                               "HOW TO STUDY FOR EXAMINATIONS"
         SECRET STEP 1. Focus only on subject and courses you offer.
   In every level of education you find yourself, there are specified subjects you are required to offer. Let us use collage level students as a case study. In collage, science students are required to offer: MATHEMATICS, ENGLISH LANGUAGE, PHYSICS, CHEMISTRY, ECONOMICS, BIOLOGY, AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE AND GEOGRAPHY. While art students offer:  MATHEMATICS, ENGLISH LANGUAGE, LITERATURE IN ENGLISH, COMMERCE, ECONOMICS, CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS STUDIES, AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE AND BIOLOGY.
   A science student preparing for examination should never engage in studying subject not related to their area. If you are a science student, the period you are studying for examination is not the time to read or study subjects from other areas you find interesting, no! Doing so will only jeopardize your chance of succeeding in exams. Though studying wide is not bad for a student because such can enrich your knowledge and helps you to understand the world and you. But there is a time for everything, prior to your examination is not the right time for that. There are always holidays, you can cease such time to study as widely as you wish, that will be very rewarding.
   SECRET STEP 2. Strictly follow scheme of work.
  Most student fail to follow schemes, which is not encouraging. Your examination questions rally round your scheme for the section. So if you happen to be familiar with every bit of information contained in all topics in your scheme, exam questions will be a walk over for you. That is how rewarding applying your scheme of work can be. Never you as a student endeavor to work without your scheme, but rather study all information the scheme requires you to be acquainted with.

This can be very rewarding, so always keep this at the back of your mind as you run the race of studying for exams.
   SECRET STEP 4. Your study time. 
   This is another powerful tool you may not have given the needed attention. When I was in collage, I witnessed this severally. Many student tends to start studying some weeks before exams, some even go to the length of studying at the examination day out of pressure. Such act is an academic sin that does not deserve forgiveness. Studying effectively requires more than enough time as it entails so many tactics that needs to be applied appropriately. Now imagine a student who just began studying when he discovered that examination comes up in a week time. How far and well will that student study? One should always apply discernment when handling any situation. It is clear to all student that there are always going to be exams at the end of all academic section.

Many people have done this in the past, a good example is "MICHEAL FARADAY" He spent quality time in studying that he even forgot to eat his food. Such is a good example that worth's emulating by every serious student.
