yes, i hate those people. I actually tried to study and write out, and re-write the notes. And still doesn't get half as good. It makes me so frustrated.

I don't think its the amount of studying that you put in correlates with how well you do in class. I know this from personal experience--I studied for maybe 2 hours max for my psychology final, and this guy studied for at least 3 days. I got 84%, he got 77%. Another case: Chem final. I studied the day before...by skimming notes, and making sure that I know how to use the formulas given on the sheet. One of my friend studied for a week. I got 85%, he got 75%. What matters is the amount of understanding you take from whatever course you are studying.

Of course it is all very frustrating to see somehow who looks like they barely studied, and makes minimal effort in class get a better mark than you...but I find that usually those "lazy" people are the one who understands the material, and can reason and think logically on tests.
