What are some REALLY good study tips for science courses?
I am passing my science courses, but I would like to do better (ahem, like perhaps an A once and awhile) but I don’t know what else to do to study. I write out my review several times, study in a group, read over my material and also make flash cards and quiz myself or have others quiz me. What else should or could I be doing to achieve an A? PS- Grad school chemistry/physiology/pharmacology A: Grad schools isn’t about memorization. It’s about understanding the material and being able to see connections. If you’re not doing well, you’re missing something. I did well in all my grad courses except quantum physics, because I had some mental block when it came to the relations between theories. I could do certain problems, but when confronted with something I hadn’t seen, I often couldn’t make the connection back to things I could recognize, or it would take me too long to do so and I’d have already blown the test. Along with pretty much everyone else, but still, I could see my problem.
