So your midterms are finally around the corner. Are you prepared?
Thinking how you’d survive? We asked some of the senior students and got
the following useful tips.
-Start studying early is
the key to success. That way you will know what topics you don’t
understand fully and you will have time to talk to your professor. Never
start studying a night before. That is going to be a disaster and you
won’t have time to ask for help.
-While studying early
is the key, not to stress too much is another important tip. Complete
your studying bit and then relax before and during the exam. The more
cool-minded you are during the exam, the better it is.
-Get
enough sleep before the exam. There are several examples of students
who went for the exam without sleeping enough and then they slept
through their midterms. Don’t let this happen to you. One night before
the exam you won’t learn much and so it’s better if you get a good night
sleep.
-Get organized and make a schedule to budget
your time. Divide the available time among subjects and it will help you
a lot. If you think there are some tough subjects, allocate more time
to them.
-They are your first midterms so definitely
you should study more. Make sure that you know much more than you need
to. You should know what your teachers look for in the answer sheet. Do
they like to see more content or do they like illustrations with each
answer. The more you know them, the easier it would be to play their
game.
