This study period is roaring along and soon you’ll be thinking exams. If you want to good results, start planning for a happy July break now.
What do you need to do?
- Find out everything you can about how exams are done at UniSA: the practical stuff such as dates, venue, rules etc
- Make sure you know the focus of your exams: see your Course Information guide, lecture notes, past papers, ask in tutorials
- Develop a revision schedule that covers all you need to revise, perhaps twice
- Practice question analysis using past questions: ask tutors or successful past students to review your answers to see that you are answering the set question fully
- Problem solve with others: talking the talk for your course
- Review feedback: read lecturers’ suggestions and apply new strategies
- Feed your brain: keep active and healthy
- Rest well: it nourishes memory and clear thinking
- Set weekly as well as longer term goals
- Meet all your goals and get the grades you want.
Are you using a variety of approaches to learning? Find out if there is an exam prep workshop or resources that might help you.Check for discipline and courses-based helpdesks e.g. the Maths Help Centre at Mawson Lakes..
Success is within your reach if you get organised now!
