Regarding tests. Make sure you set aside time in your schedule in ADVANCE to prepare for them. Go over the material once, twice, three times, then quiz yourself. Did you miss anything? That's ok, because you gave yourself plenty of time to PREPARE. So, take what you missed and work on that, then review again, then quiz yourself again. Is it an essay test? Think of what was pertinent in the class-this is likely to be what you will be asked about (unless your prof gave you study questions, lucky!). Start writing the answers to questions with information you took notes on, or is in your book. Put it away for a day. Then, take your answers, and form them into your own words. Say it aloud, as if you are having a conversation with someone about the subject. Oh, and please PLEASE get a good night's rest before the test. Its hard to think and perform when you are feeling.....soooooooo sleeeeeeeeeeeeepyyyyyyyyZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. And eat something decent beforehand. No, a pack of gummy bears will not suffice. Stay calm, the answers will come to you if you are well-prepared.
