Super top students: the most efficient learning method for top students

Chapter 47
Anxiety before the test is the first reason that affects test scores, and it is very harmful.It not only affects the performance of this test, but also distracts attention, inhibits learning creativity, destroys good study habits, reduces learning efficiency, and fundamentally damages learning effects.

Anxiety before the exam is partly caused by the fear of failure, especially if you don’t pay attention to mental health exercises, you are not cheerful enough, and you are afraid of one failure and then you are afraid of the failure of the whole future; part of it is caused by inferiority complex.Subconsciously, I think that no matter how hard I try, I cannot pass the test because I have many objective and subjective shortcomings that cannot be overcome.

Due to the inferiority complex, the excitement is often concentrated on "if you do not pass the exam, you will be looked down upon by others", and your thoughts weigh one heavy burden after another; some students also have anxiety before the exam because they are easily nervous.Students with this kind of mentality watch movies at 6 o'clock in the evening and can't do anything at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. As the saying goes, "I can't hold my heart anymore."

The most important thing to eliminate pre-exam anxiety is to build self-confidence, believe that "I am not so easy to fail", "I am not much worse than others, the same person, if he can do it, I can do it too"! "Even if the next minute is an exam, I am still calm for this minute."

Here, please always remember: the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road!

Exam answers have secrets
First of all, you must read the paper calmly and calmly, carefully read the test questions for a single subject, and understand the meaning of the questions correctly. If you find any questions that are not clear or understand, you should immediately raise your hand and ask the teacher to explain clear.Also pay attention to the following 7 things:

(1) The first step is to browse the test papers. Don’t just focus on one point of the whole set of test papers. You must quickly understand the characteristics of the test papers as a whole, and it only takes a few minutes.

(2) It is necessary to see the total number of questions, the key points of each question, the difficulty, the time spent, and the score, so as to arrange the order of answering questions and the time for answering questions in the next step.

(3) Of course, I am very happy to meet the questions I have done before, but I should also be careful. It may be that a similar question has been changed from a different angle, and the direction of answering the question will naturally be different, so pay more attention.

(4) When reading the questions, remind yourself in your heart that this is relatively unfamiliar, and you should be more careful and think about it later, and remember not to think about it here or think that you will lose points here...

(5) When you read a difficult problem, you should warn yourself in your heart that this is more difficult, and you need to work harder later, and you must not stay here or think: "It's over, I can't do it here..."

(6) While browsing, remind yourself to pay attention and be careful where it is easy to answer wrong questions.For example, some subjects adopt the method of "one volume, one outline, two bifurcations with the same score", so some test papers have bifurcated questions, which are divided into two groups, A and B, and candidates are limited to one group.If both groups are done, only Group A will be scored.

(7) After you browse the test papers, don’t dwell on the test papers, and don’t be happy because the test questions are easy, or worry because the test questions are too difficult. You should decide and arrange the order of solving questions and the answering time as soon as possible.

Then, take a look at it as a whole, there are several types of questions in the whole volume, such as: conceptual question and answer questions, calculation questions, true and false questions, multiple choice questions, essay questions, etc. How many points can be given for each question, so that the exam can be allocated Time, test questions that account for more marks can be considered first.The exam can start with the easiest questions, which can increase confidence, and the knowledge you have mastered can be fully reflected on the test paper.

The next thing to do is to review the questions. Reviewing the questions is to examine, speculate, analyze, identify, research and deduce the questions before answering them, so as to clarify the meaning and requirements of the questions.Reviewing questions is the key to answering questions in the exam. If the questions are not reviewed well, start to do the questions, or choose wrong answers and miss answers, or go the wrong way.

Regardless of ordinary exams or major exams, many students often hear self-blame and regret after the exam. What they blame is not that they are incompetent or unable to answer the questions, but that they are not clear about the questions, missed the questions, and misunderstood the questions. I feel distressed and regretful that I have not displayed my abilities.In order to avoid similar situations from happening to other students, I remind students to pay attention to the following 5 points when reviewing questions:
(1) Don't be afraid of time-consuming examination questions. "Sharpening a knife does not cut firewood by mistake".Although it takes more time to review the questions, it has laid a solid foundation for the correctness of the answers.If you don't understand the requirements of the questions, you will answer the questions blindly without thinking, which will cause you to lose points for getting the meaning of the questions wrong, or think about it wrong halfway through, and start over and start over, which will not only waste more time , and affect emotions.Therefore, don't be stingy with the time for reviewing questions, so as not to lose too much for small things.

