so far i've done 2 exams out of 5. i flunked both.
sometimes, no matter how well-prepared you are, you're still not going to ace the test. now i realised. i remember what i've learnt in ANT100 last year about competence and performance. i think i've some serious problems with "performance". i'm not saying i'm 100% ready before exams, i think i'm just not meant for biochem. there are always ppl who are exceptional smart, who study horribly hard, who are far more interested in the subject we are learning around me in my program. i lacked behind by too much.
something really unpleasant happened days before the exams. i've sort of recovered by now already. but i began to dread the upcoming holiday, suddenly wish if the exam period can last longer. still 3 more to go.

I think the best thing you can do besides studying is to get plenty of rest. It sounds simple, but I've found it really works. Study for half an hour chunks, then take a break. Study and scan over the material right before you go to bed. Then it gets worked over in your brain while you sleep.
Interest does help though...if you're not interested in the subject it does make it hard to be prepared.
Sorry that something unpleasant happened :-(. Good luck on the rest of your exams!
you are right. that's why i'm thinking of not going for grad school after my graduation. i found out that i'm not really interested in what i'm doing now, which is biochem.
about plenty of rest, well, i don't think i can afford it right now. i've exams on tues and wed, and i'm seriously running short of time...
i know burning night oil isn't good for my health. i went to sleep at 4am and waking up with a soar throat... i really need a good rest after wed.
