THIS PICTURE IS OUR FIRST JOURNEY IN SEMESTER 5 (abam-abam sado masih botak! hahaha ) AND NOW WE ALREADY AT THE END OF SEMESTER 5!!!
As usual,at the end of semester always and always and always have the FINAL EXAMINATION ! Hey teamsegar,our final is around the corner.Saying the word “final” is usually enough to bring a dreadful silence over a classroom. Final examinations can indeed be scary stuff. Studying ahead of time and getting a good night’s sleep before an exam are two good ways to defuse stress and do well. Here are five more suggestions for doing well in your final:
1. Over prepare.
That might seem like a poor way to study. It’s much wiser to take an exam too seriously and find it easier than you expected than to wish–when it’s too late–that you’d studied more. Don’t confuse over preparing with cramming. If you over prepare, do so in advance, so that you can get a good night’s sleep before the exam.
2. Bring several writing instruments.
If your one pen or pencil fails and you need to borrow a replacement, you’ll lose time, annoy others, and look silly.
3. Use your time wisely.
Wear a watch so that you can manage time on your own terms. Many lecturers will mark the time on the whiteboard, but glancing at a watch is better than depending upon the click of the chalk–distracting at best, stressful at worst–that lets you know that another chunk of time has vanished.
Map out your work. When your professor talks about the exam, make sure that it’s clear how each part will count toward the whole. If, for instance, you have two hours and the question that’s worth half the exam, give yourself an hour to plan, write, and review your answer.It’s not unusual for students in the blur of exam week to lose track of when an exam has started and will end. So map out your work not only in minutes but with starting and ending points. Then you can’t lose track of where you are. For instance,
2:15-3:15: hard question
3:15-3:45: easy question
3:45-4:45: identifies
You can work out these details beforehand and write them discreetly in the corner of an exam booklet when you begin.
Don’t rush. This advice is especially important if your exam falls late in exam week, when many students have already left campus. Just take your time; your vacation will be waiting for you when you’re done.
4. Elaborate. If you have a choice between making a point briefly and elaborating, choose to elaborate. A lecturer reading a final exam is reading to “get to done”–to assign a grade and move on to the next exam in the stack. So you should show your knowledge and understanding in all appropriate ways.
This suggestion assumes that whatever you’re elaborating on is relevant to the question at hand. Irrelevancies won’t help your case. Nor will mere bull, which is altogether different from knowledge and understanding.
5. Don’t panic. In the worst-case exam scenario, an exam-taker goes on automatic, misreading questions, skipping key directions , and producing verbal babble as the time zooms by. It’s important to stay calm enough to focus on the work there is to do. You might visualize yourself sitting down, read the instruction, reading the questions calmly, planning your responses, and doing well. Another way to avoid panicking is to remind yourself how much time you really have. A two-hour exam equals four episodes of a situation comedy–a lot of time when you look at it that way.
hope this tips will help all of you doing well in your FINAL ! dont forget to read the instruction before you start answer ! hehehe....
GOOD LUCK ALL "TEAMSEGAR"
HOPEFULLY ALL OF US WILL PASS WITH FLYING COLOURS FOR SEMESTER 5 FINAL EXAM !
