TIPS: 9 STUDY TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR LEARNING
Study tips anyone? |
Your study tips might be different from my own version, Please feel free to adapt any tips according to your preference. You want to improve your academic performance? You study so hard but end up with lower GPA than usual?
If you want to improve your GPA, you need to:
1. Start reading a lot of articles: Improve your English proficiency level
As a university student, English proficiency level is vital. From my point of view, students need to understand Basic English in order for them to understand subjects easily. Medium instruction in class is English. Therefore, whether you like it or not, you must at least learn how to read English articles (simple articles are better). Trust me, you will gain new vocabularies and have better understanding towards English usage.
Even a cat knows how to read a book! *Yikes* |
How does by reading a lot of English-related articles help you?
CASE STUDY! : Students who have poor English proficiency level might have difficulties when they need to answer questions in case studies. How can you answer the questions when you don’t even know the meaning and the real message within the case studies right?
That’s why it is very important to read! When you understand the whole situation given in the case studies, you can answer the questions based on your common understanding even though you don’t know the real answer (not all answers can be obtained from the case studies).
I will write about tips on how to answer case studies later.
2. Set your own aims and goals for the current and upcoming semesters
Setting your own goal for the current and upcoming semesters does help you to excel in studies. Like seriously it’s a big YES! For instance, you need to aim your estimated GPA so you will know that you are in the right track!
3. Go to class earlier and sit in front
It may sound simple or a little bit cliché, but this is what I usually do. Go to class earlier and reserve a spot in front of class. Sit in front of the class does help you in getting a better learning environment.
Another thing that you should take note:
JOT down on what your lecturers EMPHASIZE in class (something that he or she tends to repeat all over again- haaa ni lah hint exam antaranya. Ensure that you're alert with it. Kalau tak, rugi sangat)
Reaction : Boring classes |
4. Plan ahead: Grab your coursework marks!
For BBA Management and Entrepreneurship in UniKL Business School, majority subjects required 60% coursework and 40% final. (Except Technopreneurship: 70% coursework and 30% final)
Here’s the little trick that I always do (It works ALL the time):
You should obtain as much carry marks as possible (Less stress for final).
You should aim for at least range between 50/60 carry marks
Therefore, you will need another 30/40: This means you must score at least 75% in your final exam.
If you don't study smart, you'll regret it later! |
Why course work marks are vital?
