FINALS!!

Its that time of the year again...FINALS. For many students, finals can be one of
the most stressful times of the year, so, to help battle finals stress, here are my tips to help you stay stress-free..or at least sane through finals.
1. Don't procrastinate. Start studying early; use those extra ten minutes that you use to check instagram to review some of your notes. Trust me, the time adds up. You'l feel less worried about knowing the information, cause you've been reviewing, and wont have to cram nearly as much. This rule also applies to projects. Get them done ahead. That way you won't have to spend valuable study time on them and you have enough time to go back and fix them if you need too. Its a double win.
2. Set up a study date with a friend. Sometimes, having another person can aide your studying since they can quiz you or explain things in a better way. Plus, its always nice to spend time with a friend :), espically when your stressed.
3. Use online resources. I'm the type of person who gets extremely bored of just reviewing notes, so I often search online for what i'm studying and use one of those resources instead. Many teachers have their own quizzes too, so feel free to browse teacher website too.
4. Finally, on the day of your finals, eat a breakfast and brings snacks. Nothings worse then being grouchy and hungry. Along with this, be sure to get sleep the time before; sleep gives your brain time to sort through all the information its learned.
Good Luck!!
