What time of day is best to prepare for an exam?

To prepare for a test at an educational institution, it is better to choose morning or evening.

Memory is most “sticky” from 08:00 to 12:00, and also from 17:00 to 20:00.

This is why you should start preparing for the exam almost immediately after waking up.

At lunchtime you should start a break. And after dinner you should resume studying the materials you have taken notes on.

It is important not to stay up late. After eight o'clock in the evening, textbooks and notebooks should be put aside.

It is not worth preparing at night. And especially the night before the exam. It is better to get a good night's sleep.

Earlier we told you how to stop getting nervous over trifles .
