Finals are this week. Whats a good way to study. Or at least for bio..Last time I studied six hours and I got a 76..um..there is obviously something wrong. Can anybody help?
BlahBlahBlah answered Sunday June 4 2006, 1:28 am: bio is realllly hard (trust me...i hate that class) but its important that when you are studying you dont overload it. Take a break every so often because you want your brain to rest and you dont want to get board because then you are just reading notes, but you arent comprehending the information

Like copy them then read them outloud to youself then copy them over again and read then outloud again. It works really good.

You don't have to study 2 hours straight. You can break it up if you want. For example, 30 minutes in the morning, 30 minutes at lunch time, 30 minutes at dinner time, and 30 minutes before you go to bed. Normally when you study for long periods of time it causes you to get tired easily, so make sure you pace yourself. [ 4everMyself2's advice column | Ask 4everMyself2 A Question ]
GC07 answered Saturday June 3 2006, 3:53 pm: I took my bio final last week so I know where you are coming from. I would recommend that you study by making flashcards or writing/typing out a study guide with the answers. It sometimes helps to write things out/down and it gets in your head faster. Also, don't stress out. It'll make you freak and no matter how well you know the stuff, you probably won't do too well. So my suggestion is to just take a deep breath, study for an hour or so and you'll be fine. Also, be optomistic and have faith in yourself! With that, you can do anything. I hope I helped and let me know how it goes! Good luck! You'll do great! - GC07 [ GC07's advice column | Ask GC07 A Question ]

The key is you do not want to stress yourself. Study 1 hour a night, and only 1 hour, I find is the best way. You'll have 5 or 6 hours at the end, but it will not be crammed.
I advise just reading over the stuff once, and then go back to it and add another section on the next night. Trying to memorize it is painful.
