Exam advise

I need u'r advise! Here's the deal: it's 10.30pm here in Belgium, and i have my macro-economics exam tomorrow morning (9am). Unfortunately i still have 150 pages to go in my 700p course. What should i do?

a) Get a good night's rest, and ignore the remaining pages
b) Skip sleeping altogether and rely on cafeine and wodka to get me through?
c) Waste my time on the .org complaining about 2morrow's xam?

Thnx for the help!
thumbs up!

Skip the rest and get some sleep. You won't remember what you read in this state anyway.

Or maybe give it a 20 minute skim. Then get up early and skim it again.

I say do C and then (get this) write the answers on your hand, so you can just refer to them during your exam!

...It's called "cheating." shhh

Dude, stick to the key points!!! THE KEY POINTS!!



Seriously, though, dude... you totally shouldn't be here. Go study. Nap. Study a bit more. You retain more from small chunks of study than one long cram session. Good luck.

When I revised 4 exams, I re-wrote all my notes from lectures in2 a note pad, and basically made additional notes from these.

My advice would b...

a)

As 4 economics...I found that kinda difficult but understood it in the end smile. So what r u studying 4?. I graduated last year smile my degree is in Business Management with Marketing.

As 4 exams...I had 2 sit 3-hour exams, but it never worried me.
