Study tools include but are not limited to flashcards, study guides, and you can even generate your own quiz. Sometimes it helps to study with friends.

3) Pick an appropriate study area

You should always study in a location without any type of distraction. (EX. Library, park, bedroom, etc.…)

4) Keep yourself organized

Organization is the key to success. Keep a planner to schedule times to study. Make sure you write down all exam dates. Keep all your class homework and handouts in a designated area. These items will be useful while studying for your midterms.
