20 WCnewsmagazine Exams: how do some students prepare for them? By Gary Takacs + WCnewsmagazine Everyone leams at a different pace and via a different style. Cramming for exams has become somewhat of an art form. Here are some interesting examples of a few WCU students study habits: WG: How do you prepare for exams? Jason Camin (Philosophy and Religion major): | wake up about 5 minutes before class and take it. The night before, | visualize the exam, know that Ill do all right and go to bed early. When | say early, | mean two o'slock. WC: Good take on that Jason. Does thinking like that prove you've been paying attention all semester? Brian Hummel (Music Education major): | watch The Family Guy." WC: That just oozes with possibilities Hummel, really Chris Holcomb (Music Education major): A stiff drink and a prayer. WC: Does Bob Buckner know this Chris? Brian Shanks (Undeclared): | don't. WC: No wonder you're undeclared! The point is, listen to your parents, listen to your professors, but don't listen to those who have been here for eight years. Obviously there's something you know that they don't. Study hard, study well, pay attention and take your vitamins. Study tips for finals By Joshua Farmer * WCnewsmagazine With the fall semester winding down and Christmas around the corner, all college students know that it is about time for the best part of college: EXAMS. Itis a word that strikes fear in the hearts of 4.0 GPA students everywhere. Stress levels become unbearable, and all-nighters become the norm. Most students try to cram as much information as possible into their brains before those dreaded exam days. Exhaustion sets in; students worry about what their parents will | say. In a scenario such as the one above, obviously the students have not utilized any methods for surviving final exams, or any exams for that matter. Exams do not have to be stressful, they do not have to take a toll on physical health and studying for them doesn't have to take up all of your free time. Following a simple agenda for final exams is easy enough; all you really need is the motivation. Below is a list of but a few study habits that will help you ready yourself. Preparation: You need to go to class. If you don't attend class, you will not know what is going on and sometimes, even what day the final exam is on. You should try to stay awake in class. Dor't stay up the entire night beforehand drinking and expect to make great grades. Plan ahead by taking notes. if you must miss class, be sure to have a friend that will help you catch up on those notes. You should always plan ahead; build study sessions around free time you may have during the week. Save the 2artying for the weekend (especially during finals). Studying: When studying, stay away from your room. The computer, phone and various other interesting things are always grounds for procrastination. You should study with someone else whenever possible, but make sure it's not someone who is going to spend that time talking about that hot gir! sitting across from you, or the dude that made a move on you last night. If you must study in your room, block out distracting noises by listening to music through headphones (although music can be distracting, as well). Eat before you start studying. A rumbling stomach will distract you, and many times, the idea of delicious food can be a welcomed diversion. One of the most important study tips is using a highlighter to underscore key points. Outline all major chapters; Asheville Sitters & Nannies Needed! Large group of professional parents need child care. Transportation, child care experience, & CPR/BLS recommended. Sporadic care, part time, full time needed. Call or email Vanessa @ 828-277-6221 vanessab@avicvsurgeons.cot writing down a summary will help you. Writing is closely tied to memory; the more you write, the more you will recall. E@i..err, Finals: The most important part of being ready for final exams is to breathe. They are not the end of the world (unless you have a 0.80 GPA and don't know a thing about the subject matter). Relax, and be optimistic. Begin studying early for the exams. The more you go over the material, the more likely you are to remember it when it comes time to fil in the scantron. Be prepared to study, create a schedule for study sessions and remember to include friends. Many classes don't offer outside review periods, but if you attend class regularly, you will most likely catch one. Be sure to attend the last few days of class because that is when these sessions often ocour. If you are going to miss class, review your highlighted notes and major chapters in your textbook. Pay extra attention to the notes; many professors don't strictly stick to the textbook. Most importantly, get enough sleep! The human brain doesn't function well tired or overloaded; most of us will forget what we study. Never try to stay up studying all night before a final. Much of the information will be lost while the body redirects resources to produce enough energy to stay alert. Finally, when you are done with the exam, breathe again. You won't live long practicing self-asphyxiation. Celebrate: Go to a party or spend an entire day doing nothing. Read a book or go to Asheville. Relax. Rent a ton of movies, and buy a load of junk food and engorge yourself. Purchase that new computer game that you've always wanted, or take the time to catch up with old friends. Call your parents and gush about how well your finals went. Above all else, be relieved you are one step loser to graduating from college. Practicing the right study habits and adequately preparing for tests is an important step in surviving the college experience. It also adds an extra dose of responsibility experience for the real world. Use the study tips above to help in preparation for finals in December. Good luck!
