Any comment will be helpful...
When it is about studying every student prefers a different way to do it. Some of them like to learn new things or just to review the material alone while others think that they will do better on an exam or test if prepare for it with a group of students. Both ways of studying have their advantages and disadvantages.
Studying alone is maybe more preferred by students, because this allows them to concentrate on what they have to learn and do it in the most efficient way. When we are given a group task at school, I am sure that I would do it much better if a work alone and this is because when a group of people gather to study together, it always happens to start talking on a different theme. Moreover, when you are alone you are able to pay attention on the things you do not know well, while when studying in group takes a lot of time to pass through the whole material, so that everyone understands it.
On the other hand, the students in your study group will help you to correct your mistakes or explain to you that points in the assignment you cannot deal with. You can help the others if they have difficulties with something and this way you would review it. Another good thing about studying with a grout of students is that you can take a look at their notes and include them in your notes – you will be aware of everything you have to learn.
In my view, the best way to prepare for an exam or test is to combine the both ways of studying – firs study the basis alone and then the rest of the lectures in a study group.
Thanks!
