We all want to boost our score, don't we. Some subjects like Mathematics require us to have a firm hold over formulas and facts and we must be able to draw a clear picture of what the question is asking us.
Subjects like Science want us to have a firm grip of any theory revolving around the topic, and rather than memorizing it, we need to have a clear understanding of the concept being used.
But, subjects like Social Studies require rote learning and very less of understanding. A human brain cannot remember every thing it reads unless we have an eidetic memory which only some privileged people have.
What do others need to do, we need to revise the topic over and over again to make sure we don't forget stuff and I am going to tell you how to do that.
Why do books have questions at the back. Do you know ow the real reason. It's not just to test your knowledge that you have gained from the topic, but also to help you remember the most important things mentioned in the chapter.
Yes, this is what is required.
Instead of making notes, I suggest you to make questions, because in exams we have to answer questions. So if we already know what questions can be made from a particular text, we can answer it immediately.
So, what I am trying to tell is that, read a chapter and make questions related to those chapters and memorize them.
For eg if a paragraph goes like this:
"Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed. Gauge Pressure is the pressure relative to the ambient pressure.".
Instead of making notes from this we shall make questions out of it like:-
Q- What is pressure and how is it applied?
A-LINE
Q- How is pressure and Gauge pressure different?
These questions will certainly help you remember things over a long period of time.
