Techniques to Pass Final Exams
Take the Right Approach
Different
types of college exams require different study approaches. Multiple choice
means focusing on definitions and concepts. Essay tests require you to exhibit
a conceptual understanding of the material. Ask your professor about the format
of the exam so you know how to prepare.
Learn by Teaching Others
Explaining
concepts to a classmate or friend is a great way to make sure you really
understand the material yourself and to help them learn as well. When you find
new ways to explain a concept, you are mastering the information by processing
it for others.
Test Your Knowledge
Once
you know the format, try creating a practice exam based on what you think the
test might cover. This will help you understand the material on a deeper level,
and guide what you should be studying. You can then use your practice exam to
quiz yourself and your study group.
