How To Study English Textbooks More Quickly And Understanding It For Upcoming Examinations?

First step I always say is surveying the texts. Surveying is the necessary first stage before studying it. It means moving your eyes quickly over:

•  the title

•  headings, illustrations and captions to illustrations (if any)

•  Questions on the text (if any), and perhaps also:

- the first paragraph and the last paragraph.

The quick read. This is to get a clearer overview. If necessary, omit parts that seem difficult and come back to them later.

The slow read. This is the study stage proper; but many students make that mistake of starting with it, or of omitting all others! Make notes either during this stage or after it, but not before you have done you survey and quick read.

Check. Did the notes answer your questions? If not, do another quick read.
