How many of yall wait till the last minute to study for an exam? (College Students)
- Thread starter Tenkamenin

Sad to say but I am a procrastinator I'll wait till that last minute to study for an exam. Sometimes I study early and sometimes I don't. What really made my procrastination worse was when I did not study for my Art History final until the final days like 3 hours before the test and I got an "A" on the final. And from then on I think I can do that shit all the time. It's gonna kill me someday.
And if you were a procastinator but quit doing it, how did you do it? Was the road to recovery easy? I swear this shit is like a disease.

*raises hand*
all the fuckin' time....and i do the same for papers and projects too
first semester this past year....10 page research paper with at least 15 cited sources....started that paper at 8pm the night before it was due.....stayed up all night..did that shit..got an A....but i don't suggest it for everyone...i'm a very good writer, so to me, it wasn't all that big of a deal....
...i don't have much motivation to study really hard until its the night before..i don't know why...but i do pay attention very well in class, and i have a very good memory, so what i know for my tests is basically what i heard from lecture in class...i just brush up on my notes once or twice as a refresher right before the test...
...but like i said, this can't work for everybody

Yea what i usually do is never go 2 class and then 2 days be4 the test get notes from some1 then copy them in2 my own andwriting ( only way i can learn) and the the night be4 the test all i do is study, it usually works 4 me but now that im taking alot of upper div classes i need like 2 extra days instead of just 1
Most tests the only reason i study is to refresh the shit in my mind. If its not there it won't be in time for the test, i'm not tryin to learn a bunch of shit if i already missed it. So i usually do my studying the night before or the day of the test so that the info is fresh in my head.
Papers on the other hand i procrastinate on because i procrastinate. It’s a bitch. 99% of the time i write them the night before they are due. Finals papers have in the past and probably will in the future keep me up all night long working on them. But i usually do good on them that’s the thing. I hardly get a bad grade on a paper so it doesn't really discourage me from doing it the night before. Sometimes its to the point that i stay up real late and get so damn tired that i just write the paper by hand and go to sleep just so that i get some and then wake up a bit early and type the paper up and hand it in. Fuck all that proof reading and shit like that. Run a spell check and hit print.

Not a college student, but i got cents.
Studying is supposed to be a last minute thing other wise you'll just forget everything anyway. Plus the shit that your studying for should be things you already learned in the first place, but just needs to be refreshed. But then again, I never could say 4.0
