Don't stress so much over finals you overwork yourself.

To Every College Student Stressing Over Finals

In This Article:

It's the time of the semester that every college student hates, finals week. Where you have to memorize every little detail that you learned over the past couple of months and you start to stress yourself over this. Remember these things;

1. Grades don't define you

Everyone is shooting for the best grades possible, but just get the grades you need to get your degree. Do the best you can even if your best is a C

2. Take Care of yourself

Make sure you get the sleep you need, there aren't as many hours in the day as we wish and we all want to study for as long as possible but make sure you take care of your body.

3. Your Parents will still love you

You're pursuing something for yourself and your parents will be proud of you no matter what. Take a break, everyone loves you no matter what

4. Stay healthy

I know, we all want to just go out to eat because it's the easiest and quickest thing to do. But the late night Mcdonalds or Taco Bell run won't be good for your body

5. Getting help isn't a bad thing

Getting help isn't a bad thing, it shows your professor that you care. Even if you get help with a professor or a private tutor, there's nothing wrong with any of it.

6. Get out of the library or bedroom

Don't just sit in the library the whole time. You need to get out of the library and do something for yourself. Don' let finals ruin your time being young.

7. Break is coming

You'll have that break soon so don't overdo yourself during this week. There will always be more semesters and making sure you're okay is worth more than overwhelming your body.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
