I was taking up a few exams for the past few weeks, and happen to find that no matter how much time I put into it, the result was not really “pretty”… I am sure that there’s some skills that you will need to acquire in order to get better results in written tests.

Personally, I suck at written test, and was never a straight A’s student. The last time I got a straight A was in Form 3…hahaha…and after that, I guess my life’s been pretty much distracted and the grades starts to go haywire.

Maybe that’s one of the reasons why I took up the Film & Animation course, the grades are judged heavily on your projects rather than your written test.

Here’s some of the tips that I found while looking for the “Holy Grail” of studying to get better results. It contains some very useful information, especially if you are a student, and it’s also generic enough that you can apply some of the skills in other areas of your life.

• Listening
• Memorization
• Lecture Note Taking
• Note Taking Systems
• Note Taking Tips
• Personal Reading Improvement
• Procrastination
• Essay Test Preparation

• Test Preparation Suggestions
• Objective Test Taking
• Tips for Combating Test Panic
• Post Test Analysis
• Time Management Assessment
• Time Management Forms
• Time Management Strategies
• Time Management Schedules
• Time Saving Tips

There will be more exams coming up, and I hope I can really make use of these tips.
