Finals are finally upon us, and it is that time of year when the weather drops, the library is overcapacity, and everyone seems to contract strep. Here are a few tips on how to stay somewhat happy and healthy during hell week.
1. Bundle Up!
It's no fun if you get sick a few days before your most important final. Where your most comfy sweatshirt and fuzzy socks to keep warm and comfy during the all-nighter your about to pull.
2. Eat Healthy!
I know that Ramen may taste better, and it takes 2 seconds to make, but eating some greens will go a long way to keep you healthy and your brain working.
3. Take Naps!
More likely than not you are going to be reteaching yourself everything the professor was supposed to teach you during the semester. So make sure to take naps to give you enough energy to keep going. Napping for no more than 45 minutes will leave you feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the next few hours. 
4. Do NOT Cram the Night Before!
Classes end early for a reason, do not slack off and neglect your studying. For maximum information retention it is best to start periodically studying a week before your final.
5. Lastly, Stay Motivated!
We are all working towards getting the best grades possible in our class, so stay motivated by giving yourself a reward every time you finish a study guide, or finish reading a chapter! This will keep you from burning out and help you move forward!
