i read this studying tip:
Review lecture material the DAY it is taught.
Studies show that any new material learned will be forgotten within 24 hours if it fails to be transferred to long-term memory. Once again, no one's telling you to memorize it, just make sure it's somewhere in the back of your head when you need it.
can anyone expand on the short term -> long term memory thing to me? how do you know if you have done that? ok so after class ends i should spend half an hour reviewing everything then nap and then continue? bc would napping help you memorize material? (link)

Mkay!
So, you're right. It's important to reread your notes right after class. Throughout the whole day, keep looking over them, it really helps.
Sleep could help, but it's more important that it occurs at night. Study for about an hour each night on each subject. A good 8-9 hours will help retain the knowledge! Promise.
You can also help yourself while studying when you go over with colors. Color sticks in your mind more, which causes you to remember it much easier.
Also if you think of a funny way to think of it [like on full house with 'success'] it's so much easier. Usually when people study they just do that naturally, they think of an easy way to remember it.
Gooddddluck!
