Any study tips on Finals (comprehensive)

The way I study is: First I pay attention in class. Second, I read the chapters in the book and highlight necessary information. Third, I go back over the highlighted material and write it out in my own words.

This is the easiest way for me. I actually get alot of studying done because for me, once I get the topic in my head I just need a little refresher. When I have these couple of pages of notes I just fold them and put them in my pocket and glance at them when I have a spare minute or two.

I save all of my notes from the semester and just read back over them come finals. The final is usually not hard for me because the information that I put in my own words comes back to me fairly easy.

This is just my way of doing it and it helps me alot.

Hope it helps you in someway!

Thanks so much for your time and sharing. I am a writer..not much of a reader for comprehension...soooo, Instead writing first I am gonna read like you said, then write, then maybe go back and listen, if I have time...thank you so much..b blessed:lol2:

Where are you attending NS? Is there alot of math in second semester?

Good luck!

One thing to keep in mind is that generally people do better on a comprehensive final than they do on a general test. The general test is 50 questions all on related material so you have to know a lot about the subject. A comprehensive final is 100 questions on a lot of different material so you can only need a basic knowledge in each area because there are a lot fewer questions per area.
