you do need a good sleep before an exam as well as lots of carbs lol mmm carbs...

i tend to learn stuff we do really well in class and do summaries and stuff not long after. then when it comes to exam time i can study quicker and effectivlier (is that even a word???!!!) by just reading over my summaries. it all comes back really quickly and after a couple of times reading through im back on top of it all. then again, that probably wont work for normal people - i memorise stuff easily - like entire syllabuses. *shame* oh well, so long as you have enough energy (in terms of awakeness and also food energy levels) for the exam study whenever your want so long as it goes in.

these exams have been so weird. For some exams I had notes wrote up and completed about 2 weeks before the exam whilst others the night before! I ended up reading all my notes out loud the night before and did not do a single paper say for chem which I wrote down. I did however go through the question, think about how I was gonna answer it and check my notes, then look at the answer. SOrta helped me do a 3hr paper in 30 mins. I memorised like nuts this time round. Normally I can't even remember a 1200 word essay in an entire night/day but like for the english modules i managed to cram in 3 essays in 5 hrs! pretty crazy stuff.

That's quite a feat. Nice memory ;)
