It recently came to my attention that I might be not studying efficiently. I want to outline my method and open it for critique and changes. Please include your method.
1) Attend a lecture, take notes on bottom of slides in my own words to clarify points, summarize. (1 hour)
2) Take lectures and summaries and on about 3-5 pieces of paper draw with charts, pictures, different colors, notes, etc. (2 hour)
3)Read through it 3 times before the test, spread out. Try to recite and redraw during three sessions (30 minutes, 30 minutes, 25 minutes).
4) Read again the day before test. If any snags, write it out until it is down pat (usually 2o minutes).
I feel like I'm missing some vital secret or method. I can't tell if I'm just inefficient or not as smart as classmates. People are always so vague when I ask how they study.
