On December 19, the Electors of the Electoral College will cast their ballots. If they all vote the way their states voted, Donald Trump will win. However, they can vote for Hillary Clinton if they choose. Even in states where that is not allowed, their vote would still be counted, they would simply...

TEST REVIEW

I just wanted to know if anyone could give me some tips on how to make a schedule to study for the math part of the SAT/ACT??

And how to stick to it and how should I review?? Any help would be greatly appreciated:)

Benefits of spaced repetition:

The more times you review material, the longer it takes to forget.

The more times you review material, the less time it takes to remember 100% of it during the next review and reinforce retention.

[studyspo]

This is really important - if you want to learn something properly (rather than just cramming it), you need to pay attention to repeating the material over time.

I use Anki for this very reason - it works on spaced repetition so you’re not cramming it, you’re actually learning it properly.

There are other similar apps out there but Anki assumes that you’ve never fully memorised it, which I find useful!

You can make use of this information by regularly reviewing your notes over the course of the school year rather than just looking at them for the test. That way you’re not studying material you’ve already forgotten!
