Yup, Just wondering if we got some ppl who don't study for finals and have sucky grades, people who do study and have sucky grades and people who don't study and have good grades. Wierd poll I know but at least work with it...

Edit: now with 33% more poll!
 
Minimal study, usually the day before.
I have an exam on Friday with a fair bit to learn (mostly names of studies - Psychology_, and I haven't really put any effort into it, except in lesson times.
 
I never studied in college. I found it a lot more helpful to learn the material at the time the professor was teaching it, rather than writing notes.
 
im a worrywart, so i study AS MUCH as i can . . .

finals next week (wed-fri)

hardcore studying starts THURSDAY

H.S. finals = teh suxorz

edit: i do take notes and pay attention, so studying is more like reviewing . . .
 
I hardly ever study for finals since it just a composite of tests given during the semester. I do study for those tests and usually do well.

Well, I'm out of school now. Degree in EE from Clarkson Uiversity. Not the hardest program, but not a caskwalk either.

In short. If you don't knwo the materials a day before the test, you are already screwed. Do all the homework ON YOUR OWN. When I did this (not always), all I usually did the night before a test was skim everything over to make sure iknow it all. Clean up any loose ends and not worry abouth te test. just go to it and do well on it.

Oh, and your poll sucks because it doesn't let me put in the opinion I have on studying which I'm sure ALOT of people agree with.
 
when it comes for midterms/finals...

i only spend 2 hours before the test going over the material. i end up doing pretty well in the class...

if i try to study the entire day... 6 hours are wasted watching tv and the other 2 are spend studying.
