Study for Multiple Exams

Study for Multiple Exams

Part 1

How I study for multiple exams, deal with multiple projects:  Really it is my time management that explained above. If I see I have multiple things due or to study for all at the same time I spread out my time beforehand. For example, if I have a test Monday and 2 tests Tuesday then I will study for my Monday Test Thursday and part of Friday. Start studying for my next test on the second half of Friday and part of Saturday, then my second Tuesday test on Saturday as well and part of Sunday. Then Sunday night I can review for my Monday rest because I already studied for it. When that test is over I can begin reviewing for the others tests.

My overall studying method: I try to break it up over several days or at least two. I get bogged down if I try to pull an all nighter.

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: If I received a low grade o probably knew it was coming because I didn’t prepare property or I probably knew it was coming because I didn’t prepare properly or I didn’t use the right study habit for that class . I usually try to go over do differently on the next exam or what they suggest I do for studying for the next exam.

You can succeed every day

Part 1

My overall study method: I break up studying over several days and over the course of the evening and day. Cramming never works for me so I try not to do it. I will have longer sessions on night before big test, but I never stay up much later than normal before tests. I know what if I take the test tired the next day I will not do as well as if I was rested.

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade:  I usually look over the test or paper to see what I did that the teacher did not want. Basically, I do not stress out about grades that much because for me they are not worth getting really upset about. I do well because I know that I know the material. However, if I do get a bad grade, or one lower that I expected, I make sure that the surprise by the questions.
