What are good study techniques for these subjects?

Q. Exams are this week, and I need to study but I need some good study techniques for these subjects:

1. Spanish (Vocab and grammer)
2. Health (Mainly definitions, but also procedures)
3. English (Vocab, Mythological words, stories)
4. History (Dates, events, important people...)

I've already started flashcards for Spanish, but if you could give me any other studying techniques that would be awesome. Thanks!

A. For history and health look at your criteria or rubrics and make notes for it, read over the notes again and again until it is stuck in your head. For spanish use flash cards and the notes technique. For english read over your note book and text book and try to really learn the techniques because that is the most important thing in english


What is the definition of republican and the definition of democrat?
Q. Look up these definitions in a dictionary... Which definition really means what you are?

A. 1. republican adj. (\ri-�p�-bli-k�n\)-
An individual who believes that the white male Christian God should be the only object of worship on the planet, that power and wealth should remain in the hands of 1% of the world's population while the remaining 99% starve, that health care should be privatized so the poor can't afford basic medication, that a rape victim living on welfare should be forced to care for a baby she didn't even ask for, and that America is the only real country on Earth while all those other countries they read about are just fakes invented by communists...oh wait, it's terrorists now, isn't it?

2 democrat (d�m'�-kr�t')-
1. One belonging to the United States Democratic Party

2. Tend to believe that government should come to the aid the most disadvantaged in society (see Unemployment Insurance, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security). We don't bring it up much, but it's what Jesus taught.

3. Belive in the separation of church and state, on the off-chance that not everyone in America is a Southern Baptist.

4. Doesn't believe that industries have the unfettered right to dump carcinogens into our water supplies. Also believe in protecting public health and worker safety.

5. Believe in strengthening public education, rather than gutting it with vouchers.

6. Belive in civil liberties and equal rights for all people, regardless of gender, race, or sexual orientation; a Democratic President pushed through the Civil Rights Act even though it meant losing half of his party. That half, comprising mostly of racist whites, now overwhelmingly votes Republican.

7. Most have actually read the 9th amendment. Can also spell "amendment."

8. Represent broadest spectrum of the American public: women, blacks, Latinos, gays, Jews, seculars, immigrants, union workers, and yes, also straight middle-class white male Protestants like me.

What would be a social definition of the socioeconomically disadvantaged group?
Q. I just need to know 2 definitions for an assignment.
One is a legal definition and the other is a social.
I know what my legal would be and thats basically a definition off google, but what could i write for a social definition? i can't steer away from legal definition :/ thanks so much

A. Legal: That falls below the stated Poverty Level for a single person or family.

Social: Who has income above the stated Poverty Level but who�s predicament (health problems, no insurance, disability, spouse has lost job, etc) has put them into a disadvantaged situation.
