The Unified State Exam is an important stage in the life of every modern high school student, because its results directly affect the student's future. It is on the successful passing of the exam that determines which institution of higher education you can enter and, therefore, who you will become in later life. And if you start preparing for the exams in a timely manner, you can train yourself by solving various tasks, and ultimately pass them well. But what if you no longer have the strength to prepare for the exam, how to force yourself to do something? This article is dedicated to this problem.
1. Include your inner understanding that preparing for the exam is what you really need. Be clear about the subjects that you will take. After all, you must clearly realize that what you start doing now will directly affect your future destiny. Of course, at the age of 17-18 it is quite difficult to decide what you want to do for the rest of your life. But, unfortunately, all modern high school students are put in such a tough situation of choice. Therefore, despite all the negative factors, before starting the preparation, try to deal with yourself, understanding your own interests and preferences and realizing that preparing for the exam is the path to the desired future.
2. Make a preparation plan for the subjects you are going to take. To get started, download the codifiers from the FIPI official website, which contain all the information about the tasks and the criteria for their assessment. In addition, in the codifier you can find all the topics that will be covered in the exam. And so that later you will not be faced with the problem of ignorance, include in your plan all the constituent thematic blocks that will be useful to you on a particular exam.
3. Allocate time for practical and theoretical preparation for the exams. As a rule, many high school students, preparing for the exam, usually delve into only the practical part, solving various tasks, and then checking the answers. But in order to do a good practice, you need to rely on broad theoretical knowledge. Therefore, when allocating time for your preparation, in no case miss the theory. So, for example, if you are going to take the exam in literature, then devote some time to the analysis of various literary movements, stages of development of creative thought, artistic techniques and figures, and only then proceed to practical actions.
4. Use the "Pomodoro" technique. Very often, schoolchildren preparing for the exam are faced with the problem of improper distribution of time. As a result, fatigue and unwillingness to continue working quickly appear. With the "Pomodoro" method, you can not only distribute study time to the correct time intervals, but also force yourself to study. This technique involves working hard for 25 minutes and then taking a short break of 5 minutes. And so repeat 4-5 times. The main thing is not to resort to using gadgets between breaks, as this can disorganize you.
5. Work on your discipline. After drawing up a plan and allocating time, all that remains is to conclude a kind of deal with yourself. Make conditions for yourself. Take responsibility for your future. Take a piece of paper and write down what points you want to get on a particular exam, and then hang this sheet in the most prominent place in your room. And in the future, strive to do everything to get closer to the desired result.
