Exam time is usually a period of frenzy in most school. This is a time where students who have been partying hard suddenly become real students. At this time, there's usually a tension so thick, you can slice through it with a knife.
It doesn't have to be this way, though. Exam time can be a time of calm, like the begining of the semester is and you can pass your exams without having to go through so much tension by following any or all of these easy steps
I suggested this to a coursemate and he looked at me like I suddenly grew an extra pair of head. To him, it was inconceivable for him to start studying from the first week of resumption when most students wait till a few weeks to exams to do so.
But getting an early start on your reading, gives you the advantage of assimilating all you're taught at a relaxed pace. You also understand the next lecture better as you'd have a full understanding of what the topic is about.
I don't know whats its called in your school, but we call it tutorials over here.
Tutorials are organized by individuals or a group of individuals who have a better knowledge of a subject.
Most are paid, but the amount is usually really worth the knowledge you receive at the end. It really is a good barter and is also great, if you find it hard to grasp things on the first try.
You can get a few of your coursemates together and have a regular time where you guys treat topics or subjects from your syllabus.
You'll find that each person will bring his perspective to the tabke, giving you a broader knowledge if the topics.
