Find a way of studying that works for you. Not everyone can stay awake long enough to get through a text book (myself included) Try witting flash cards, a song, or coming up with gestures to help you remember definitions.

My guess is it is the memorization you are struggling with? I didn’t learn how to study until college (memorization is what really sucked for me).

What I did is made flash cards at night and carried them everywhere w/ me and went through them constantly (on the bus, while walking between classes, at lunch, down time at work, etc). The more repetition the better it will become (sometimes it seems like 100s of iterations!).

Make sure to keep your cards sorted by chapter for awhile (and they can be combined for mid-terms/finals).

Well if you are a Christian then i suggest Joshua 1:8-9. “It works I’ve tried.”
