

Associate. Link it to something you do remember.
Visualize. Make a picture in your mind's eye.
Sound out. Say it aloud and listen to its sound.
Count. It helps if you know the number of points you need to remember.
Abbreviate. The mind's eye recalls short blocks of capital letters more quickly than several long words. Formulas are abbreviations too.

Some things have to be memorized primarily by rote (poems, a part in a play, etc.).

Find key words in the passage, then search for a relationship that leads you from one to the next. Unless a passage is very long, try to memorize it all at once instead breaking it up into pieces. If you must learn it piecemeal, keep the chunks as big as possible, and work hardest on learning the links between the chunks. For example, if you are memorizing the Preamble to the Constitution, emphasize the first word of each statement to get yourself started. Repeat the fact or idea or passage until you know it cold--then wait five minutes and repeat it a few times more. This is called over learning.

Tape lists of the material you are memorizing in various places: the bathroom mirror, a kitchen cabinet door, your car dashboard, your wallet, etc. This way you can practice your recall at every opportunity.

Cramming (last minute preparation)

Last-minute cramming is not a good thing to do. It is definitely not learning and it is a very ineffective way to prepare for a test. In order to effectively prepare for a test at the last minute, you must be very selective in what you study. You must eliminate from consideration most of what you should learn in order to study and remember what you must know in order to get a passing grade.

Select only a handful of the most general and significant main ideas from each chapter of the text and from your lecture notes. Write this information down, along with the absolute minimum of supporting facts and details. Put aside all your other materials and concentrate all your efforts on those few study sheets. Obviously, you have taken a chance by selecting only certain ideas and facts, but trying to remember too much dooms you to remembering nothing.

CA CS CWA/CMA Exam Tips How to How to Pass Exams Study Tips

Thursday, 16 January 2014

Hi..students, here i'm trying to suggest some useful tips to pass CA, CWA, CS exams.Of course all below given tips are already known by every student. Here i hardly tried to describe already known tips. That's why i mentioned it is an idiot's ultimate tips to pass exams. Now let's go.

Attend Classes Properly

The very first step to pass any exams is attending classes. Attending each and every class is very important for all CA, CWA/CMA, CS students. Without proper knowledge of subject you cannot clear out exams. So focus on the professor’s classes and learn subjects without doubts. One of the common mistake of a student who attends the exams is attempting the exam with mindful of doubts.

Don’t sleep in classrooms.
Don’t waste time in class’s intervals.
Don’t go late classes.

Just know the lesson and try to understand the lesson in text-book or material before your teacher telling that lesson in classroom. This will help you to understand subject very easily. And you’ll got a chance to clarify your doubts when you trying understand it before.

Also Read :

Revise the lessons daily, weekly, monthly

Our subject is always seems very easy to understand in classrooms especially law, tax, auditing etc. theory subjects. Even in preparation time we can do any problem or we can answer any theory and we can explain that subject to our friends. But here the very known truth by every student is “we don’t have remember that subject in exam hall”. The very common problem said by every student is “I practiced it very well and I knew/read that question but I failed to remember it in exams”.

The only solution for this common problem is Revision. Only revision or practice makes you perfect in subject. Minimum 3 times of perfect revision will keep you safe side in exams. So you have to revise each and every lesson and topic daily, weekly and monthly.

Be Perfect in Institution's study material and practice manual

In exams the major topics and model problems are asking from Institution's study material and practice manual. it is very better for you to be perfect in these text-book/study material and practice manual. First do practice both study material and practice manual and later go to your other favorite materials. Of course other reference books are also important to easy understand of subject but don't neglect Institution's material.

Combined Studies

Combined studies also will play key role to passing exams. Because in combined studies we have a chance to clarify our doubts immediately and save our time from wasting by doubts. And there is also a chance to wastage of time with bad friends/classmate or roommates. Choose friends wisely and do combined studies. Avoid chit-chat and talking useless.

Don't spend your full study hours for Combined Studies. also prepare your own self for 4 or 5 hours daily.

Practice RTP's,Mock Test Papers and Previous year papers

RTP's and Suggested Answers will help you to improve “Conceptual Clarity” in every topics of covered syllabus and it is very important to check out previous exams papers and solutions to get known about how Examination Board asks questions in exams.

Practice papers makes you pass Exams.

Test your self

Test your own self.conduct weekly tests your own self and check answers your own self.Testing your self will help you gain confidence to attempt exams without fear. It will safe guard you from exam fever and also increase your confidence level. High confidence level keep aside from forgetting subject.it’s an excellent opportunities to check your skills. Self-testing helps you see for yourselves which are the subjects you need to work on more.
