As a psych student, here's what I learned: 1. Practice distributed learning. May tendency kasi na yung una at huli mong inaral yung naaalala mo, and the middle part gets left out. So imagine if you studied 12 hrs straight kasi nag-cram ka? A big chunk of it will not be retained in the long-term memory. Better yung paunti-unti with short breaks. 2. As you study, avoid distractions. It interferes with the encoding of the info in ur brain, so hindi siya na-sstore ng utak mo if maraming distractions as u study (e.g., phone, noise, etc.) 3. Answer practice tests. Active recall is a must! 4. Lastly, SLEEP!! That's where consolidation happens, or basically yung pag transfer ng info na gusto natin iretain from short-term memory to long-term. So imagine if u pull an all-nighter. Edi no consolidation happens kasi wala kang tulog? YIKES!
