El study and programming It is a fairly personalized topic that depends above all on the habits already created by the student. The student, especially the university student or the one who is preparing an examination, has been studying for years and little by little he has been creating those habits in which he is more comfortable when studying (time, place, dedication, etc. ).
With this article, therefore, we do not want to break with those habits already created by you, and much less if following them you are doing great in your studies, ... What we want is to tell you, according to scientific studies, when and what is the best time of day for study.
The hours before sleeping are the best for studying
It has been scientifically proven that the hours before sleep are the best for studying. But why? The study says exactly, that when we incorporate new information to our already acquired knowledge and then we sleep, it facilitates the implantation of these new concepts and knowledge in long-term memory.
That is, the dream, in addition to having an important repairing effect for our body providing enough energy to cope with a new day, makes the next morning, we have the freshest and clearest ideas if we have studied the hours before it.
Therefore, when do we advise you to study? Well, it depends on the amount of time you have before the exam:
- If you have many days before the exam. It will not matter much when it is time to study, since it is also proven that memory will become overloaded as we incorporate new terms and concepts every day.
- If you have little time and only have one day left to study, Our advice is that you study during the morning / afternoon and before going to sleep, just in those two or three hours before, do a brief review of what you studied during the day. In this way we ensure that those concepts remain better in our memory.
Still, good luck if you've only had one day to study!
