So, since I have a Biology final happening tomorrow and I haven't studied much for it, I thought to share a study method which has helped me quite a bit
Who will this probably help out?
Someone who likes writing
Maybe, perhaps you're into teaching concepts
You just want to yap and rant about things
Anyway, now onto the actual thing:
So basically, I try to, as I create my notes for the final, I always try to make it like I'm writing a story. So instead of having everything as information in a document, I try to make it more narrative-driven. I'll just give you the step-by-step process of how I do it, and then you can tweak it to your taste
First, I create a document where I can type. I've started to use Microsoft Word more for this
Then I try to first cover the things that have generally been talked about. It's like an introductory section that is in most nonfic books
From there I start to write down EVERYTHING I know and can find by my own notes during class, the slides that the teacher has made, notes from other students, etc.
Then after I try to write about the projects that we've worked on and exams that I've done for the class. I go over like the right answers, but I always try to write WHY something is the way it is. If I had answered wrongly then I would explain why I thought something was the way it is
Once you're done covering all of the material in general (Should take about 4 hours? Gives you already a good ass coverage of the whole material) then you want to go over any practice exams
Afterwards in your notes (after you've gone through your own answers), you would want to explain what things you got right and what things you got wrong. And then as a writer, you want to make like a little sidenote of what the reader should be aware of (like any tricky parts of your class)
From there, to pique your interest in the topic, you can do a deep dive on a certain subject. It can be more helpful to research a topic that you struggled to understand, so you can be more ready to answer questions about the topic
But yeah, in general, you'll be writing like a little journal, which is in turn just you teaching yourself the subject you're going to take a final in. Hopefully, this helps someone!
