		Tips from those who've mastered the art of taking tests Whatever feelings you harbor toward formal testing, know there's no way to escape. There's always going to be another test. Thankfully there are ways to study harder and score better: Start studying yesterday If you haven't started yet, you're already behind. But always pace yourself. Cramming for five hours at a time is a good way to forget most of what you covered. Instead: study in smaller time chunks and do so more frequently. Exercise before you study Take a jog, ride a bike, or chase a squirrel. The movement will increase blood flow to your brain. Study in different places According to The New York Times, just switching study spots each time you study increases data retention. Avoid "test stress syndrome" Okay, that's not a real thing. We made it up. But test stress can have a real impact on your performance, so find ways to relax. Do a cartwheel. Snuggle a kitten. And above all else: sleep more. Check out FlashNotes.com With FlashNotes you get access to high quality study guides and lecture notes specific to your class. You can also create (and sell) virtual FlashCards right on the site!
