Blog #2
Exam #2 was no surprise to me I studied for weeks in advance to make sure I did good and when we got the test pushed back it helped me even more. I didnt take those same steps of preparation for the first test but I learned my lesson and figured out that preperation is key. The vocab is what I studied the hardest for because it was 50% of our test grade and I knew it would be the hardest to get memorized. I made flash cards and studied the words, part of speech and definitions I never felt better prepared. During the test I went through the vocab fairly easy and felt good about my answers. As far as future exams I will most likely take the same approach flashcards are a very efficiant way of studying and its easier for me to get the imformation down they dont take very long to make and makes studying fun for self quizing. Another great study strategie I used was review my notes that I jotted down in class its always good to take efficient notes because they alwasy help with future test or quizes. Be sure to write down anything your thing your professor says is important because its most likely going to be on the test. Advice that I would give my classmates is to study dont study for too long at a time or your going to burn out study steady and at a nice pace so you can get the information instead of just craming. Also give your self some distance from the test to start studying dont wait until the night before because there is no way you can get all of the information needed in one night of going over it. Exam one got the best of me but I have high hopes for the results of exam two.
Thats great advice! You should take your time when it comes to studying!
