7.休息片刻
人的大脑一次只能承担有限的工作。因此，每学习一小时，你需要给自己15分钟左右的放松时间。你可以散步、听音乐或者玩一会儿电脑游戏。（你甚至可以打个盹，如果你有信心十五分钟后唤醒自己。）这么做有助于舒缓压力，让全部信息有机会转化为大脑记忆。

8. Put Yourself to the Test
Once you've got your set of flash cards, test yourself with them. If you don't trust yourself not to cheat, give the cards to your parents and have them test you. Don't stop till you've made it through the whole stack without any mistakes. And be sure to bring your flash cards to school with you on the day of the test: you'll be amazed at how much more you can retain if you run through the cards right before your teacher hands out the test packet.

8.测试自己
有了自己的记忆卡，就可以用这些卡片测试自己了。如果认为自己自制力不足，无法排除作弊的可能，那么，可以把卡片交给父母，让他们测试自己。要不断进行测试，直到你能够准确无误地答出每张卡片的内容。此外，考试当天务必携带这些记忆卡：如果你能在发卷之前，复习一遍记忆卡，那么你一定会惊讶，自己竟然记住了这么多要点。

9. Get Some Sleep
You might be tempted to pull an all-nighter, but if you do, you'll only be hurting your chances of getting an A. Get a full 8 hours of sleep so your brain is in good shape on test day.
