Exams

I have an exam in 12 hours and I haven't studied at all. It's time to look for exam TIPS:

How will my subjects be examined?

Find out as much as you can about the format and content of your exams and how they will be assessed. It's important to know what is required from you so there are no nasty shocks on the day.

---- As far as I know it's going to be a multiple choice exam, i guess it has like 25 questions, +4 for a correct answer -1 for a wrong one. That's basically -5 out of 100 for every wrong answer. (yes, you can get -25)

Where do I look for information about my exams?

blabla
--- Haven't looked for info.

How can I compile the information I have gathered about my exams?

Pull all the information together to build up a table of what you are required to do, as a reference guide. Choose a format that makes sense to you.
--- Nooope, haven't done this either.

How do I plan my programme of preparation and revision?

Make a revision programme in the format that most suits you:
* Don't just read stuff through – do something with it! For example highlight, make bullet pointed lists, matching pairs. --- i read stuff through, takes less time you know?!
* large wallchart calendar --- useless
* week by week timetable or diary --- i reckon hour by hour would be better
* personal organiser or palmtop --- why?
* computer --- sure, for youtube, forums, messenger, games and blogging

Which is the best way to revise?

Everyone is different - we all work at our best in different ways and at different times.
--- i agree. i usually work at my best when i don't work at all.

One day before the examination

Before each exam, make sure you:

• get enough rest and sleep --- 3 hours of sleep are more than enough
  
• active brains need a balanced diet - eat sensibly, don't skip meals or make do with snacks --- mars and coke for the win
  
• check on the starting time and allow plenty of time to get there --- HA. I've done that. Take that EXAM !
  
• check that you have everything you need. Make yourself a checklist. --- all i need is a pen. i'll surely make a checklist
  

In the exam

Everyone gets nervous in exams. blabla --- nope, i don't get nervous in exams, i'm really chill. especially when i don't know anything.
