[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=6) First, prepare before you come by reading what you’ll study tomorrow.

[0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=11) Second, pay attention while you’re there.

[0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=14) And take notes on what you’ve read. If the professor explains it and finishes the topic, thank God.

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=20) Otherwise, don’t forget to ask them about anything you didn’t understand during class.

[0:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=25) The third thing—and few people do this— is to read over what you studied today today.

[0:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=30) Don’t put it off until the next lecture.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=32) Don’t study it, read it today so the information is firmly retained.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=36) That way, your knowledge and understanding will stay with you.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=40) If you don’t follow this method, you might pass, and you might even excel.

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=45) But the knowledge won’t stay with you. Believe me, from experience, knowledge doesn’t stay for more than a month.

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=51) I mean, at most, the knowledge you learned lasts a month.

[0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/45KjDsNRaQaa/en/three-study-habits-to-retain-what-you-learn?t=53) But with these three methods, God willing, it will stay with you.
