Study Skills Worksheet: Part 2 Test
Study tip (Recall, space, mix): Find the topic: recall, spacing, mixing, notes, flashcards, focus or rest. Techniques that make you retrieve, space and mix usually beat re-reading, cramming and blocks. For sums: review day = day + gap; Pomodoro rounds = minutes ÷ 30; focus minutes = rounds × 25.
