10 Reasons Why You Will Study Hard But Still Score Very Low by Emaxwell(m): 6:21pm On Jan 09, 2018
Have you ever wondered why you study hard but still score low in exams? In fact, sometimes you teach others and they turn out to perform better than you.
If you are in the situation I just described, then you are not alone. As a matter of fact, I passed through such challenge for a very long time. The good news is that I was able to overcome.
It is not fun to study for long hours during the day and continue at nightwithout evidence to show for it. Sometimes you ask yourself the question, what is wrong with me?

The truth of the matter is that, there is no cause without effect. There are so many reasons why you study hard but still score low in exams. I will try to analyze the possible factors responsible for your poor performance in exams and what you should do to get freedom.It is not fun to study for long hours during the day and continue at nightwithout evidence to show for it. Sometimes you ask yourself the question, what is wrong with me?
Top 10 Reasons Why You Study Hard But Still Score Low In Exams
1. You Didn’t Really Understand What You Read
It is one thing to know what you are reading while it is another thing to understand what you have read.
Knowing that you are reading concord under the Use of English doesn’t mean that you fully understand what Concord is all about.
When you study, ensure you get the full idea passed in the topic and are able to reproduce it.

Nothing fights understanding like cramming. Cramming simply means accepting what you have read the way it is with the aim of pouring it out exactly that way.When you study, ensure you get the full idea passed in the topic and are able to reproduce it.
Cramming is like chain reaction. Forgetting one thing you crammed can make you forget every other thing. This will eventually make you score low in the exam.
Another danger in cramming is that any little twist in question will leave you 100% confused. After all, you didn’t research to know the different ways questions can come under the topic.
Instead of cramming, try as much as possible to understand what you have read. There are so many persons who will be willing to make you understand. Don’t cram!

2. You Don’t Practice
Never get to a point where you feel that you know it all. No matter the difficult things you feel you know, there are little things you still don’t know. These little things can sponsor your downfall in exams.
In my number one point above, I explained the danger of cramming and why you should seek to understand what you have read. However, the fact that you understood the topic at a point doesn’t mean that it will stick to your brain forever.
Make it a habit to go over what you have read once in a while. The more you practice, the more knowledge you are exposed to.
One reason why so many candidates find it difficult to recall what they read in the exam hall is that they never revised.
Keep your brain refreshed before the exam so that you can have fresh content in the exam.
Solve as many problems as possible especially when it is a calculation subject.
After some time, go through the questions you have attempted again to see whether you can still solve them. This act will make the topic stick to your brain and you won’t have to struggle in the exam hall.
For non-calculation topics, active reading helps. Pick a paper and pen, try to put down what you can still recall from the topic. Summarize the topic in your own words and write down the key points.
In conclusion, understanding without constant practice can make you score low in exams even when you study hard. Practice makes perfect! Keep learning.
