How to Plan and Study for Entry Test
How to Plan and Study for Entry Test
In
Pakistan, We usually don’t study daily. We wait for the last minute. Entry test isn't the game of days or weeks. It takes a lot of time to make you able to get
good marks.
I
have been in UET for 3 years. In these years, I have never seen a single
student who said I studied just few days and got the admission in UET.For
the preparation of entry test, you should have a good plan and you need to
stick to it.We
usually spend a lot of time to make a schedule for study. We follow that plan
for few days but then we eventually give up.We
usually give up mainly because of 2 reasons.
1.
We don’t plan properly
2.
We are not passionate
enough
If
you want to get admission in UET or any other Engineering University, you need
to work hard.You've probably already
figured out that having a plan helps you to study consistently (rather than giving up, or
cramming in hours of work just before exams). But how can you make sure you
actually stick to the plans which you’ve made?It’s easiest to
stick with a plan when you can see that it’s working! There are lots of ways to
track your progress: for example, you could tick off study sessions on your
calendar, or award yourself a gold star at the end of each week when you’ve
successfully completely all the studying which you.Firstly, be realistic. Many of us are prone to
over-estimating how much we can get done – and studying is a high-energy,
intense activity which requires a lot of concentration. You simply can’t focus
at that level for hours at a time.Sometimes, being
realistic about your studying plans might mean looking at the other commitments
in your life. Do you need to ditch something else in order to have time to
study effectively? Can you cut down on social activities to give yourself a
couple of weeknights free for studying?Figure out the times in a day where you are fresh. In those
periods you can study more effectively. I used to wake up at 3 A.M for the
preparation of entry test. That’s true. Because early in the morning every body
else was asleep. In early morning there was me and book. And I believe, at that
time of the day lesser irrelevant thoughts pop up in your head. So there are
lesser distractions. Consequently, you can study more efficiently.But unlike me there are lot of people who believe that studying
late night is easier than waking up early in the morning. I do agree to some
extent. Waking up early in the morning is difficult job. But you can thank
ALLAH because its Ramazan Kareem. After Sehri don’t fall asleep just grab you
book, open it and start studying.Or you can choose to study late at night, if that suits you.Even if you think you know what time of day’s best for you, try
experimenting for a day or two. As well as finding the
right time to study, you’ll want to find the right place. Your studying environment can make all the
difference when it comes to sticking to your plans. You’ll want to find a place where:
§ You’re not
likely to be interrupted
§ There are no
noises intruding (music etc is fine – but it should be noise which you choose)
§ You have enough
space to spread out any studying materials that you’re using
§ You’re in a
studying mood
§ It’s easy to
get bored with a study plan if you’re constantly working on the same things. If you feel bored
try to change the subject.Try these things§ Taking notes
from books as you’re reading
§ Reading for
half an hour, then writing down notes from what you
remember
§ Talking to
fellow students about what you’re learning. If you don’t have fellow to
discuss, you can go online. There are good communities where you can share your
and you can also get help from others. But don’t spend too much time online.
Just study a chapter take a quiz (I have posted a lot of quality MCQs free for
you people) and if you don’t understand leave the comment. Your fellows you
help you. But spending too much time on facebook groups is really bad.
§ Drawing
diagrams or pictures to help you remember or understand a concept
§ Make your own
keywords to remember difficult things
How often have you made a perfect study plan, only to have it
fall apart as soon as something unexpected happened? Life happens – and
sometimes you’ll have to cancel a planned study session in order to deal with
an interruption or an emergency.Be prepared for this in
advance: when you draw up your studying schedule, allow some “spare”
time which you can use if you need to catch up. Even
if your week goes perfectly, you may find that some areas of study simply take
longer than you expected – and this buffer time lets you allow for that. And
if you really want to get the admission then work with passion. You yourself
to study whole heartedly.
Exactly!
You hold the keys to your future. Pick the right key and put it into the right
lock to open the correct door of opportunity that will render you the greatest
return on your investment of time and effort. After the door open, yes, you
have the control and you have the power to write the story for your future. Be
flexible and able to deal with challenges as they arise! Preparation is the key
to success! Be prepared! .
I think that Tests Mate is crucial for graduating from any university. Every student should know how to write and I think you should be able to do it, too. I would recommend you to take some extra classes or enroll in additional course.
