Good morning everybody! This week marks the end of classes for the spring semester. As such, professors have assigned their last papers and presentations and/or have written their final exams. While finals week can be a stressful time, I definitely enjoy the flexibility of scheduling present. To me, the looser schedule feels like extra free time. To take advantage of the time, I usually establish daily schedules. In terms of studying and completing the work, I make sure to alternate among subjects while also taking breaks for recreational activities. I also try to study in different locations, both indoors and outdoors. In doing all of this, I find that exam week is really not that stressful. In the end, the week is my opportunity to show what I have learned this semester.
How about everyone out there? How do you handle exam week? If you could give another student any exam week tips, what would you suggest?
