Intro

If you’ve ever wondered how elite college students enrolled in universities like Oxford are advised to study, this is how.

Create a Study Plan

A study plan is a good way to motivate yourself to study. How you create it is up to you. For example, you can add calendar reminders to your phone or even use a wall planner. Effective time management can go a long way.

Strategic Note-Taking

It is helpful to develop a more strategic approach to note-taking. Remember to cite your sources and make a note of the page number of each argument or quotation you select. Limit yourself to the most important points and summarize the arguments in your own words.

Extra: How to Review? 

Reviewing the syllabus for each module and identifying the topics you want to revise will help put your mind at ease. Try to identify your current level of knowledge on each topic. Is your knowledge strong, weak or in between? This will help you to assess the amount of revision required for each topic and identify any areas of weakness.

Once you know when your exams will be, create a timetable for each week that includes lectures, sports practice, time to relax and other important commitments, and then consider how much time is realistically available for studying. Be honest with yourself about how much quality work you can realistically get done each day.
