It's that time of year again....FINALS!!! These next couple of weeks are some of the most stressful weeks of any college students' semester. There is no need to freak out more than needed though. With a few steps finals week can go from stressful to peaceful (well as peaceful as final week can get.)
Have A Planner
Believe it or not having a planner helps during finals week. Being able to write down everything that is due helps your brain remember. The planner helps you stay organized during finals week which keeps your stress levels down.
Get Your Materials Together 
If you need scantrons or blue books it is smart to get them in advance so that stores don’t run out of them. Also, if you need index cards or other study aids, it is smart to get them in advance as well so you can start studying.
Get Some Sleep
It is important to keep a regulated sleep schedule during exam week so that your brain is well rested for studying and testing. Even though you are going to feel like staying up all night studying is going to help you ace the test, the best thing you can do is study and then get a good night’s sleep.
Study Alone
Yes, studying in a group is fun and definitely something you should do, but it is also important to study alone some so you don’t get distracted and you are making sure that you actually know the material that is going to be on the final.
Avoid Procrastination 
This is not high school finals people. START STUDYING NOW!!! In high school you could pull an all-nighter and sometimes do well on finals, but this is a whole different ball game. Procrastination for the most part will end up hurting you in the long run.
Have The Right Mindset 
One of the biggest things that will help during finals week is keeping a positive mind set. It is important that you don’t doubt yourself. You have made it this far!!!
Good luck with studying and remember... YOU ARE ALMOST DONE!!!!
