Put them on flashcards and study study study all night untill your brain hurts. That's all you can do. Hope I helped!

well first turn off everything-- tv AIM radio, i didnt say computer because ill tell you

first read your textbooks OUTLOUD statistics show that if you read something out loud once you will be able to remmeber more of it then if you read it 2 times to yourself

also while your reading jot down notes so your usiing a lot of ur senses at once


then read OUTLOUD any notes and handouts your teachers gave you

then look online for maps to study and information online to study , go beyond your school resources if you knoww hat i mean

good luck! youll do fine! <3

p.s.--another thing to help you is your attitude if you say youll fail you probably will tell yourself over and over that youll ACE it and stuff

get a good nights sleep the night before and EAT BREAKFAST!!

oh try downloadig a blank map off the internet and try to fill it in without looking at any resources see how you do and study the things youget wrong

Well first i would def. study your textbook or any handouts your teach gave you. then from that make up a list of questions you think would be on the test. have your mom or dad ask you them or just take it yourself and grade. for the ones you get wrong study them extra hard and ask the questions again. also if that doesnt sound good, flashcards always work! next time dont wait till the last minute unless its not your fault cuz its really hard to cram it all in the night before! =)

&hearts; good luck...u'll ace it!

write the country, and capital on the page repeatably until you memorize it. then point out a way to distingguish the capital like, USA and Washington DC both have initials, u.s.a = d.c.
a little rhyming song usually halps me. it's lame, i know but i always sing one to myself while studying and it helps!
read your notes out loud, it is more effective then just reading to yourself because the message is sent through your brain three times instead of one.
If you need shorter names, use initials. like Spain and it's capital Madrid would be S-m or if that's too general, SP-MD. this is only effective if the test includes a word bank.
hope i helped and good luck on your test!

in africa??
ok no problem

type all the info up in three columns (country, location, capital) and then list all of the countries and study them..try to memorize them!! and then you can get something to cover up the columns and quiz yourself

do you get it??
like you NEVER cover up the country column and then you cover up the capital and location columns and see if you can recite them without looking

it worked for me and a europe quiz

africa is pretty easy...just try to actually SPEND TIME until you get them all correct!!
all you need is the patience...

I HOPE THAT HELPED
please give me feedback on my site!!
