Exam passing tips

If in doubt, send an email to your tutors or professor!

I used to be so afraid to email them, but they honestly help so much - it's what they are there for.

Find a writing TA in your school.

if its a math or science final, memorize all the key formulas and laws every day for a week. If you get those down, its a plug and chug fest.

my senior six exams we have been doing our mocks but still no gd results.kayondo

Some of you guys will recall me from my essays I posted here. Hopefully I will be studying postgraduate(law) at an overseas university in 2010. I have 5 subjects to pass and I am planning to study part time ( 1 subject in 1st year and the rest in 2nd year) It may not sound rational but I think I should concentrate on this one subject first year so I can improve my English at the same time and get used to the terms etc. I just took a look at exam papers of previous years. I understand the question and I know what the answer should be. However, I do not know how to write it properly on the answer sheet. Do you think I can improve this skill during my study ? Of course it is up to me but you guys know a lot about these study issues. How should I plan my study ?

Thanks

How you perform in your exam also depends on the atmosphere around you.
firstly go to the examination hall atleast 20 min earlier and don't concentrate much on your surroundings.
Close your eyes and meditate if possible ....
When the question paper is given to you , start concentrating completely on the paper and one question at a time and if you come across any question which you don't know , attempt it at the last.ALL THE BEST!!!

check out some learning strategies. Meaning what can aid in your learning, remembering or making connections. There are a few things that you need to realise. That is if you are learning of facts, concepts, procedures or problem-solving. Each of these requires different learning style. Before you can differentiate concepts, you need to what that makes up the concept and before you know how to do a procedure, you must know the concepts involved. Some learning strategies you can try are mnemonics, concept/mind map, flowcharts. Good luck!

Study hard and be papered!! That should do it. Oh by the way have confident in your self.

More details please? But in general I have always found studying with friends has helped more than cramming on my own. So start early :)

Heyy, for me what works is that I leave the content heavy subjects till the very end, like those with a lot of memory work such as biology and do the math and physics first. You dont forget the theory of how to do questions that fast, but information is forgotten more easily, so it might be useful to leave the info heavy ones till later and cram in short term memory

Good luck! I'm taking As too so thats what im doing

Study frequently and often. Make up your own questions as you study and review them at your pace. Asking the instructor for sample tests can give you some insight into how they phrase their questions.

What works best for me is after I finish a test, I do the test backwards. Read the answer and then try to guess the question.

well, i think as long as you willing to pay, you could pass it!

Be ORAGANIZED with your notes and test materials. Just reading your notes over and over and over in your head would not improve your memorization as much as reading your notes out loud or writing would do.

Buy the book!! The English AP exam does not require you to be a genius, but practice! Going over annotation skills, literature terms, and it is also very useful to go to the college boards website and look their scoring scale, this gave me a good insight on what they wanted! Good sleep and breakfast are a must. Good luck!

thanks thats rely encouraging

Don't get panic with th exam.
keep watch on time so as to finish it on time.
