Taking Advanced Placement courses can be stressful, especially when it comes to the exams. Earning college credits while still in high school sounds fantastic, until it all comes down to the exam day. You can find more than enough “study tips” on the internet, but rarely anyone talks about how to curate those studying strategies for oneself. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Here are the Best AP Test Prep Tips just for you!
GET TO KNOW YOURSELF
YouTube can give you all the techniques in the world, but it can’t tell you what your style is. You have to ask that to yourself. What is your study style? How long can you study for? How much can you study in one sitting? And so on.
GET PLANNING
Make the system work for you, instead of getting limited by it. Create a study plan that suits you. Figure out which timings work for you and which don’t. It’s alright if you slip up a couple of times, so long as you’re getting there most of the time.
SELF ASSESS
See how your study plan is going, and make necessary, effective changes. Let the plan evolve and grow to fit you. Small changes in life can sometimes make a mess of your routine, so let it, and then make the mess yours. You don’t need to be rigid with yourself.
REMEMBER TO UNWIND
Regularly scheduled breaks are just as important as intense study sessions. Realise when you’re reaching your mental saturation point, and give yourself a little break.
DO CELEBRATE!
Big or small, an achievement is an achievement. Reward yourself for them all. You will find yourself a little more motivated.
