Memorize notes/slides

2025-02-25 17:37:40 UTC

Night before, sometimes even the class before. Looking at slides or notes and pacing around my room trying to see how much I can recall

2025-02-25 17:37:41 UTC

Support course materials

2025-02-25 17:37:43 UTC

I would just memorize this without trying to understand it the night before

2025-02-25 17:37:46 UTC

Studied 2 days prior by rewriting my notes and passively reviewing old quizzes

2025-02-25 17:37:48 UTC

Practice problems

2025-02-25 17:37:54 UTC

Study like 20 minutes each night only up to around 4 days before test

2025-02-25 17:37:59 UTC

I studied directly off of the notes that the teacher provided us with a few days before the test.

2025-02-25 17:38:01 UTC

Looked over notes and homework, usually crammed

2025-02-25 17:38:02 UTC

met one on one with teachers in difficult classes since we had small class sizes

2025-02-25 17:38:10 UTC

Beginning to study much earlier and trying to really understand the fundamentals and underlying concepts

2025-02-25 17:38:13 UTC

Memorizing the night before or the day of

2025-02-25 17:38:16 UTC

Re-reading the textbook and taking notes

2025-02-25 17:38:21 UTC

Reading notes over the night before

2025-02-25 17:38:23 UTC

Days of studying. reading the textbook and lecture notes and rewriting all of it into a new study guide for the exam. Then studying that by doing practice questions

2025-02-25 17:38:24 UTC

Re do problem sets, going over slides, doing textbook problems. Going over slides to support myself if I have questions and or going to office hours or study center

2025-02-25 17:38:28 UTC

studied with other students and studied more ahead of time

2025-02-25 17:38:43 UTC

Doing practice problems and going to office hours

2025-02-25 17:38:45 UTC

Making a schedule of content to study and how long I want to spend on it, do practice problems for each and go to office hours if needed

2025-02-25 17:38:46 UTC

Begin studying a week in advance and by actively reviewing and practicing material

2025-02-25 17:38:47 UTC

Went through notes and redid homework problems.

2025-02-25 17:38:50 UTC

Reviewed slides, did practice problems, looked at what I needed more help on and focused on those areas more

2025-02-25 17:39:05 UTC

Synthesizing my notes from lecture, and referring to the textbook if something really wasn't clear. Also, doing practice problems/prelims.

2025-02-25 17:39:11 UTC

I go to office hours to ask questions about the material and spend my time trying to understand and learn the material rather than just learning for a test.

2025-02-25 17:39:18 UTC

Honestly I feel that the exams are in the same way, but my approach changed a lot. At college I realized that I can get a good score only if I really understand the contents. Only memorizing or doing the practice problems is far less than enough.

2025-02-25 17:39:32 UTC
