What is the best way to study for a history quiz?

Read all the course material, read it again, and highlight major points, write them down (I used to make an outline to study from) and answer the study questions usually found in the back of the chapter. A great way to study is with a study partner. Another method of study is to make a tape of your reading and you can listen to that while driving.

Good luck. I am sure others will post what methods they found helpful.

There are many ways depending on what would work out for you. You can make flashcards, read the material over and over again, or ask an adult to explain what its talking about and make them almost act it out (especially if you're visual).
