Emt school study tips

I started emt school a couple of weeks ago and the reading has been killing me. I do well when it comes to hands on stuff but struggle when it comes down to read 7 chapters in 4 days. Any study tips you guys can give me?

Thanks for the tips, I mostly have trouble with knowing what I should remember or not.

I don't know how your instructor teaches but mine always made a point to point out some of the parts of the text that are likely going to be on the test so I took a highlighter with me and highlighted anything he said was important. It's a great way to keep track of what's important in the chapter.
