You seem to have a renewed confidence, and I'm happy for you. Keep it up! (y)

I always found that listening to some AC/DC on the way to the exam improved my performance. ;)

Hmm, some hype music might help. Me and a friend of mine that is also in the class are gonna wake up early enough to meet prior to the test and just discuss some topics. I've found (just during this class) that it helps. Kinda gets my brain in the right mode. If I just roll out of bed and go, I'm useless. This is entirely thanks to him putting off any kind of studying until about an hour before the test. Nothing sucks more than going into a test where you know the shit but can't think straight, and you're like FUCK I KNOW THIS WHATS THE ANSWER

Actually something is worse. I managed to sleep late once on the day of a final. The teacher's policy was that once someone finished the exam and left the room, no one else could start the exam (cause they could call you and give you answers or something?), anyway, the exam was at 8, I woke up at about 8:15, and ran probably faster than I've ever run, got the the room at about 8:20, and was told in front of the class of 100+ students that I couldn't take it. She let me go to her office the next day to do an essay type test, so I didn't get a 0, still though, I didn't do well. I have no idea how I didn't wake up when my alarm went off. So now I have this fear before every test that I won't wake up. Now I don't have to worry so much, cause my friend is in the suite next to mine, and worst case scenario, if he doesn't hear from me and calls and I don't pick up because my phone mysteriously dies for some reason, he can bang on the door and wake up everyone in the suite.

for my extremely difficult chem exam last semester, i met with a partner in the class and we crammed like crazy for a good 5 hours before the final. we had both made flash cards and had been studying for the week coming up to it, but there was so much damned material that it was overwhelming. i'm so glad i did, though - i know that i did great on that test, and even though i didn't get the best grade in that class that last test saved me. i felt really confident going into it, and i know it was because of studying with a pal.

Sounds like insanity to me. Other people are the very root of misinformation and dubious answers. I'd avoid talking about it with anyone, but then that's me.

Well, we help each other out. When one of us is right and the other is wrong, the correct one straightens out the wrong one, and backs it up with some evidence from the book/notes/interwebs. I don't think we've ever come to a wrong conclusion on anything. I tend to "get" the stuff better, and I find that explaining something to someone really helps me understand it better.

Plus, this is a topic we both love and could talk about at great length. I'm pretty nonfunctional early in the morning, and getting excited about a topic I really like prior to the test helps my brain boot up.

I'm too excited to sleep. Not nervous. Excited. That's new. I guess I should just lay down and maybe I'll get relaxed.

I drank a pot of coffee at IHOP but that was like 6 hours ago so I'm pretty sure that's unrelated to my inability to sleep.

Studying/cramming right before an test/exam does not really help me. I either know it or I don't. Sometimes I will look over key things very quickly but thats it.


IHOP? Thats were all the crazies go.

Well it's like, all the info was in my head already, buried somewhere. I just needed to bring it back to the surface. We went over the old tests, and as it turns out, well the review was cummulative and contained some new info, and pretty much all the old info, the questions were the exact same as the previous tests. So looking over the tests the night before was very helpful. It was like "oh, look it's that question about Jim's rare brain disorder that leads to the degeneration of his macrocellular pathways. The answer is, whichever answer has to do with hand-eye coordination. Question about Jim's rare brain disorder, *check*.

I should get my final grade in 2-3 days.
