Exams are looming above my head, and shit is going down. Really fast. It's like, just 4 days to go. I know I can complete it within that time, I've got the concepts very clear. It's just, I'm not able to concentrate at all!
P.S. I've tried all the meditative stuff, etc etc.
Yeah, dude, lots of people want prizes without doing any work. Most normal thing ever.
I mean i never studied and did good till school forced homework down my throat. Just remember nothing matters, we all die, and do your best. That always worked for me.
same here i was the lazy student who always got good grades until my school decided to take assignments and homework to a whole new level that's when i began to fail,fuck them
basically know the withdraw period if you think you are going to fail a class. It probably will not be an issue. I always had an issue with procrastination where I would wait til everything was due and do it on the last possible day. My thoughts are if you know the material you should be fine, but be on the safe side.
Red bull fueled cram sessions for 3 hours a day for a week help. A day before exams you need to get 8hours of sleep.
Make you some flashcards to help you study. Another good idea would be to read the chapters you are studying out loud and record yourself doing it, then play it back.
I think your feelings are normal. I wish I could win millions in the lottery without lifting a finger. I also wish I could win millions in the lottery, and remain entirely anonymous. Call me crazy.
WOW. I appreciate you giving your best advice. I've never used flashcards. Who knows, they might work!
P.S. There's some hope for crazy so-called-brilliant students like me 😂
Aww i feel bad that i didn't give you any real advice because you seem like a nice person & exams can be super overwhelming.
I had the same problem as you. I was able to scoot by without studying at all in highschool & still make great grades, so when the time came where i needed to establish study habits, i sucked at it.
The best trick i figured out was to determine which style of learning suited me the best. Google "7 styles of learning."
Some people really find it easy to remember things they transcribe; others have to say it out loud. For me, i learn best by "teaching;" when i can explain something to someone else, then i have it down.
If you figure out the style that best suits you, you can streamline your studying habits & improve your ability to retain information.
Anyways, good luck on your exams!!
If its something you have to memorize the recordig and playing back thing works great
Thank you so much, and you're welcome as well! 🤓
I hope you are your tests!
