Help with studying efficiently! I have a test tomorrow that I thought I had next week and I have not studied.?

Question

I have 4 chapters to read for the final exam and I only read half of one so far. I am running out of time. Any study strategies? How can I put so much information in my head before tomorrow @ 10 PM? HELP PLEASE! Should I ask for half of my day off tomorrow? I really can't leave all day from work because I have a seminar in the morning. Thanks

Answer 1

Read and take notes. Try and skim the chapters and pull out the main points and themes, then write them down and how they relate to one another.

Answer 2

Only you should know your best way to study. Whether it's taking notes, or using notecards.

I do know one thing, you're probably not getting anything done by posting a question on here...hit the books.

Answer 3

1.Find people's name and compare and contrast their ideas.

2.Read the first and last paragraph, get an idea first.

3.If you have no idea about the chapter even if you finished step 2, skim the paragraphs between the first and last para..

4.Take notes of step 1 2 3.

5.Before go to bed or after get up, read your notes and try to remember the main idea of these 4 chapters.

It depends on you whether you should take day off or not, if you feel nervous easily about exams, I suggest you take off and concentrate on exams tomorrow.
