   1 Hi there:) Well parhdai ke mamle me there arent ant shortcuts. U are not there to just come through but a lot of what u learn at school u will truly be useful later on. So its not just about getting through its about learning as much as u can. What i used to do when i went to College i made a plan for the week and the month. Har ek din me kitna parhna hain. And if i for one day didnt managed to dosre din sara parh kar barabar karna parhta ta. Its very importent to have these kinds of plans for the first it would take away the tension that ur fare behind coz it will keep u ahead. And second u will by the plan keep it on a high priority. The plan would help u get throuht all the books in time before the exam and leave out time to go through it once more faster nearer to the exam. And about night reading. I never did that. Din ko jagna tou night ko aram ki bohot zarorat hota na. Or else its difficult to keep on for long. Just try to manage ur time right at day. Give the parhai a high priority and inshallah ull manage just great. Its also very useful to read together with classmates to discuss the curriculum. So do make a group and read together. THat motivates u all to keep on reading and by sharin views u learn so much more. How to see the theory from different views na Good luck

   2 Well I would give you a few tips of which a few may help. 1) When you study always make it a point to write down in points what you are studying, neatly. This helps you retain what you study better & also helps you when you need to recollect the points when you revise later. 2) If you are getting bored studying the same subject switch to another subject for sometime. It not only helps you understand the subject better but also helps in memory retention. 3) Studying should be carried out only when you are rested, alert, and have planned for it.The best time to study a subject for the first time would be the time when you find your mind is clear. For most of us it is very early in the morning or late in the nite after a short nap. 4)Make a schedule & follow it religiously as time is very valuable & one can not waste it. Make a time table as to when you will study & what you want to study & most important follow it.Avoiding study is the easiest thing in the world, so make a comittment to yourself to follow the schedule you have planned for studying. 5) When you read make sure you understand what you are reading. Use a highlighter to highlight the main stuff you need to remember.Read the same thing again & again because the more you read the more it gets recorded in your brain. 6) Dont study as soon as eat or even immediately after a nap. Give it a good 30 minutes after a meal or break to clear your mind.Take a lot of short breaks every one hr,maybe 10 minutes, this helps in retaining what you study. Well hope these few tips I studied n used as a part of my Psychology chapter on Memory helps you. Happy Studying.!!!
