It is coming upon us faster then we would like... the ugly, the dreaded, finals week. If your finals week is anything like mine, it is the absolute worst time during the school year. Your up to your eyeballs in work and your motivation is at an all time low. It is a time filled with tears, no sleep, and spending hours fueled by coffee. To make this stressful time in your life a bit more bearable here are some tips below for how to master finals.
1. Start Early
The absolute best thing you can do is start your final preparation early. While this sounds annoying to start early, you will not regret it. Start putting together your guides and gathering everything together. It will save you a lot of tears and time and you wont be getting started at the last minute.
2. Attend the Review Sessions
If I have learned anything, review sessions are actually helpful, it is a time that you can access old tests and get a feel for the material. You can ask questions and really get yourself prepared to study.
3. Make a study schedule or a list
Lists make me feel productive, they allow you to feel super accomplished when you get to cross stuff off. (Honestly, one of the best feelings). Having a study schedule as well will help you prioritize and keep yourself on track!!
4. Do not forget study breaks
You need a little me time during studying!! Make sure to relax and unwind, maybe take a break, watch a show, or just sit and go through your phone!!
5. Get Sleep
Staying up all night is not going to help you. Your brain can not function and you won't be prepared, start early and don't cram. Make sure your getting sleep so you can be at your best!
6. Attend the stress relief events
Because who doesn't want to pet a puppy, like come on.
7. Write things out
The absolute best way for me to study is by writing things out. While people love to type your brain actually processes more by writing and it helps you remember the information.
8. Utilize the white boards
Wherever you are studying, use the white boards, I love writing everything out and then being able to visualize it all. This works especially for writing essays, creating your whole outline, and then you having it all planned in front of you while writing. Whiteboards are also great to practice memorizing!
9. Review your tests or practice questions
I love test questions because it is actually applying the information and being able to practice. Most of the time the questions pay off because it is similar to what is on the exam.
10. Keep calm and don't stress to much!
You have a long summer ahead of you! Keep up the good work... this is the last step!
