Prepare for exam.
1. Give yourself enough time to study
Don't leave it until the last minute.
While some students do seem to thrive on last-minute 'cramming', it is very dangerous for our brain to push up all night long.

Well study with on line into socmed isn't the good enough. You couldn't focus what you study.
3 Use flow charts and diagrams
Visual aids can be really helpful when revising. At the start of a topic, challenge yourself to write down everything you already know about a topic - and then highlight where the gaps lie.
Closer to the exam, condense your revision notes into one-page diagrams. Getting your ideas down in this brief format can then help you to quickly recall everything you need to know during the exam.
4. Practice on old exams
One of the most effective ways to prepare for exams is to practice taking past versions.
You can find out in the Internet or your university's Web.

5. Explain your answers to others
That is why you need to share and discus with others.
Explain an answer to a question to them. That will help you to get it clear in your head, and also to highlight any areas where you need more work.

6. Organize study groups with friends
Get together with friends for a study session. You may have questions that they have the answers to and vice versa.
As long as you make sure you stay focused on the topic for an agreed amount of time, this can be one of the most effective ways to challenge yourself.

7. Take regular breaks
While you may think it's best to study for as many hours as possible, this can actually be counterproductive.
If you were training for a marathon, you wouldn't try and run 24 hours a day!
Likewise studies have shown that for long-term retention of knowledge, taking regular breaks.

8. Snack on 'brain food'
Keep away from junk food! You may feel like you deserve a treat, or that you don't have time to cook, but what you eat can really have an impact on energy levels and focus.
Keep your body and brain well-fuelled by choosing nutritious foods that have been proven to aid concentration and memory, such as fish, nuts, seeds, yogurt and blueberries.
The same applies on exam day - eat a good meal before the test, based on foods that will provide a slow release of energy throughout.
Sugar may seem appealing, but it won't help when your energy levels crash an hour or so later.
9. Plan your exam day
Make sure you get everything ready well in advance of the exam - don't leave it to the day before to suddenly realize you don't know the way, or what you're supposed to bring.
Check all the rules and requirements, and plan your route and journey time.
10. Drink plenty of water
As a final tip, remember that being well hydrated is essential for your brain to work at its best. Make sure you keep drinking plenty of water throughout your revision, and also on the exam.
