Studying

Final Exams are next week, I'm going to be studying hard for it till the big day arrives. Had a busy day at work today, but its good as time flies when you have no time to idle, before you knew it, its time to go home :D

E-commerce, Marketing Management, Global Marketing
 I'm having E-Commerce, Marketing Management and Global Marketing this semester. It doesn't seem to be too hard, I hope I'll do well in it. I chose marketing as my specialization cause I despise finance and is no good in IT. I quite like browsing through my text books, there are many success stories, business strategies, colorful pictures and advertisements. I'm very interested in Entrepreneurship, E-business, Marketing and Research and Development. It would be great if I can get involved in these fields.

Organizer, booklets, pencil case
Before exams, I will make booklets like the above, one booklet per subject. Usually they are 5-6 pages of A4 paper folded in half and stapled together. And then, I would list down the topics that I need to focus on or topics I think will come up and make simple notes inside. Its one of the best ways that work for me, as I can remember better if I copy the information down, sometimes in colorful pens to make it more interesting.  It is said that colors can help trigger memory too. Besides, I can bring these little booklets with me so I can flip through it whenever I have some spare time. And I won't have to lug around huge text books.

Making notes
Summarizing notes, simplifying the words or doing brain maps can help memorizing notes better. These are just some of the ways I study, maybe it might help those who are still studying as well if they are interested to adapt this method.
