Exams you take in college are really different compared to high school. Answering the questions doesn’t revolve upon the terms discussed but also applying it to hypothetical situations that are deemed common to the people’s experience.
As hard as it looks, the questions are actually simple and only needs simple and direct answers.
Basing from experience, these are ways on how you can prepare for the exam:
always listen in class
This comes as the most basic but the most critical in preparing for the exam. By listening in discussions, you are able to maximize the knowledge you gained which helps to lessen your time for reviewing in the future.
expect the unexpected
Even the smallest details become an answer to hard questions. Try to remember the terms especially when they are highlighted during discussions. Every word or phrase is important.
apply not memorize
The exam does not follow the typical questions of memorized terms; it is more on application. When you memorize, try to apply the idea or concept that you’ve learned. In that way, you’ll be able to understand the concepts discussed.
rest to de-stress
Don’t stress yourself. Take time to rest every time you recall the ideas discussed. A mind in a calm state can help you to remember further.
motivate yourself
Always think that you can pass it. By motivating yourself, you are driving your mind to recall more and it helps you to not worry about the exam.
Taking the exams can really be a stressful experience, but with a positive thinking and a clear sense of mind, you will surely ace your exams.
