With school getting back into full swing, it’s no secret that we could all use a little boost in getting back into the daily grind. Studying, memorizing and presenting is not an easy feat for any of us, and memorizing pages of material for those dreaded exams is probably one of the most stressful parts of college.
In an effort to add a little fun to the memorization process, Coca-Cola has launched the Crammer Keeper, a free new online tool that turns notes into catchy tunes…helping you memorize your notes in a new and fun way. Users can select the voice, choose a track genre (hip hop, rock, etc.) and then download the song onto their computers and share with their classmates and friends. Might as well turn your boring notes into a hip hop single, right?
It gets better, though – to help spread the word around the launch of the Crammer Keeper, Coca-Cola is giving away an iPod Touch to one lucky CF reader! Read on for all the details on how to win!

I have to have go to either the design building or a quiet place in the library, have lots of water, music, and some hard candy.
And I rewrite all my notes from class. It helps reinforce what I already wrote down.
I always have someone quiz me after I’ve written all my notes on flash cards. I try to study a few minutes each day instead of the night before a test. It’s less stressful.
My best study tip is to relax. Remember that each exam will not make or break the rest of your life. Try not to stay up too late; don’t stress about it too much or you’ll just waste time. Have a comforting food before the exam and get a great night’s sleep! 🙂
My favorite study tip is figure out what works for you!
I’ve found that the best way for me to study is actually reading out loud and repeating important point to myself. Its really made a difference. Granted I do look crazy sometimes, but hey it’s worth it.
If the teacher gives lecture objectives/study guides, I answer all the questions very thoroughly. Then I reread it when studying for an exam 🙂
Sleep! Get a full night’s sleep before an exam and you’ll do so much better!
I study secluded in my room, with my music all the way turned up (as high as my mom will allow) and just have a private jam sessions. I get rid of all the distracting things like T.V. and especially facebook and try my hardest to focus on the task at hand, which is very difficult for me lol 🙂
reading the material, and making the pages of notes into only a few, then a page, then half a page, until i can memorize easily the contents for an exam.
I hope I win!
If college has taught me one thing is to place is to start studying well before you’re actual quiz/exam. As cliche as it sounds, you’ll be glad when you aren’t exhausted from staying up all night during your final. 🙂
The best thing that works for me is to turn off my wireless connection so that I could study. I like to look at my notes, review them, rewrite my notes, study with a friend, and ask my professors to clarify things that I don’t fully understand.
Review notes every week rather than waiting until just before an exam 🙂
My study tip is to take good notes while in class, then re-read them and get a good night sleep. That’s it!
study 3 nights before the test and pay attention to class then what i have to study is just a review. also not getting stress by a test or a special homework. if you study everything will work out just fine.
I take good notes during class and read them over before a test. I also get 8 hours+ of sleep and have good breakfast before my tests. =)
I always make sure I have some carrots nearby when I’m studying. Crunching on them helps with the stress.
