How Often do you Study ?

[Or3dinator]

step 1: tell people im gonna study

step 2: flip through books

step 3: decide i dont know how to study

step 4: do nothing until the exam and wing it

dont follow my steps they only work if your really lucky
seriously though, i rarely studied because i had no idea how, i'd only study if all my friends got together for a study session thingie XD

haha, very well said sir!

I procrastinate to an absurd level. I'm doing it now.

I've got two essays due tomorrow (they're final papers for uni) and here I am on the Escapist. WTF is wrong with me?!

Join the club, we've got jackets.

And you'd get a free membership card, but we couldn't be bothered to make one.

Well, I've got my first GCSE tomorrow, so in between messing around on the internet and deciding whether or not to go on a bike ride later, I'm studying like mad.
I'm really starting to not like astronomy at the moment.

I've already had 5 GCSE exams (Not including the 4 I did last year):
Music Integrated Assignment
French Speaking
German Speaking
Music Listening and Appraising (1 week before the school revision session for it!)
and Preparation for Working Life (Which is less of an exam and more of an excuse to sleep in school- IT'S SO EASY!)

And next tuesday, I've got English Literature (FUN FUN FUN!)

 

[wolfshrimp]

Second year of university, just sat my exam.
I study only for exams and the occasional essay (i wing them usually)
Find out what books are necessary, find them read them, hope for the best.

Anyway, STUDYING? I'm doing some freelance for my gf's company and im up on here. Work at home is a mistake.

 

[dstryfe]

That would depend what it is you're studying...

Pure Mathematics. BSc.

 

[xChevelle24]

I only study for finals. Other than that, I laugh at people who study, because I do just as good, if not better than most of them on tests/quizzes, and I maintain a 3.6 GPA.

 

[InProgress]

I have 3 test tommorow, and I haven't even opened the books to read it at least once. I usually try to pay attention in class, sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't because I'm really bored. And read it once or twice before the day before the test, and once again in the morning, right before the exam.

 

[Neonbob]

I really don't study. I take enough notes during class that I know most of the stuff already.

 

[Sexual Harassment Panda]

I've never studied just payed attention in class

Seconded. Far more efficient way to learn.

 

[Anachronism]

Not nearly as often as I should. I've got three exams next Wednesday and I'm currently posting here.

 

[Lord George]

Bugger I should be studying now, damn you escapist for distracting meee.

 

[WrongSprite]

Oh, I remember.
English exam tommorow.
I'm off to study.

Me too! English lanugage as-level at 9 am? XD

Sign me up, I'll take two.

 

[monkyvirus]

to be honest crammming REALLY works as long as you really just want to know it for the next day though I urge caution because your brains saturation point might be a little less than what you need for the exam and obviously it wil turn out that the LAST CHAPTER IN THE CAMBRIDGE LATIN COURSE IS YOUR ENTIRE END OF YEAR AND YOU LEARNT THE ALL THE OTHER CHAPTERS RAWR

this was 3 years ago and yes i am still bitter

Ah, I didn't count my oral exams, I've done my French Speaking and my art exam.
Plus next week: Monday morning Maths (non calc), Tuesday morning English Lit, Wednesday afternoon Biology modules 2+3.

 

[Iskenator67]

I never studied a day in my life and still managed to pass all my tests. Guess I just retain knowledge well.

 

[Sparrow]

In secondary? I didn't. It's also mildy surprising that my grades were fairly amazing.

Got you trumped -> exam monday, currently tabbed-out of Starcraft.

 

[sms_117b]

40 minutes on 20 minutes off for at most 5 hours straight a day, especially with exams fast tracking their way to me, sometimes have a hour off after 5 hours and go back to it, like I will in 5 minutes or so

 

[Ancientgamer]

I'm at roughly at an algebra 1 level of maths, and I have an ACT test coming up in 1 month. Could I cram 2 years of mathmatics into my head in 30 days? Perhaps. Will the test results affect my life? Probably. Yet I have absolutely no compulsion to study. And when I try, my mind blanks after about 10 minutes.

Oh, and I'm expected to get a minimum 25 "since it's only my first time." Fun, fun, fun.
