Academic Skills Specialist Dr. Lindsay Heggie카지노 게임 컬렉션s Top Tips for Students for Exam Prep
- Make a plan.
Follow the Student Academic Success Services exam study schedule to give yourself some structure and balance as you study for several exams concurrently. This will ensure you give each exam the time it requires and avoid cramming. - Include self-testing and review in every study session.
Start each study block with a brief review of what you studied last time(s). End each session with 15-20 minutes of self-testing (e.g., redoing homework questions or examples from a lecture; completing questions that you got from previous exams or made yourself).
