Enhance your concentration

Its already late of August. And with the entrance tests on the card, it is difficult for every aspirant to retain concentration in the face of so much pressure and tension. Frequently students find it hard to memorize even after so much of thorough revision. Its not the students, though, who are at fault. Basically, its inability to concentrate that causes these problems. And here's how to combat it:

1. Add up: Well yes! This apparently stupid idea can make a lot of difference.All you need to do is take half hour twice a day at the start of your studies and at the end. During this half hour, write any random number of three or four digits (the bigger the better). And when you have finished writing down 10-15 such pairs at random, try adding them up as fast as you can. Then apply this for subtraction, multiplication and division too. During this, try to do it as fast as you can and think of better full-proof ways of doing these in less cumbersome ways. This,, if practices over a period of one month will make you feel a difference within. If you cannot find new ways of solving, get in touch and I will definitely help you. Also, if you think that you have developed a new style of solving, please feel free to comment, as that will help your fellow aspirants.
2. Mnemonic: This is another very helpful process of memorizing things that you learn by relating them to real-life things. And how to do it? well, I will be talking about that in my next post. So, keep visiting this column for more such tips.........
