Finals are here!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You have worked hard this whole semester \u2013 when it\u2019s all over \u2013 give yourself a pat on the back or a mental high five for finishing the Fall 20 semester!<\/h3>\n

Here are some tips and tricks from our staff to help you:<\/p>\n

\"individial<\/p>\n

Giselle: Make a calendar or sticky notes for all of your final projects, be aware of your current grades and confirm the date and time of your final exam if you have one.<\/p>\n

Leslie: Make sure you take breaks \u2013 but don\u2019t go down the phone\/app\/Netflix rabbit hole for too long.\u00a0 Besides, you will have all of the holiday break to get caught up on your favorites.<\/p>\n

Jeanine: Find a new location to study at. somewhere you wouldn’t typically go to study at throughout the semester.<\/p>\n

Cat: Flashcards or Quizlet is the best way to remember things.<\/p>\n

Anna: Make sure to let your body sleep enough!<\/p>\n

Kathlyne: Make sure to eat properly and not just snacks. Food helps the brain!<\/p>\n

Ryan: Have someone else quiz you on content, and go back to review missed questions. that way there\u2019s no giving into peaking at the answers.<\/p>\n

Sabrina: Take breaks to relax in between sessions to avoid burn out.<\/p>\n

Eryn: Study in different environments like the library, coffee shops, outside or with friends.<\/p>\n

Ethan: Create study groups. Incorporate studying for finals in everyday activities with friends.<\/p>\n

Bre: Don’t listen to music that you will get distracted by!<\/p>\n

Riley: Coffee!! & a quiet place to focus.<\/p>\n

Gavin: I like to think about the rule of diminishing returns so if you feel yourself not making any progress that means it\u2019s time for a break.<\/p>\n

Courtney: Chew gum while studying and then chew the same type of gum during the test.<\/p>\n

Kaelen: The best thing you can do with studying is just put your textbook on your phone and read it anytime you have any free time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
