Since I’m not taking real courses this quarter, I don’t have to go through the trauma and constant state of panic that usually accompany my week of finals. But, for all the folks out organizing and going to school full time? First, I got yo back! And then here are some tips to help you get through finals week.
- don’t do it alone: study with other people, even if they’re not studying the same thing. this doesn’t work for everyone, but it may be what’s missing from your study skill set
- teach it to someone: if you can tell someone about your subject and they understand, then you’re grasping the material well. teach it to a lot of someones.
- eat properly: ixnay on the hipscay! drink a lot of water, eat lotsa nuts (mmm protein!), eat a proper breakfast, if only for this one week.
- move, get out the way!: don’t stay in the same place for too long. jump rope. chase a raccoon. tackle your RA. whatever. just move!
- study hard and study well
hope this helps!
peace :D
