If you know that you have a math test or a Russian language test in the morning, prepare for the test in the evening.
According to research, studying in the evening is much more effective than any other time period.
This conclusion was reached by employees of the Department of Neurology, Psychology and Behavior at the University of Leicester.
According to them, studying mathematics before going to bed leads to better memorization.
The study confirmed a previous hypothesis that studying complex multiplication problems (e.g. 8 x 23 = 184) before bed helps improve memory skills.
During the experiment, scientists analyzed a group of 77 participants.
The volunteers studied in the evening. After the lesson, there was a nap, which replaced the morning lesson.
There was a gap of approximately 10.5 hours between the study session and testing.
In addition, participants were required to take part in a morning class, after which they were required to take a test in the evening (also 10.5 hours later).
The results showed that participants performed better on the test if they studied before bed.
