7 Tips For This Finals Season
Her Campus

There was tailgate szn, basketball szn, formal szn...now it's finals szn! Finals can be rough and getting yourself to study can be hard, so here are some helpful study tips.

1. Sleep

Sometimes amidst all the studying, you forget to get some Z's. Sufficient sleep can help you focus and make your time spent studying more worthwhile.

2. Study>going out

Put that Natty Lite down; the party is over...grades should always come first. Missing a few social gatherings that you probably won't remember anyways will be well worth it. Focus on your education right now and celebrate when finals are over.

3. Don't skip meals

You need calories to focus. If you're spending the day in the library, it is easy to forget to eat. Pack nutritious snacks or bring lunch to-go!

4. Think positively

You got this! Have some confidence! Positive self-talk can help you succeed.

5. Flashcards & review sheets

Quizlet allows you to make helpful online flashcards and review games...this can be an alternative to conserve paper!

6. Study groups

These are a great way to review with multiple perspectives. Also, if you have any questions, someone in the group may know the answer!

7. Put that phone down

It's only going to distract you. Each time that phone buzzes, you'll lose focus.

Good luck! Hope these tips help!

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
