An Important Test

Hello! I hope you're doing well :)

Thank you for correcting me.

Today I want to write about how nervous I feel about an important exam and some learning advice.

Note: I'm aiming for an American English accent.

I've been studying for 9 months for an important test, I know that if I pass it, it will improve my life, but it includes 10 subjects and the minimum mistakes I can make are just 14.

At first I felt very anxious, I used to avoid it, however, I started studying some learning techniques and they improved my subjects learning journey drastically.

I want to share with you some of these learning methods :)

- Cornell Method
It consists in dividing your notebook into three sections: -The column of the questions section at the left side of the notebook.
-The text section at the right side of the notebook
-The summary section line, down to the notebook.
You can see it in the attached images section of this journal.

Absurd drawings
I make some absurd drawings or absurd problems to feel an emotion. This is important to remember what you learn, as it's said that "information + emotion = long term memory" .
For example, I drew the character Sponge Bob in my chemistry notes that are related to porosity.

Recall
I write an R when I review my questions with the Cornell Method and I mark the ones that I answered wrong.

Listening to music when studying.
I listen to music when I'm studying so that I can create emotions and remember more, as I said before.

Parfum.
I spray my notes with my favourite parfum in order to remember more, because the smell has such effect. Have you ever smell something and remember a specific situation/ stage of your life? I'm pretty sure that the answer is '"yes".

Pomodoro.
I set a timer for 30 minutes and then I put myself to rest for five minutes.

Studying in the morning.
Our willpower is big when it's early, when the sun goes down it start to fall. That's why I do my best to study in the morning, after I take a shower.

There are more methods I use but for now I'll write only these.

I hope you find this information useful.
Thank you for reading. Have a beautiful day!

An Important Test

Hello!

I hope you're doing well :)

Thank you for correcting me.

Note: I'm aiming for an American English accendialect.

Accent: the way of speaking, intonation.
Dialect: a version of the language specific to a region

I saw another user correct you to use accent on a previous journal but I would have felt rude correcting them, but dialect is the proper usage :)!

I've been studying for (the past) 9 months for an important test, I know that if I pass it, it will improve my life, but it includes 10 subjects and the minimum amount of mistakes I can make areis just 14.

Also correct + more natural slightly: I’ve been studying for the past 9 months to pass an important test,…

At first I felt very anxious, I used to avoid studying for it, however, I started studyingacquiring/picking up some learning techniques and they improved my subjects learning journey drastically.

Picking up - colloquial
Acquiring - formal, sophisticated

Either one works!

Today I want to share with you somea few of these learning methods with you. :)

More natural word order

- The Cornell Method

ItThis method consists inof dividing your notebook into three sections: -The column of the questions section atis on the left side of the notebook.

Cohesiveness,

-The text section at the right side of the notebookpage.

Notebook - the whole physical book
Page - just a single page

When we do examples involving paper, for example origami, we always refer to it as a single page, not notebook

- The summary section line, down to, which is at the nbotebooktom of the page.

Natural

You can see it in the attached images section of this journal.

Or:
I’ve attached an image of this method in the ‘images’ section of my journal.

Absurd drawings

I make some absurd drawings or absurd problems to feel an emotion.

Listening to music when studying.

I listen to music when I'm studying so that I can create emotions and remember more, as I said before.

Paerfum.e

In English we do headings with no full stops, if you put a full stop at a heading / sub heading this would be grammatically incorrect.

I spray my notes with my favourite paerfume in order to remember more, because the smell has suchcan have this effect.

Have you ever smellt/smelled something and remember a specific situation/ stage of your life?

I'm pretty sure that the answer is '"yes".

Pomodoro.

I set a timer for 30 minutes and then I put myself to rest fortake a five minutes break.

Correct examples:
“She’s taking a five.”
“They’re on their break.”
“I’m taking a break from studying.”

Studying in the morning.
