History Exam Prep: Detailed Study Guide Strategies


By Steven Darby - February 5, 2024

Preparing for history exams can be a challenging task, given the depth and breadth of historical content. To avoid this, we recommend a comprehensive approach to creating and using study guides. Students should aim to complete their study guides over 3-4 days, starting at least 2 days before the scheduled assessment.

This extended timeframe allows for a thorough and thoughtful review of the material. When completing the study guide, encourage your child to write detailed answers on lined paper rather than trying to fit everything onto the guide itself. This approach ensures that they provide comprehensive and well-structured responses.

The final 1-2 days before the assessment should be dedicated to quizzing over the study guide topics. Any topics that your child misses during these quizzes should be marked for further review. It's important to prioritize topics marked three or more times, as these are areas where your child may need additional support.
