My study strategy was to use some of the information we learned on memory in studying for my test. Specifically, I was going to connect the information for the test with something meaningful so that I could encode it better into my long-term memory. Most tests I find myself cramming things into my brain and not connecting or putting meaning with any of it then I draw a blank at the test.
For example, with this test when I was studying the vocabulary words I would create a visual in my head. For example, to remember imaginary audience I thought of a girl in the middle of the party that thought all the eyes were on her. Making a visual in my head and also connecting the words somehow to my own life made the information more concrete in my mind. Plus, I also scored better on this test then my last.
