Studying Advice?
 
I'm studying for finals, which are hard and take a large amount of time, so does anyone happen to have studying advice for me? Thanks.

Review all your old tests, and redo the questions you found tricky/got wrong.

Personally, I hardly study at all. I cram everything right before the tests - just minutes before. I usually do worse if I study everything ahead of time. For me at least, if I pay attention in class, I won't need a whole lot of studying. So my suggestion is cram everything in 5 minutes before the test.

This has only worked for me once.. for history class.

I wouldn't risk it for your finals though honestly.. especially if there is a LOT you need to memorize (not simply conceptual ideas)

Pig lmao! I guess just read back over everything(go through the stuff you find harder/hate), the best teachers I had in school/college were the one's that repeated everything a million times, at the time I hated it but thats how I got it stuck in my head.

Listening to rap music while going through cases. This is extremly useful for me since I never read books which go in depth about what works in whatever way etc., but I'm having only law-classes though. What subjects do you have? Learning differs all the time, not only what suits you the best but what the subject is about aswell.

Flashcards.

If your classes provide review guides, use them.

I have many subjects that I must take finals for, counting as Biology, History, World Language, etc.

The only subject I study for when it comes to tests and finals, is math.
Everything else, I remember.

One way I used to study for math is to ask the teacher to reteach me the things I need to know weeks before the finals. Take as much notes as you can while he's reteaching you. Follow his problems and adapt as quickly as you can. Soon, you'll know the formula by heart.

I barely study... But the couple of days before I'll go through my notebooks and kind of just review a bit... I don't know it doesn't make sense but it works for me

Testing was never an issue for me. The only tests I failed in my entire time in schooling are the ones where I didn't read the stuff the test was on. If the content of the test was covered in class, there was no problem with me acing it.

write **** down, it will help you memorize it

do plenty of practice questions if there's math involved

if you study right before you go to sleep everyday dont do anything else before going to sleep but study it will retain better
