All About the Emergency Preparation for the Exam

As a rule, the exam in the university comes as something unexpected - and knowledge of a particular subject must be dumped in one head in a few weeks or days, otherwise you can not wait for the coveted diploma. How to do it?

1. Choose sources of information.

If you stayed on books, do not take everything you see on this topic. Limit your school textbook, book or manual, which is recommended by university teachers.

Excellent training opportunities for audio or video courses - visual images are remembered the easiest.

If you have to pass the exam on exact sciences, focus on formulas and their decoding, because it is not enough to remember or peep the formula - you need to be able to use it and explain its meaning.

As a source of information you can use people - a tutor or acquaintances who have good knowledge of the issues you are interested in. But remember that knowing and being able to explain are completely different things, that is why familiar consultants do not always justify their hopes, and the services of tutors are quite expensive. Therefore, teach yourself - and go to the tutor, having prepared in advance a list of incomprehensible questions. So you will use your time and money much more efficiently.

2. Independent work.

First, do not delay preparations for the last moment.

Secondly, break the material into several topics and after each arrange yourself small breaks.

Third, if you have the opportunity to prepare with someone, remember that collective training only makes sense when the companion owns the information better than you do. Also be afraid to be distracted by conversations!

3. Do not just read it, but remember it!

Cramming can fail, and it takes too much time. So look for the opportunity to memorize the material with the help of associations. For example, dates are worth remembering, associating them with known events that occurred at the same time. Formulas can be read - suddenly a funny word will turn out? Or make a proposal out of them. Do not bother with definitions - try to understand the essence of the phenomenon or process and explain what is self-conscious in your own words.

Determine the type of your memory. If you have more visual memory - read, if the motor - write the same cheat sheet. The main thing is to resist the temptation and leave them at home. Be sure to scroll through the books or notes before going to bed - when you go to sleep and wake up, information is stored in memory best.

4. If you are unlucky with a ticket ...

Not everything is lost! Carefully study the ticket - suddenly about something similar you read while preparing? Maybe something will tell the neighbor on the desk. Or maybe the teacher will agree to let you pull another ticket. True, the estimate will decrease, but for sure in this case the five is no longer of principle. In the end, a lot depends on the mood of the members of the examination board. Suddenly lucky? Do not hang your nose ahead of time.

5. On a good impression.

To the teacher was loyal to you, come to the exam neatly dressed, be as collected and confident as possible. But do not take soothing - it can play a cruel joke. If you will be calmer with some kind of talisman - take it with you.

Choose a ticket without long meditations - you still will not be able to find the desired one, but the teacher will assess your doubts as a weak knowledge of the subject.

Demonstrate the passion for the subject. The teacher will be pleased.

Do not sit down on the last desk. It is there - in places where careless students are hiding, all attention is directed to the teacher, and the attitude towards students who sit down here during the exam is prejudiced.

Do not wait for your time to run out - get yourself an answer. Teachers are much more loyal to these students and the chances of obtaining a diploma are much higher.
