Broken Dagger!!! Southern Swagger!!!

basically the only thing I do in preparation for an exam is basically look over my notes once and go to sleep haha

I mean I just took my finals and I actually did pretty good considering how much I studied

nothing lower than a B!

 

there was some research done actually that if you cram before you fall asleep, you're more likely to remember the materials. Your mind recites them or some shit

 & also in my psychology class we discussed how if you link new material to something already in your long term memory, its a SHITLOAD easier to remember. The brain is a crazy thing.

I like to listen to Biffy Clyro (Mainly the new album) :] I love their music and they dont distract me like other bands do haha

I make a plan, not like completely but - I'll study for an hour or two, then check what's new online or go on a walk with doggie. Sports help, you don't have to run like mad, maybe just a walk, some basketball withfriends - it helps when there are a lot of things and you can let frustration out in 'normal' way :)

But I always think: It'll soon be over. Get your ass studying. 

Wow, exams. I don't miss those.

I always used to watch Breakfast at Tiffany's right before I went to bed. If I didn't get my mind off of the exam, I wouldn't be able to sleep because of my nerves. So I watched my favourite movie at like 7, then went to bed early and got a good sleep. Rest is the key. 

Apparently you should exercise just before you start studying. Something about more oxygen to the brain and makes it easier to comprehend/remember? I dunno I heard that years ago, never tested the theory.
I basically just kept re-reading everything.

I make tons of notes as it's been proven that your brain absorbs more, as opposed to just reading over books. I also highlight EVERYTHING useful in pretty colours, as I'm a very visual learner so it really helps me.

Yeah I listen to music when I study and I often rewrite my notes prettier (I have quick handwriting for in class but its not pretty... >< I'm weird but its harder to read) and highlight keypoints like Lowri with highlighters. I always eat well before a test and try to sleep well. ;)

Good luck!

Music always helps me study.... also i usually wake up early the morning of the exam and go over key concepts, i dunno why but that usually helps me
