Come test day, do you forget everything you studied?

It took a couple of days and weeks to prepare for the next mid-term exam (which is true, it will take a few days), this is the final examination time. If there are some reliable predictions to succeed, the time to concentrate on those seamless memos is certain. In other words, a combination of full attendance rate and 1 mile flash card will be sufficient to get A. First question and prosperity - please look at white. No, it is different from liquid corrector. So that your brain can match the hollow nature of rock whiteboard

Why is this happening? You have a self-stated "memorized memory", and it took several hours to pour the right material. When you are satisfied with emphasizing your notes on the sofa, you will feel relaxed and attentive. Now, at Evans' very narrow desk or crowded Dwinelle Lecture Hall, your level of anxiety is higher

When anxiety spreads, "white noise" occurs. This actually prevents you from retaining or memorizing previously learned information. If your brain is a radio station, music is information on the success of the test. Anxiety is static and interferes with normal frequency. In order to gain a little scientific knowledge, stress signals the hypothalamic area of ​​the brain to cause hormones and neural signals. It releases adrenaline, causing sweating in the palm, rise in heart rate, shortness of breath.

If you are all adrenaline addicts, we doubt if you can solve the problem by taking a test. Most people who encounter this gap during the test feel very irritated. Because you feel depressed and embarrassed, then you will feel depressed. It prevents all these reactions from doing their best together

Please make sure your heart does not begin to crush before the exam day. Yes, typical sleep sleep, healthy breakfast and exercise are very important, but your mental condition also requires some love

"This class has a bad curve - I can not overcome these other crazy Berkeley geniuses."

There is no need to worry about procrastination. "I probably should not go to the Kip, other classmates may be in the main stack.

Please do not exaggerate the influence of this event. "If it does not work it will affect my main GPA and it will affect the possibilities that it will go to Northwestern University."

Keep remembering yourself that your self-worth depends on more than 50 multiple-choice questions and 2 paper answers. Even if this middle term becomes 30% of your grade, please make sure that your anxiety does not occupy 100% of your brain.

This absurd process is basically the same for university and kindergarten. Follow it as it won our A and Smileys sticker. Do not ask about learning, research, and learning reasons. Please pass the test and forget about all what you have learned now. Another meaningless test will be done within a few weeks. I am afraid of school's creativity research as I am a product of this educational Play-Doh factory. I think 95% of the second graders are creative, but when I graduated from high school the statistics were completely reversed, I did not think that only 5% was creative. And that happens when creativity is needed more than ever!

When the test comes, it is supposed to be actually tested. Yes, probably you thought you remember everything, unless you noticed Einstein's relativity theory or forgotten the second king of Cush during the exam. Learning almost always prevents this from happening. Choose your free night, find a good way to learn, work hard to take notes. Learning with friends is extremely useful as long as you can work and do tasks without needing side tracking as long as you can complete the task. Ask your teacher whether you can come to lunch when you get sick all day. That woman was absent from all day. Is it really 15 minutes of your life to kill you? Maybe not! In addition to being able to accomplish the task, there is little time to help the teacher solve the problem and understand it, so it returns to its original state. Also, your sense of responsibility is high, so you win the respect of the teacher!
