How to study

[Padawan787]

So, I have exams coming up in just over a month, and basically i'm fucked, I haven't really worked very much. Unfortunately I failed my first semester so I need to pass my second semester in order to resit the first...

Does anyone have any study tips?

Obviously, spending less time here would be a good place to start!

Consider getting yourself a tutor or a study buddy from class (provided they too benefit from the extra studying). There is also a chance that your instructor can offer you some help.

It may help you to go the Library for a fixed amount of time, to force yourself away from distractions. If that's not possible, you can make mini-promises to yourself and pose incentives. Ex. "I have to study for another 20 minutes straight without distraction, but then I can go to the PE Gym for 10 minutes."

Ultimately, you need a plan, you need accurate study materials (textbooks, good notes from class, etc.), and you need time to review. Good luck Padawan787.

Talking of films! Put yourself in a role, dress up, be a scholar...

Or a comic strip, like the one above!! YEA!! School is FFFFuuUUUUUuuNNNnnNNN!!
