5、ss as a student? In other words, do you have any special study techniques which have been very successful for you?Secrets of A StudentsEdwin Kiester & Sally Valentine KiesterAlex, now a first-year student in natural sciences at Cambridge, played football for his school in Manchester and directed the
6、 school production of a play but he left school with five As. Amanda, studying English at Bristol University, acted in plays at her school and played tennis regularly. Yet she still managed to get four As.How do A students like these do it? Brains arent the only answer. The most gifted students do n
7、ot necessarily perform best in exams. Knowing how to make the most of ones abilities counts for much more.Hard work isnt the whole story either. Some of these high-achieving students actually put in fewer hours than their lower-scoring classmates. The students at the top of the class get there by ma
8、stering a few basic techniques that others can easily learn. Here, according to education experts and students themselves, are the secrets of A students.1. Concentrate! Top students allow no interruptions of their study time. Once the books are open, phone calls go unanswered, TV unwatched and newsp
9、apers unread. This doesnt mean ignoring important things in your life, Amanda explains. It means planning your study time so that you can concentrate. If Im worried about a sick friend, I call her before I start my homework. Then when I sit down to study, I can really focus.2. Study anywhere or ever
10、ywhere. A university professor in Arizona assigned to tutor underachieving college athletes, recalls a runner who exercised daily. He persuaded him to use the time to memorise biology terms. Another student stuck a vocabulary list on his bathroom wall and learned a new word every day while brushing
11、his teeth.3. Organize your materials. At school, Tom played basketball. I was too busy to waste time looking for a pencil or a missing notebook. I kept everything just where I could get my hands on it, he says. Paul, a student in New Mexico, keeps two folders for each subject one for the days assign
12、ments, the other for homework completed and ready to hand in. A drawer keeps essentials together and cuts down on time-wasting searches.4. Organize your time. When a teacher set a long essay, Alex would spend a couple of days reading round the subject and making notes, then hed do a rough draft and
13、write up the essay. He would aim to finish a couple of days before the assignment was due so that if it took longer than expected, hed still meet the deadline. Amanda stuck to a study schedule that included breaks every two hours. Trying to study when youre overtired isnt smart, she advises. Even a
14、short break to stretch or get some fresh air can work wonders.5. Learn how to read. I used to spend hours going through irrelevant material, Amanda remembers. But then I got used to reading quickly; if the first sentence of a paragraph wasnt relevant, Id move on to the next paragraph. The best cours
15、e I ever took, says an Oklahoma student, was speed-reading. I not only increased my words per minute but also learned to look at a books table of contents and pictures first. Then, when I began to read, I had a sense of the material and I retained a lot more. To such students, the secret of good rea
16、ding is to be an active reader one who keeps asking questions that lead to a full understanding of the material being read.6. Take good notes. Before writing anything, I divide my page into two parts, says Amanda, the left part is about a third of the page wide; the right, two-thirds. I write my not
17、es in the wider part, and put down the main ideas on the left. During revision, this is very useful because you can see immediately why the material is relevant, rather than being worried by a great mass of information. Just before the end of lesson bell rings, most students close their books, put a
18、way papers, talk to friends and get ready to leave. But a smart student uses those few minutes to write two or three sentences about the lessons main points, which he scans before the next class.7. Ask questions. If you ask questions, you know at once whether you have got the point or not, says Alex
19、. Class participation is a matter of showing intellectual curiosity. In a lecture on economics, for example, curious students would ask how the Chinese economy could be both socialist and market-driven, thus interesting themselves not only in whats, but also in whys and hows.8. Study together. The v
20、alue of working together was shown in an experiment at the University of California at Berkeley. A graduate student there who observed a first-year calculus course found that Asian-American students discussed homework, tried different approaches and explained their solutions to one another while the
21、 others studied alone, spent most of their time reading and rereading the text, and tried the same approach time after time even if it was unsuccessful.After all, the secrets of A students are not so secret.
