How to prepare for a test/ how to study

Hey lovelies, I have midterms coming up so figured I would post how I prep for them! Preparing to study before a test can feel like a daugnting task. As someone who HATES testing and is really bad at it, here are a few ways I prepare myself for an exam.

⭐️Start a week to 4 days before! Dont delay it, crunching info doesnt work

⭐️Use textbook summary Pages: these are a great way to see key info that you can put into a study guide or look at what you might need to review

⭐️Use textbook extra questions: these will save you in terms of knowing how questions could be asked and knowing how to solve a question. STEM majors need to use these pages especially since the content is largely based on these questions

⭐️Khan Academy is great to learn concepts the textbook is not good at explaining! Also helps with additional problems and how to solve them

⭐️LibreTexts gives reviews of material and extra problems to go over. Great to add to study sheets

⭐️Summary Blob sheets are you rewriting key points and problems to help you improve your understanding of material. This can be done how you want it!

⭐️Study Materials and Practice Exams from professors are a great way to learn what they are expecting you to know and for you to learn how the test will be laid out!

There are so many other things you can use but specifically for physics and chemistry classes, these are my life savers!

Study hard!

... Read morePreparing for exams can often feel overwhelming, but with the right strategies, you can approach your studies with confidence. Create a study plan starting at least a week in advance to avoid last-minute cramming. Utilize textbook summaries and additional resources such as Khan Academy and LibreTexts to deepen your understanding of complex topics. It's crucial, especially for courses in physics and chemistry, to practice with extra questions available from your textbooks. This will help you familiarize yourself with the types of questions that may appear on your exams. Incorporating study materials and practice exams provided by your professors can give you insight into their expectations. Furthermore, consider using summary blobs—rewriting key concepts and problems in your own words can reinforce your comprehension. Break your study sessions into manageable segments, such as a 3-hour plan with specific periods for studying and breaks. Lastly, don't underestimate the power of group studies and discussions with peers; they can provide different perspectives and enhance your learning experience. By following these tips, you'll set yourself up for success on exam day!
