Midterms are right around the corner, which causes students to become stressed. 

While you study, make sure you remember the acronym R.I.P.

The R stands for, remove distractions. Distractions can cause you to lose focus and not retain the material as well. Turn your phone off, put the video games away, and focus on school. 

The I stands for, Interacts with the material. Most teachers hand out study guides for midterms and it is important that you do them. It is also important that you do more than just that. Make sure you look back in the notes, presentations, or books to help refresh your mind on what all was taught this semester.

The P stands for, Pay attention. When in class these few days before exams, make sure you pay attention to any new material or tips your teacher may give you. 

Study hard these next couple days with this tactic and the midterms. Don’t forget R.I.P.
