1. Get out of your room and find a quiet place. 

Sure, it can be nice trying to study in the comfort of your room, but there are too many distractions that come with it. Not to mention most overtired college students fall asleep right when they get into their bed. Pack up your bag and head to the library or other common study areas.

2. Don't stress yourself out too much. 

You will survive, and if you stress yourself out too much you will spend more time worrying then studying. Organize your schoolwork so you are not completely overloaded any one day.

3. Put down the phone. 

It's easy to think you will just quickly check your phone, maybe quickly respond to a quit text and then put your phone down. You are wrong. One glance at your phone will turn into 30 minutes scrolling through memes on Instagram. Put your phone away or even shut it off if you have to.

4. Take breaks, but not too many or for too long. 

Definitely take breaks to clear your mind so you can focus as much as possible, but taking too many breaks will cause you too loose focus. You don't want to fail your final because you were taking too many breaks.

5. Go to your professor's office hours!!!!

I cannot stress this enough. Professors take extra time during finals week and schedule more office hours for questions about the final. They do this so you will come. Take advantage of this! Professors want to see you do well and not fail and they will be willing to answer all of your questions.

6. Study with others. 

This might not work for everybody, but for some classes it really helps me to bounce concepts off of my classmates. I have also found that the most beneficial part of my studying, is helping other people. You really understand concepts after you are able to explain it with others.
