How not to let the Books Scare you
A student understands very well what books can
do, right from being helpful to being scary. I am not exaggerating but books
can be really tricky and they can send your mind spinning in all directions.
Well here’s the trick: you want to master the trade, you got to learn the art.
So here we’ll be talking about the art of not letting the books get on your
head..
1. Find a Pattern
There’s always a certain
way in which every process runs. Be it the theory of magnetism or the never
ending formulas of organic chemistry or maybe the intestinal systems of frog,
cow or an earthworm, in every process, there is a pattern. Find the pattern and
follow it. Trust me; you won’t have to cram up the steps then. You’ll just know
how one thing happens after another.
2. Rewrite
The language that is used
by books can be pretty confusing and downright horrifying sometimes. Not all
books use
student friendly language. So what you need to do is rewrite the content. Whichever topic you pick up, understand it first (I am taking the liberty of assuming here that you’ll have some help in understanding the topics by your teachers or seniors.) After you have understood it, try writing it in your own words. Keep it simple so that you can understand it later without any help. This way, you understand things clearly and writing is also a good practice for memorizing things. And finally you have in hand your own Entrance Notes.

3. Don't be a Parrot
Now I am absolutely aware
of the long, troubling, hard to pronounce words that you have to fix in your
memory because technical education my friend, depends completely on the
technical terminology. So what I’d advice is that you pick up a topic, write
the related terminology on a card and their meanings on the other side of the
card. Now rehearse those words along with the meaning. After a few times, you’d
automatically pick up the words and their meanings.
4. Divide
Books are divided into
chapters or units. When you see a book as a group of chapters, it doesn’t sound
horrifying. Pick up a chapter, read through, make notes, understand, solve
questions and then pick up another chapter.
5. Don't rely completely on Books
Different books might
contain different information on the same topic and each one will claim to be a
100% true. That confuses students. So don’t just depend on books for the
information. If there is a doubt and you find contradicting answers in different
books, take help from your teachers, use the internet. Use verified sources and
then decide your answer. Remember, Books are not always correct.
