What are you doing on this site. STOP PROCRASTINATING AND GET BACK TO WORK.

You got an exam on Monday. Turn of the television, turn of the computer. Study for an hour. Take a 30 minute break and then write down everything you rembered studing before your break, do another hour and then have another break.

The breaks help your brain rest, and improves your memory. Writing down what you remember improves your memory. Put your study book under your pillow before you go to sleep. (don't know why but it works for me)

Give yourself at least an hour off a day, to play games/listen to music but no reading. Good luck

You seem to be under a lot of pressure, this must be hard.

You need to relax and settle yourself for the exam on Monday. Get off the internet and revise.

For my exams I wrote out a time table for revision.

You should never revise for more than two hours.

Take regular breaks. If you give yourself a ten minuet break every hour and then an hour break for lunch and dinner it will help. Go over everything you have learnt throughout the day at the end of the evening, this will help it sink in. Write out a page of key words and stick them up on your wall. Look at these and try to remember the information about them. If you don't just go over it again.

Try to think possitivly. If you keep thinking in such negative ways then you will be more likely to bring yourself down.

Remember that everyone will be proud of you no matter what you get in your exams.
