I'm one of those people that finds it easier to remember things by writing them down. I'll write things down over and over until it's set in my memory. Also, if it's like with orders of events or something like that, i try to make up a song that makes sense. In biology I once remembered the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic by knowing that eukaryotic is the one with the nucleus, because it has the letters "eu" in it and so does nucleus. Just do anything you can to link a word with what it means, like what I did, read the material a billion times before a test, do practice questions in the book, ask yourself what the teacher will probably include on the test, and know the material. If nothing works, you might have a real problem; if your homework grades are really high and test grades are extremely low, you should talk to your guidance counselor or teacher about it. ]
whats happening is your getting stressed out and your mind cant think.i do it sometimes.just dont stress out before the test just think of it as a practice test.or tell the teacher.also when reviseing make notes in diffrent fonts and color it will make you rember it bettter.good luck ]
okay. study a lot a lot! especially for bio.. thats my bad subject for tests too!.. go over notes. ASK what the test is on.. write it down.. review.. study.. studdy sstudy.. *** oh and when youre taking the test.. and youre having trouble.. look to the top right corner.. .. it helps* ]
when your done completely redo the test..dont wander off and try to focus! dont let anything distact you..whether its the hot guy in front of you or your split ends..just focus!! --rachael ]
ur just like me!... ugh i hate test but u know just try your best and if u try ur best and still get a bad grade then your parents and teachers really shouldnt get mad at you.- christina =) ]
All those other things are really good suggestions. Be sure to get a good night's sleep and eat some kind of breakfast. Even just an apple. It helps you think better when you aren't hungry. ]
i was told that if you look to the top right corner then u start remebering stuff. it works for me. I know this becuase thats just how your ba=rain works ]
TALK TO YOUR TEACHER AFTER SCHOOL. I am in honors biology myself and I thought I knew the material but I kept getting C's on tests and thats not me. She helps me study and etc and I think its going to help my grade. Its nothing to be ashamed of, its something to be proud of. After all, this means that are you responsible and you WANT to get better grades!
I hope this helps leave one in my inbox,

bfore you get the test just think i studies i kno all of this stuff n im just gonna do the best that i can nd take a deep breath. ]
There are a few simple things you can do. First, have someone quiz you over your notes. That way you can see how much you really know. Then, even if you're by yourself, act like you're teaching the material to someone else. I know this sounds silly, but you remeber 80% of what you teach to someone else. It's only like 40% of what you read. I'm in education, and this is something i have my students do! it works really well. good luck and let me know how it goes! ]
