4. Study Habits Decide when to study and set aside a certain number of hours a day or a week to do it. Choose a quiet place so you will not be interrupted. Have good lighting. Find a comfortable, well-ventilated place to work. Make sure you have all the tools you need (pencil, paper, note cards, calculator) before you start. Give your undivided attention to the subject and shut out distractions. Survey the material you are going to read by scanning the paragraph headings and major topics. To better understand the material you are about to read, ask yourself questions about it first. Answer these questions as you read. If you are allowed to write in your book, underline or highlight important ideas; otherwise outline the material. Complete all the material. Answer any review questions provided in the text. Reread to clear up any misunderstandings. Take a 5-minute break each hour, doing something as different from reading as you can, such as physical exercise. Review consistently and periodically.
