while your studying, make up questions and test yourself at the end so you remember what you just studied.

i learn by taking notes, and therefore i have become amazing at taking notes. usually i'll take all my tests and get them together for that subject and just take notes in ms word (because i type faster than i write).

math is though though, i study with my dad, we go through the book and do problems and look at my tests.

well i personally don't like to study a few days before a test. i like to study right before it. i've always had trouble memorizing...lol sometimes i would like sing what i'm memorizing and make it into a song or rhyme it with other words. whistling.gif i've tried studying with music but idk sometimes i can't concentrate very well and sometimes i can. _unsure.gif i would also write down notes on a piece of paper, that helps me too. good luck wink.gif

Me.. I cram that last week. I sleep when i get home. and i study all night til morning. That's my strategy. =/ reading the text and your notes helps. and rewriting your notes and adding to them really helps me. but thats me... ionno about you guys.

It depends on the test. For some tests, I'll make flash cards (usually for vocab words though.) For math, I don't really study, just review formulas and how to use them. For other subjects, I'll often read and re-read the material and do some practice problems.

Basically, you pay attention in class for the whole year and you don't need to study for finals. Easy huh?

when you take the finals...dont get nervous because then it makes you forget things...get mad instead. it works.

Go into that room thinking, "Man, I'm gonna fu$King rape this test." If you don't get a higher score than you expected, I'll start worrying about you. Of course, you might just have too high standards.

another good peice of advise would be not to get sick during finals. =]
Wont be able ot think straight. loose focus and concentration. all that good stuff that'll make you fail. =/

I was sick once for my finals... it was so horrible. I had to cough every half minute and sneeze every min... so horrible.

i would say for me...i memorize stuff...i read it over and over and write it down..statistics say you should read an amount of info atleast thrice to learn it

Take gums and listen to music while studying. Dont think this is useless, its worth it.

I like flashcards. They always work for me. They're really efficient, but kind of annoying to make. You could first take notes and if you have nothing else to do, make your notes into flash cards. If you could get a review sheet from your teacher, that'd be excellent. biggrin.gif

Haha I know I'm late but what I do is I get my notes and type them up or write all of them in another notebook.
