Finals start exactly two weeks from today. Which means that I will not have a social life for two weeks. I remember in high school, my freshman year my mom had all of us study 60 hours a week for two weeks to prepare for finals. Those were the worst two weeks of my life each year. Now do not get me wrong I always got A's on my finals so I stopped complaining after my freshman year, but it was hard to stay focused on the exams when that meant that school breaks were close. I have never study so often in college so I am not exactly worried about these exams, but I am still going to study a ton. I also suggest to everyone that they do not cram for their finals. Cramming has been found to actually make you do worse on an exam, so just study for 60 minutes for each class each day and you will be fine. If you do the numbers, that is 5 hours a day for seven days equals 35 hours a week, for two weeks is 70 hours of studying. Its not that bad.... okay its bad but it will be so worth it.
Enjoy studying and leave a comment on what study habits have worked for you.
Just remember, after all of that studying you get 4 weeks off for winter break:)
