Honestly--FLASHCARDS. Also, if you could write down the stuff you need to know, it might help your memory. For some reason, just the act of writing something helps a lot.

Don't panic, the more you worry about absorbing the info the more you'll forget when it comes to test time.

First tip.....get off RF.

Take a short nap in between study periods and be sure to eat some protein tonight. Get a good night's sleep.

You have a final on Saturday. How rude!

I second flashcards, they work very well. Don't watch TV or listen to loud music while you study. Get plenty of rest, and maybe have someone quiz you (if that is possible). Studying with another person is helpful, too.

;-)

Bon chance.

This is how I used to study. I would get different colour highlighters. As I read through a chapter, I would highlight important parts with one colour, the very important parts with another colour and if there are definitions that I needed to memorize, I would use yet another colour. After I finish read the chapter, I would browse throught the chapter and look at the stuff I highlighted. If you are limited for time, perhaps you can just browse the very important stuff afterwards....for me it seemed to help if I did this on the morning of the exam itself. Also if you have to memorize a list of things, use the first letter of each word and try to form a word in your mind, that way you'll remember the first letter of every word in the list. The word can be a silly word - not a real word because this is not always possible, just something that when you pronounce it and spell it, you can easily remember your list. Whenever I got desperate, I tried to remember the page and how it looked, the way the words were, to see if I can remember it easily. Think positively, know that you can accomplish what you set out to do. The mind is very powerful and can help us actualize what we think about strongly.

Do drugs.

Load up on as much DMT and ayahuasca as possible and simply download everything you need to know from the Collective Unconscious.

Failing that, boff your professor if he/she is of the opposite sex. And possibly even if of the same sex...

If you just can't bring yourself to bother, content yourself that "not-knowing" is the Divine state of Man.

peace,
GOD.
