LONG TERM PREPARATION

Your long-term preparation for the final exam should start early in your course. All through your course you should try to take good notes (see handout on note taking) and make short summaries of each topic. These summaries will be the basis for your short-term preparation, although it is wise to continually revise throughout the year.

Keep up to date with set homework and assignments so these don't interfere with study for exams.
Keep a record of information that needs to be learned by heart such as formulae, equations, definitions and so on. A small notebook for each subject is useful. Test yourself continually on these - don't try to learn them at the last minute.
