Being a student, studying is a big part of my daily routine (well, it should be). I lately was wondering if my studying skills were good enough and if I could bring them to a new level, doing for example, faster revision, better remembering, etc. So I went to my favorite internet friend, Google. With a small search, how to study, I would find 2,020,000,000 results. Great. I simply took the first few pages and selected what I think is the best reference for a “how to study” text.
So here’s a list of website, each with a small description of what you can find there, also with my personal
Each step broken down into small categories, concise. Easy to read and about many different topics related to studying.
