Checklist for exam preparation


* Think of exams as a chance to find out how well you have mastered the concepts you have been studying.

* Know when your exams are scheduled, what they will cover and whether questions will be objective or essay.

* Complete your reading and homework as they are assigned so you don’t end up cramming at the last minute.

* Identify the material you need to study and then schedule time to review it over several days.

* Review each chapter / topic systematically, starting with the oldest information first.

* Use the headings and subheadings in lecture notes and textbook chapters to organize information and predict exam questions.

* Make study guides, charts, outlines, summary sheets, etc., to condense material and show the relationships of ideas.

* Review actively by asking yourself questions and then answering them in your own words.

* Keep reviewing concepts until you understand them well enough to explain them to someone else.