(2) Definitely examine the topic.The purpose of reviewing questions is to read the questions silently, understand the requirements, meaning, and type of the questions, grasp the key words, grasp the breakthrough point, and find out the key points of the answer.There are "ten things" to be done when reviewing questions: one is to be serious; the other is to be careful; the third is to understand the meaning of the question; the fourth is to understand the meaning of the question; It is necessary to find out the key points of the correct answer; nine or not to read the wrong question; ten or not to miss the question.

(3) Read the original question several times when reviewing the question.Don't rush when reviewing questions, try to be steady, slow, and accurate, and read the original question several times to improve the accuracy of reviewing questions, strengthen the pertinence and purpose of problem solving, and avoid blindness and randomness.When reading silently, you can use a pencil to mark the known conditions, potential conditions and problems that need to be solved in the question one by one, so that you can read the questions while typing the manuscript, and do not simply apply the familiar question types instead of reviewing the questions .

(4) Review the questions before writing.Reviewing the questions is the key to answering the questions. Only after reviewing the questions and then answering the questions can the questions be answered accurately and quickly.Some examinees were careless in reviewing the questions, and started to answer the questions without understanding the meaning of the questions at all. As a result, they answered wrong questions, resulting in serious loss of points.Before starting to write, carefully read every word and sentence in the original question, and understand it once. Because people have a fixed mindset, they read the wrong question the first time, and often read it wrong the second or third time.See clearly the requirements of the question, recognize whether it is a compulsory answer or an optional answer, and to what extent the requirements are; see clearly every known condition given in the question, and try to avoid omissions, misreading, and misunderstood.After reviewing the question clearly, write the answer by hand, so that you don't understand the meaning of the question and don't do it.

(5) When reviewing the questions, pay special attention to analyze and distinguish the keywords and terms in the questions, such as "brief description", "discussion", "overview", etc., and do not misunderstand or confuse their meanings , both are wrong.Hold these questions tightly and answer them as required.

After reviewing the questions, we will enter the next link: the answering stage.Answering questions refers to expressing the ideas and results of solving the questions in words after reviewing the questions. It is a process of both hands and brains.The method and technique of answering the questions are correct or not, which is the most important factor related to the success or failure of the exam.Because what has already been thought of can be clearly expressed with subject terms and symbols, and requires concise words, correct calculations, and accurate expressions. It does require certain efforts, methods, and skills to reprocess the already obtained problem-solving ideas.

In order to improve the quality of the answer, be sure to pay attention to the following 10 points.

1. Do the questions seriously
From entering the examination room, starting to review questions to the last second after answering papers, we must be serious and treat the examination with a dedicated attitude, so that the examination will give you an excellent result.Some students are half-hearted. During the exam, they are distracted, full of loopholes, and answer the questions without reading them.After answering part of the question, they found out that they were off topic, which not only wasted time, but also messed up the test paper;This is all due to carelessness, carelessness, and paralysis.Therefore, you must be careful and meticulous when answering questions, and concentrate on it, and never distract yourself.

2. Be cautious
When you encounter a test question that you feel is easy, you must not "forget about it with joy".You must understand that the exam questions are generally not very easy or too easy. There may be "pitfalls" in the easy questions, and you must not jump into the "pitfalls".Therefore, when encountering easy questions, not only should your mind not be paralyzed and your thoughts not be relaxed, but you should be more cautious and treat them with a serious and meticulous attitude, so that you will not suffer in the face of "easy" questions.

3. Don't worry
When encountering difficult problems, don't be nervous, because it is normal to have difficult problems in the exam. If the questions are all easy, then the meaning of the exam will be lost.You must understand: the test questions are made for everyone, you are difficult and others are difficult, and if you can't do it, others may not be able to do it. "When the water falls, the boat is low", everyone is equal on the score line.If you really can't do it, give up first, and then return to slowly conquer it after finishing other topics.

