This will help you assess yourself about the areas you are not sure about and help you concentrate on preparing on those aspects. ● Cut Down On Social Media: It is very important that you stop immersing yourself in social media now that you have free time. Use apps that calculate your online activity. This will help you gain an insight into how many minutes per day you are wasting away. This will in the long run help with your productivity. ● Search For Relevant Study Material: Studying on your own can be quite challenging. Pages and pages of notes and textbooks may not be as useful as they were with your regular classroom learning. Find materials through various media outlets such as videos on YouTube and other websites meant for learning. ● Organize Your Study Space: Now that you are doing your preparations at home, it is very important that you declutter your space. Now, decluttering surely doesn’t mean you have to throw away all your stuff. Keep them organized so that you reach them when you need them instead of wasting time searching. ● Block Distracting Sites: If you consciously cannot restrain yourself from distracting yourself online, block certain sites so that you can stay focused.

Help yourself rejuvenate. ● Snack On Brain Food: It is obvious that being in the comfort zones of your house can make you snacky while studying. It is advised to chew on something from time to time to keep yourself active, but eating foods high in carbs and oily snacks do you no good. Eat brain-healthy snacks like nuts, yogurt, and berries. They not only keep you healthy but also increase your concentration. ● Use Flowcharts and Other Pictorial Aids For Better Organization: No not read on pages and pages of matter for long hours. That does not help you at all.

Bifurcate the information and make pictorial charts. This will help you compartmentalize and give enough importance to various pieces of information. ● Practice On Previous Exam Papers and Modules: Previous question papers will always help you get a better idea of how the present exam will be. Make sure you dig up enough material from the previous years and practice on them thoroughly. This is will get you acquainted with question patterns and time management. ● Explain What You Have Studied: Get your siblings to help you at such a situation. Every time you understand a concept, explain it to them. This exercise will further help you analyze how clear you are with your concepts. It will also tell you what aspects of the topic you need to concentrate more. ● Test Yourself: Other than solving question papers that have already been set, prepare small slip tests for yourself. Try answering them within a period. ● Eat Healthy: Eat normal healthy food. Do not binge on snacks and junk food.

Avoiding foods high in bad cholesterol will also help you keep you hearts and minds calm for the exam. ● Do Not Procrastinate: Studying at home may seem like you have a lot of time.

Procrastinating until a day too near to the exam and later cramming all the information will prove to be a disadvantage. ● Explore Different Learning Techniques: Your learning techniques may have proved beneficial previously but now with a changed scenario, it is advised to take up new techniques of learning to increase productivity. ● Get Acquainted With Your Exam: Go through the general instructions to make yourself clear of the conduction of the exam. This will help you be prepared in case you cannot have a face-to-face briefing discussion about the exams with your coach and guides. ● Be Updated With The Mode and Location of The Exam: In such an uncertain situation, exam locations and dates keep changing due to many concerns.

Keep yourself updated. An exam that was previously conducted in a location can now be conducted online. These changes are inevitable. It is your duty and concern to keep yourself updated.
