The semester is almost over and now comes my least favorite part of being back in the University setting - Finals! It is so difficult for me to get motivated to prepare for my finals. I am not sure why. I think it is because I get myself all worked up about trying to figure out what will be on the exam that I mentally just shut down. I get so frustrated knowing that all the work that I have put into my classes throughout the semester all comes down to the results of one exam. I have contemplated taking a new approach this semester - not studying for the exams. Somehow I do not think that will be a sucessful technique, but it sounds good.
Good luck to everyone!
Mark, you're not the only one on this one. I'm a horrible test taker. I study so hard and when I get the test I forget everything. One time a professor told us to eat a piece of spearmint candy while taking a test. Supposedly, the spearmint stimulates parts of the brain. Sounds bogus right? Maybe we should try it! lol.... Good luck on your finals!
