Need At Least 50% In My Exam To Pass A Particular Course - Tumblr Posts

A survival guide for finals week

It's coming up unfortunately and it's probably the most stressful week you'll have in the semester and for some reason, every time it comes around it seems like the universe has it out for you. Here are some tips that have helped me and hopefully can help you!!! Feel free to add on!

Carry water with you everywhere. Nervous? Drink. Tired? Drink. Angry? Drink. Get hydrated and drink lots of water.

Don't cram. Get GOOD sleep. No all-nighters. Please

Start studying now. When the week comes, you'll be too stressed to actually study effectively

Take walks. When you get stressed and overwhelmed, take a walk! Get out of your room and head and just walk until you feel better (please be safe though)

Caffeine

Eat something healthy. Not everything has to be healthy. But some foods like salmon, broccoli, whatever. Nourish your body and it'll nourish you back

Save some money so you can take the week off.

Have a relaxing outlet that doesn't take energy. Maybe a cozy game? Latte art?

Play with some animals. This is scientifically proven to reduce stress btw so it's for health reasons

Your finals don't always happen when your classes happen so make sure you triple check dates and times

Feel some sunshine

Get a good Playlist that makes you happy

Try some yoga or something to distract yourself when you wanna cry

Learn how to harvest salt from your tears

If it's a cumulative final, go through past exams and quizzes and stuff. Those tend to cover the "important" material and will likely show up

Make cute study sheets! I know if my notes look boring I CAN'T study

Naps! Bonus if they're with animals

Try to get a study group together and study and chill

Believe in yourself! You got this!!!! You're better than you think and I have full faith in you and your abilities!

If you love the class, study because you love it!

If you hate the class, study so you never have to see that fucking teacher and listen to that stupid class ever again in your entire life.

Make yourself happy, cute drinks and happy, cute meals

Celebrate at the end. Please. You deserve it

Don't let it consume your every waking moment. It's just a test. Just another test

Tell yourself how amazing you are. You're doing something not everyone even gets the chance to. That's super awesome!!!

Eat some cake

Gum and crunchy veggies are both great stress busters
