I still vividly remember in my third year in high school when I missed a lot of classes in math. When the mid-exam was coming up I panicked because I practically knew nothing about the subject! Fortunately, I had two friends who were willing to help me out. They had already formed a “study group” and I joined their group. We discussed academic problems together and shared class notes. I could ask them any question I had about the class.
Apart from academics, we always went to the school STUDY ROOM together. And when any team member was faced with difficulties or felt frustrated, other members would cheer him/her up. After two hectic yet highly rewarding weeks, I passed the examination with good scores!
I think this phenomenon of forming “Study Groups” depends on different situations. In fact, some study groups do not play a vital role on developing study skills and knowledge because members cannot focus on their lecture. why? As when friends come together, they often chat with each other or share pics rather than study. However, when we decided to form a study group, we have strong determination to do well in study part. So our parents did not worry about us
