Final exams can be a hectic, stressful and unpleasant time but it doesn't have to be. Here are some of my tips to a smooth Exam Season.
- Plan Ahead | Come up with a schedule, divide your time accordingly and know what courses will need extra attention. When you find that you are getting distracted..TAKE A BREAK!
- Get Organized | Get everything you need, don't wait until you have started studying to find notes, important pages and lecture material. Organize all your study material ahead of time so that you can just focus on that days study goals.
- Be Involved | Don't just sit there reading your notes over and over again. Try to find different ways to learn or review the material- make a study sheet, take an online quiz, or watch a video explaining the topics.
- Stop Procrastinating | Don't start studying the night before! I REPEAT, do not CRAM. I can assure you that the stress, no sleep and minimum reviewing will all be a recipe for disaster.
- Stress Release | Exam Season shouldn't be about countless hours of studying, no sleep and caffeine overdose. You need to stay healthy and active by eating regularly, exercising and sleeping at least 8 hours- your body will thank you for it and your studying will benefit from it.
Remember: A GPA does not define who you are or will be, you are much more than a number. As long as, you give it your all and aim for the stars then you will be successful in everything that you do.
Good Luck!
