Exams and memory

Preparing for exams can feel like a challenging, but with simple and effective strategies can significantly improve your memory and learning capacity. 
 

By following these techniques, you'll enhance focus and retention, paving the way for exam success.
 

Break your study sessions into intervals (e.g., 25 minutes of focused study followed by a 5-minute break). This method helps maintain concentration and prevents burnout.

Create mind maps, charts, or flashcards to summarize important concepts. Visual aids make it easier to recall information during exams.

Teaching the material to someone else is a powerful way to reinforce your understanding. Explaining concepts in simple terms ensures that you've fully grasped the subject.

Good-quality sleep is essential for consolidating memories and improving cognitive function. Aim for 7–9 hours of sleep each night, especially before the exam.

Regularly test yourself on what you’ve studied. This active engagement strengthens your memory and highlights areas that need more attention.
