Advice

• Do some homework at a fixed time and in a fixed (quiet) place every day.
• Study with other people.
• If you have "formulas" to memorize, write them out on a sheet of paper and try to reproduce that sheet without looking at it.
• When preparing for a test or quiz, pick out problems at random (either in the homework or the examples in the book) and try to do them as if you were in an exam situation (i.e., no peeking at notes).
• After a test or quiz, work through all the problems you missed until you can do them correctly.
