Nowadays, many teenagers only study a few days before an exam. In my opinion, this is not an effective way to study. It doesn't help us absorb knowledge.
During the holidays, I go to the library and revise with my friends. It's easier to concentrate in the library than at home. During lessons, I use a notebook to write down important points and key words. These practices help me remember what I'm taught.
I think we should use our time better: when we're waiting for a bus, or travelling to school, we can read a book or go over our notes.
I also create a schedule. This can help make the best use of our time, as long as we follow the schedule.
Lastly, I think we have to set our minds to studying. If we do this, our results will improve.
