Make yourself a "study space." You know how they say never to work in bed? That's because if you work in bed, it suddenly becomes a place for work and not for sleep – we associate activities with where we do them. To take advantage of this, make a place at home just for studying. When you get there, your mind will go into the studying zone automatically, because it's the only association it has with that place.
- Have you ever heard of context-dependent memory? That's when your memory finds it easier to recall things in the place where it learned them.So if you study there one night, studying there the next will make it easier to recall what you studied before!
- If you can, have more than one study space – the library, at a friend's house, etc. Research says that the more places you study, the more connections your brain has and the easier it is to remember the facts you study
