8 Effective Study Tips For AsLike many students, I do not have photographic memory and need to study hard and effectively to be successful in school. The study tips listed below has allowed me to ace classes and exams over the years and I hope that they will help my fellow students out there in the world.1. Make the material personally meaningfulWrite your notes in your own words and form various cue associations, such as images and experiences. Rote memorization can only go so far. 2. Use mnemonic devices & diagramsCreate a story involving large chunks of information or items or separate them into acronyms (Be as funny or as crude as you would like). For information that is hard to describe, try drawing diagrams and be creative with color coding to help you visualize. 3. Fill out or make the study guide.If a professor creates a study guide for you, trust me on this and fill it out the best you can. However, if they do not provide one, create your own. This requires you to go through your notes, consolidate them, and organize them in a way that you understand which is very valuable. 4. Test your knowledge.You can ace your exams by strengthening your brain to retain information. By practicing and self-testing, you will know the material by the exam days. Create flashcards, whether tangible or online (e.g. www.quizlet.com), and go over them regularly. They are excellent memory reinforcement tools and sites can offer games to help you stay engaged. Don't stress and cram the night before an exam. However, there is nothing wrong with light refreshers of the material.5. Minimize interferenceIt is very important to know the best environment that you can study in. Do you study better in a noisy or quiet place? Can you focus better with music on? Do you get distracted by the internet and social media?If distracted by sites, use a web extension that can block sites for a certain amount of hours. Also, put away your phone!!6. Find the best way YOU learn.I personally know that I learn better when I read and write the material I want to memorize over and over again. However, for my study buddy, she needs to hear and repeat material out loud as an auditory learner. Find out what your learning style is through the above diagram or the VARK Questionnaire (http://vark-learn.com/). 7. Take breaksOverworking your brain limits absorption of information. Taking breaks helps destress and focus. This does not mean for an hour or more, but take at least 15 minute breaks in between long study sessions. Eat some snacks and drink some water during this time.Another recommendation is using the Pomodoro technique, which is a timer that breaks down productivity into intervals and short breaks. There are various online sites and apps that offer this or something similar. 8. Get a study buddyIt's better to suffer together. Just kidding. Having a friend or classmate to study with can help you split up work or simply provide someone to review the material with. Additionally, they can explain information that you may not understand thoroughly and vice versa.

Game theory is the study of mathematical models of strategic interactions among rational agents.[1] It has applications in all fields of social science, as well as in logic, systems science and computer science. Originally, it addressed two-person zero-sum games, in which each participant's gains or losses are exactly balanced by those of other participants. In the 21st century, game theory applies to a wide range of behavioral relations; it is now an umbrella term for the science of logical decision making in humans, animals, as well as computers.
