6) Study Hard For Standardized Tests

The SAT, ACT, GMAT, and other standardized tests are a key part of college admission, studying hard is necessary if you want to get good scores.Â
Know what’s on the test: There will be certain topics that show up again and again on these exams. So it’s important to study those topics so that they come naturally when you take the test.Â
A study by content area:Â It may seem like you need to know everything about every subject just to do well on an exam, but this isn’t true at all.Â
You can focus your studying efforts by studying just one or two content areas at a time instead of trying to cover everything all at once.Â
For example, if your goal is getting better grades in math classes then spend more time studying math than other subjects even though they may be on the exam too.
