who is taking finals right now ?

[MuGGsy]

This is my first semester at college and I never believed how bad finals would be. I had been thinking about taking a week off from lifting and I have no option but to do so now, I've calculated 30 hours in the library in the last 3 days! Anybody have any tips for getting through this week ? I'm going insane :(

Just study your ass off bro. Being this is your first semester it will be rough but when the end of second semester rolls around you will know what to expect and it won't be as demanding on you. Hell by the end of my four years I was so used to taking finals that had no problems in keeping with my routines. Also during this time of cramming and studying take in plenty of good carbs as your brain will need them and stay away from those energy gimmicks as they will keep you up high for a little while but bring you down hard.

I feel you bro. I am going through it now as well. It is a bitch, but hopefully we do well and it will all be worth it.

The best advice to give you, Is to study really hard, don't stress so much on the exam cause you will be all worked up and its much harder to concentrate. Also get lots of rest so that you wont be tired on the day of the exam.

Good luck!

my last one is tomorrow and it is going to be in acct man I hate that class.

Key is to just remember that "most" of the time everything works out. And if you have kept a steady grade in the course most of the time well atleast for me the proffesors are a little leniant on the final

Depends on what kind of finals you have. I have a biochem and zoology and org.II finals this week. For them there is no cramming. I just go over it all untill it's all memorized. God that shit gets tough. Best of luck to you. Also get some sleep. I like to study on a regimen that way I don't get side tracked so much and I can rest a little. Also avoid group studying unless your group is truly motivated. Most that i have been in just get side tracked.

First semester of college is always really tough. Staying in routine for ur workout is important too, but a week of not working out isnt going to hurt you. You the rest of ur life to work out, ur freshmen first semester finals only happen once!

By the way, just a thought is that professors try to weed out freshmen. Very important to get passed first year. In the chemistry department we have one old professor that brags about how many he can get to drop.
