Study Study Study!

Even though finals are a couple of weeks away, I have already started to study. It helps me to start early so when the week of finals comes up I'm not trying to cram all of my studying into that week. During all this studying I have a 10 page paper to write and a project to do as well. What I do when I study is I will tell myself if I study for an hour then I will be able to do something I want for an hour. This helps me because it motivates me to work because I know afterwards I can do whatever I want. I go back and forth doing this for a couple of hours until I get tired. Also, if my tests consists of a lot of vocabulary then I will make note cards. This helps me memorize them because I'm having to write them down and then I go over them about a million times. Something else that helps me is making my own study guide after I've already read through the chapter. This helps me because I'm having to reread the information and then typing it up helps me to memorize the information. Usually the textbook has a website that you can use to take practice tests and do other helpful things such as flash cards.


These are just a few things that have helped me make A's throughout the semester! I hope everyone is having a good week and getting ready for finals!
