BEFORE THE TEST: Prepare Your Brain & Body

These three strategies help you feel calmer, more focused, and more ready to remember what you know.

Chunk It Down Strategy

Chunk It Down

Break study time into small, manageable sessions so the work feels less overwhelming and your brain can actually absorb it.

Teach Someone Else Strategy

Teach Someone Else

Explain the material out loud to a friend, sibling, or even your pet. If you can teach it, you understand it.

Make a Cheat Sheet Strategy

Make a “Cheat Sheet”

Write down key formulas, vocab, and main ideas on one page. The act of making it helps your memory stick.
