5 Ways to Study Effectively for Exams during Pandemic

We all know that this and the last year has been different, schools have faced multiple closures due to pandemic. School and Education system has been disrupted majorly, affecting 1.6 billion learners of 190 countries or more.

Notifications of school closures were imposed at different times to curb the spread of Coronavirus. This step was taken to ensure social distancing and to keep children protected. On and off closure of schools impacted the academic continuity, and learning of students. Schools, educationists, and teachers shifted to the online education system to ensure that learning doesn’t stop. Though this new way of teaching and learning ensured the continuity of studies, it is much different from the traditional, Face 2 Face way of education, where you can physically experience the true essence of teaching and learning.

For some learners, online education is as effective as the unconventional one but for others, it may not be. Especially for learners appearing in the board or international college examinations. Studying at school gives students an entirely different exposure than online education. Students learn hands-on skills and get practical experience through student and community engagement programmes.

Whereas, this year, presumably education was limited to syllabus completion due to time limitations and challenges resulting from the pandemic. You may be among those learners who are comfortable with online education and have prepared well for exams or you may not be. Nonetheless, in any case, it’s quite normal to feel worried for examinations, specifically which are being held during the pandemic where uncertainty abounds.

If you will take up all the pressure on your head, how will you concentrate on the preparation for your exams? Follow the below given 5 effective ways to prepare well for exams without being exhausting due to stress.

1. Plan & Develop a Schedule:

Establish an effective study routine by making a timetable. Allocate time to your all courses depending on how much time you need to spend on a specific course. For instance, subjects like Mathematics require more time for practice.

Proper scheduling will help you achieve your daily goals of preparation and you will also get time to relax, eat and exercise. Bear in mind that scheduling will be effective if you have set daily goals. The goals should not be easily achievable or hard to achieve.

2. Take Your Family Onboard:

There might be someone in your family, with whom you feel comfortable in share your pressure. You can ask for their help. Your sister might be good at mathematics, or your brother in English. Your mother can be a physics wizard.

Yes, they might be busy but you can jot down the concepts or areas where you need conceptual clarity. They would definitely help you to understand few concepts.

3. Ask Your Peers or Fellow Friends for Group Studies

Take help from your peers and fellow friends. Group studies are effective as they will help you learn the course material in a deeper, more concrete way.

You can plan ahead what topic to study and then can gather over a video call to discuss the areas you are facing issues in. This activity will help you a lot in studying with a relaxed mind. You will feel better knowing that your friends are also on the same topic as you.

Those who are not comfortable in studying alone, or need a face 2 face time for conceptual clarity. They can call their friends over and create a study place on the terrace/balcony ensuring social distancing.

4. Avoid Distractions:
Don`t spend much time on social media or playing games as you would only be wasting time and will be stressed later on. You can play as many games as you want but after your exams.

Say No to family and friends for things they want you to be engaged in at your study time. Tell them clearly that this specific time is for your studies only.

Put a, “Do Not Disturb” sign on your room or study door.

5. Stay Focused while Studying

There is no point in spending hours studying if you are not focused. Let me say it clearly, physically, you are in your study room with the book in your hand but mentally you are on a water ride at Sunway Lagoon Malaysia.

Follow all the above tips and don`t worry, you will do well. Stay committed and put in your best efforts.