4. Be careful
When encountering a question that seems to have been done before, you should be more careful in thinking, review the question repeatedly, and never simply follow the practiced method simply and rashly.Because these kinds of questions are often similar in appearance, but the content, requirements, and solutions are completely different. If you "take it for granted" to solve the questions, you will definitely make mistakes. Many people have suffered from this.Therefore, it is necessary to carefully examine the meaning of the question before writing.

5. Believe in yourself
When encountering a question that you have never seen before, you must first stabilize your emotions, strengthen your confidence, and recall slowly.Because there will be no test questions that are completely beyond the content of the textbook and the syllabus, the question maker will not tease the candidates on the test questions, asking the candidates to guess the riddles, and they must believe that the knowledge they have mastered is completely capable of doing this question.At this time, calm down and recall which part of the textbook the content of the topic belongs to, and think about the knowledge system of this part and related problem-solving ideas and methods.At this time, you may figure out a clue from it, and "the willows are dark and the flowers are bright" appear in "the mountains and rivers return".

6. Think differently

Don't feel helpless when encountering special types of questions.This type of question often has a set of conventional solutions. Once the conventional solution cannot be solved, it means that the question has something special.The most important thing at this time is not to panic, not to be anxious, just like untying a knot in a rope, the more anxious and panicked, the harder it is to untie.At this time, it is necessary to find out the "problem eye" of the test question, that is, the key word sentence, which is the first condition for answering this type of question well.Then change the angle, think about the problem from multiple angles, try to divide a problem into several levels to understand, or use several methods and principles to solve it, or use reverse thinking to solve it, so that you can solve it in a certain place. Suddenly bright, easy to solve.

7. Decomposition completed
Don't be afraid when you encounter comprehensive questions, let alone feel "nowhere to start", as long as you use the decomposition method, you can solve them completely.First break down the big question step by step into several small questions, then make each small question, and finally put it together to get the correct answer.

Secondly, many big questions in the exam are formed by combining several small questions in the textbook.Once you understand this principle, you will have a solution to this type of problem.

8. Leave questions
Such a phenomenon often occurs in the examination room. The questions, concepts, theorems or formulas that are usually very simple and familiar are suddenly forgotten when answering the questions.When encountering such a problem, first of all, you should relax your mind and don't panic, and don't sit there thinking hard, put this question aside and do other topics.When doing other topics, the forgotten content will often "jump" out automatically.If you still can’t remember it after looking back, first think about the content of the knowledge points before and after the forgotten part in the textbook or notes, and then connect these knowledge points for recall.You can also look for the content of other test questions on the paper to see if it can inspire the memory of the forgotten part.As long as you pay attention or just think of a word or a word, you will be enlightened.

9. Never empty topic
Some questions still can't be solved after several times of hard work, and the time for the exam is running out, so I can't continue to think about it for a long time. At this time, I can't let it go, let alone leave it empty.For this kind of questions, as long as the points are not deducted, you can guess with confidence and boldly "get confused". For those multiple-choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions, fill in according to your own feelings. It is known that simply pushing and pushing, even if there is only some vague consciousness, should be shown in the answer, and strive to get some small points.As long as you dare to do this, maybe you will guess right and be approved.It's better than leaving it empty and losing the chance to score.

10. Find wrong questions
Many students almost have a common habit. When they find that they have answered a wrong question, they will immediately erase or cross out and rewrite it.When you find that you have made a mistake in a question, don't rush to cross it out, but write the correct solution next to it before crossing it out.

Because sometimes after thinking about it, I find that the original solution to the problem is correct. If it has been crossed out, it will take time to copy it again, which will waste time.If you do make a mistake, don't use a pen to smear it, just circle the wrong place.

Most of the students in the examination room will have a certain degree of tension.As a result, a momentum is generated, that is, the speed of thinking is accelerated, but the breadth of thinking is narrowed; the speed of reading is accelerated, but the visual angle is reduced; the speed of behavior is accelerated, but the number of mistakes increases.It is common for students to make mistakes and omissions in the test questions that students complete at one time in the examination room. Therefore, a comprehensive inspection of the test papers is the best way to correct errors in supplements.Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the test paper as soon as possible after completing the answers.

