College Slap me on the head, please en>fr fr>en By saaammie Comments: 90, member since Thu Apr 01, 2010On Thu Jan 05, 2012 09:02 AM
I'm on vacation now, it's lovely.
I have two major exams coming up, on the 13th and 17th. If I don't pass, I don't get any grant/loan money, ergo I can't continue next semester until I have the required credits.
One of the classes is VERY VERY VERY hard. ~50% fail the exam, and the thing is, it's not really my subject.
I have studied, but not nearly enough. And now I'm on vacation, and planned to study, but got the flu and yaddayadayada. And now I'm all nervous because I've got to pass, and I'm not sure I can, and I don't want to be even more behind than I already am. (I've had a year off because of medical reasons.)
Anyway, you hear my list of excuses.
So...
Can someone just slap me on the head and yell at me to go study? NOW. Pronto.

You need organisation! If you've got behind on revision for whatever reason it'll have got out of your routine (especially on holiday) so you need to try and get it back in. The best way for me is to make a strict timetable so it holds me accountable to something: I have to get a certain amount done per day before I can do other stuff, and that helps me avoiding procrastinating and get on with it. Good luck, and what are the exams about, by the way? |

You could start by stopping telling yourself that you are on vacations. You aren't on vacation unless you are done your exams. This time is for revision so that you can do well on your finals. |

Coccinella, I am on vacation. At least physically. I'm in Florida with family. I just suck at planning, since obviously I wanna do touristy things while I'm here, I just don't combine it well with studying.
Bridgetbee, it's an advanced accounting class (the one 50% fails) and organizational management.
Thanks guys. |

^ Sorry! I thought you meant it in the sense that your classes were over so you don't have anything to do now aside from the exams.  |
