[Basic] STUDY TECHNIQUES for high schooler

Hi.
There's quite a number of you guys who ask for study techniques. Bear in mind that the techniques used by different people might have a different impact on the other. Like I said most of the time, it all depends on you.

Yes, you can change it to adapt your style and the most important is you need to follow your own rules!
These RULES:
1. Put away your mobile phone or gadgets.
2. Make sure you study in a conducive environment. (Meja kemas, alat tulis cukup, buku tersedia)
3. Habis 1 hour (1 subject), get yourself a 5 minutes break.
4. Avoid distractions and noise, patuhi jadual peribadi anda. 
5. Itqan (bersungguhlah!)

After making prayer, let's get started :)

NUMBER 1
Always plan! You can plan for 1 hour per subject or spend more time on that subject if it's difficult.
Here's a tip: Look at your exam results and take out the subject/s that you got C and below. This is the subject that you need to focus more and find the solutions to ace it. Buat banyak latihan untuk subjek yang ni.

Award for most AWESOME study timetable goes to this Charles Rennie Mackintosh inspired effort. (scheduled via http://www.tailwindapp.com?utm_source=pinterest&utm_medium=twpin&utm_content=post64689850&utm_campaign=scheduler_attribution)

NUMBER 2 
Baca soalan 2-3 kali. Of course, kita malas baca soalan then end up tak faham apa nak buat dan jawab salah. Soalan tanya lain and you guys jawab lain - kurang atau telur ayam la jawabnya. Baca.
Masa study, inilah masanya nak berlatih fahami soalan dan cara menjawab.

NUMBER 3
Highlight/underline the keywords. Bila kita tahu kata kunci soalan, kita tahu nak fikir apa dan kita akan recap part mana yg kita dah baca. Practice masa buat latihan dan exam. Cikgu tahu kita ada effort, semua based on our papers. Kalau paper kita kosong, bersih, nampak sangat kita malas.
P/s: highlighting keywords will ease you to check and to prevent you from carelessness.

NUMBER 4
Read, repeat and recap. Especially subjek yg kena hafal, faham dan complex.
Mula-mula baca sekali harung to get the idea and flow.
Then baca sekali lagi dgn highlight keyword.
After buat latihan "open book" (latihan sambil refer buku), before tidur atau before main game, recap apa yang dah baca tadi. This will help you to remember better.

NUMBER 5
Never be ashamed of yourself. Jangan malu dengan kekurangan diri bila kita failed atau markah cukup-cukup makan. Dengan effort yang berterusan, insyaAllah kita boleh ubah gred kita towards better.
Also, jangan malu bertanya. Cari kawan yg boleh ajar sampai kita faham. On top of that, selalu berbuat baik dgn cikgu yg mengajar.
p/s: raise your hand & terus suruh cikgu terang semula jika tak faham dalam kelas. jangan tunggu dan redha diri tu tak faham-faham!

So yeah, these are the 5 basic techniques that probably might change your study style and thus, giving you a new hope. If you're currently practising it, carry on. :)

I didn't expect any but a more relaxed life after BPharm. It turns out to be a bored, waiting for something unconfirmed and life with a repeated routine. You're unemployed (mostly), broke, atrophic brain (unless you've started studying and playing memory games) and contemplating the slow-moving pace. Well, apparently, the life shouldn't be like that if you know what to do with your life. I didn't say that stay-at-home as an unemployed young adult is useless but the term of "berguna" applies only if they know how to make the time valuable and productive. It's your life and the choices are yours to make. Whether to lead boredom conquers life doing nothing, or to make life interesting and productive even if you're jobless. Here's something to think. The hikmah for those who still at home with endless chores and same routine every day until SPA interview are 1. You can always spend most of your time with family. Cook for them, make the pa...

The Lies I Tell Myself

You can still be pretty without those new clothes.  You can mix and match your dress with all the scarfs you currently have, they're overloading the "shawl box".  You can always smile bright even if you forgot to put on your balm or lipstick.  You can see his moves eventho you misplaced your spectacles.  You can always be better even if you fail the quiz.  You don't need those new colour blouse.  You are beautiful outside and inside.  You are going to be fine. I mean what can go wrong when you have you yourself as lover? As a hugger? As a masseur? As everything you want la.  Those lies I tell when I needed to console myself. To remind me that I'm broke and needless to say that my crave for retail therapy and fancy food is beyond my stomach size.  Save money la baby. Don't buy new dress. Don't look at new shades of shawl like you need it. Drink more plain water you don't need the cornetto. Eat rice till finish, no maggi-maggi anymore for your ...

First Tri

You couldn’t tell yourself whether you’re happy or scared. Probably both at the same time. The only strength to hold on is prayers to Allah to make this journey at ease and bearable.  With husband not around, it is hard to adapt with the new body as you don’t have anybody to talk to about the queasiness, nausea and ache. But he is always there to support whenever you’re in need although virtually. ❤️  It feels better to voice out the feelings/sickness as if it let the burdens off at the moment tho the only relief is the passing time.  But this is our prayers and hopes that comes in reality to which we should never complain of.  At the moment it is figured out, I am completely speechless. This is the first time I dont have any idea about it. It crosses my mind but I can’t figure it out. This is the miracle Allah wants me to feel inside me. In order to thank him, to be grateful of mothers and to be humble with His gift.  Ya Allah.  L...