Pay attention to four aspects when checking:
One is to see whether all the questions have been answered; the second is whether there are any missed answers; the third is whether the answering method is correct; the fourth is whether the answer corresponds to the question number.Here are 9 ways to check the above:
1. Flexible inspection

Inspection methods are often divided into two categories: one is for the purpose of checking for missing, missing, and wrong, and this type of inspection is mostly carried out in the way of "positive confirmation"; the other is for the purpose of judging whether the direction of the answer is correct This type of inspection is mostly done in the way of "reverse confirmation".However, it is far from enough to use only these two methods for inspection. It is best to combine multiple methods and use them flexibly to achieve fast and good inspection results.

2. Reasonably based on time
The time in the examination room is precious, so the examination should be arranged reasonably, especially when the time is tight, it is more important to check the big questions that account for a lot of points.

3. Start with reviewing questions

Checking should not be aimless, you can consider starting with reviewing questions first, and start checking step by step, which will make it easier to prevent major mistakes, because reviewing questions is the most critical step in entering the test questions.

4. Start with conditions

Starting from the conditions, you can quickly and effectively check whether the answer is correct. This is the most direct checking method, which is relatively simple.

Start with the analysis of the answer conditions to see whether the answer meets a variety of situations.This inspection method is relatively time-saving and convenient.

5. Check-and-answer process

The process of answering questions is the main body of inspection activities. Read the process of answering questions from beginning to end, and treat each step with a rigorous attitude.

Read the questions and answers from beginning to end to see if there are any mistakes or omissions in the answering process. This method is suitable for simple test questions and essay questions.

6. Reverse inspection

Substitute the result into the formula to see if you can reversely solve the known conditions given by the original question, or deduce from the obtained conclusions to the known conditions.This is the most typical way of "reverse confirmation".

7. Check the answer

For selective test questions, due to the small type and large number of questions, write the question number and the symbol of the answer on a piece of paper after checking, and then compare them one by one to avoid filling in wrong boxes or missing fills.

8. Redo validation
If time permits, you can redo some of the key points of the test questions. If you get the same answer for two answers, there will generally be no mistakes in the solution to such questions.You can also redo the test questions that have many problems.

9. Error correction
It is also called the "fault" special inspection method, which is to specifically check the old faults that are easy to make mistakes when the inspection time is insufficient.For example, changing the number of items, unit conversion, unreasonable sentences, incorrect graphics and typos, etc.

Check the answers for clues
It is worth reminding that using a scratch paper that you understand, clear, orderly and well-structured is the best and most effective clue to check the answer.Therefore, when using draft paper, it must be conceived and planned in advance to facilitate inspection and use.

Students should also pay attention to not being disturbed in the examination room.

The atmosphere in the examination room often interferes with the concentration of candidates. It is very likely that you will hear the rustling sound of the test paper before you finish half of the test paper; maybe someone starts to hand in the test paper just after half the test time, which is the most likely to cause yourself to panic. .In such a situation, you must be calm, and don't distract your attention and energy by looking at the watch for a while, and then looking at the watch again after a while.At this time, you must absolutely believe that those people are not capable, let alone smart.

At this time, you must tell yourself in your heart: "Don't worry, there is still more time?" You must not be disturbed by those people, otherwise, you will make yourself flustered, nervous, and not in a stable mood to continue working on the problem.

The most important thing in the examination room is the score, not the first to submit the No.1 paper.Handing in the paper 1 minute earlier will reduce the time for checking mistakes and the chance of scoring by 1 minute.You must let yourself remember that no matter how easy the test questions are, you cannot hand in the papers in advance. Even if you are very sure, don’t indulge yourself to hand in the papers in advance; you must force yourself not to hand in the papers before the time, and sit until the end. Minutes, maybe it was in the last minute or two that there was an error somewhere.Every minute in the examination room is precious, and it is unwise to waste a minute. You must use the limited time to carefully check and verify the test papers and questions repeatedly, and you must not give up every minute in the examination room for nothing.

In short, during the examination process, if you take your time, calm down, arrange your time actively and effectively, and maintain a good state of taking the exam, you can perform at your due level like a top student.
