Exams
and Procrastination
During the last couple
of weeks before the exams, teachers will hand out seemingly endless packets and
reviews that will make many students just want to give up. With a stack of work
and every question seeming the same it can become quite repetitive and dull.
This will cause students to take breaks more frequently and even forget to go
back to it. With the internet, the world is almost at your fingertips and with
that, students will tend to go it leaving work behind.
Which
sounds more appealing, constantly studying the theorems and definitions, or playing
a video game and going on a phone? For many students around exam time, option
two is most desirable. In that case, a set time for studying should be had in preparation
for exams, with the occasional short break in between subjects.
A
way to stop procrastination would to be to turn off your phone for an hour, go
to a quiet place to study, or even listening to some music to get yourself into
the flow. Limiting the tasks each day and making your schedule more flexible before
and during exam week is a great way to increase the probability of success and
reaching your goal. Hard work is a key to success, and without it success would
be very little.
