亲爱的小伙伴们、
周三已经到啦、
有没有感觉时间过得特别快,
所以好好珍惜吧,
接下来的一个月你可能都很难再笑出来了...
因为Fall 2016 Final Exam Schedule已经收到了吧,
so,这预示着 期末要来了!
11月,注定是学海无涯的一个月!对于刚刚进入大学的你来说,这将是你面临的第一场大型考试。
所以首先,你要知道自己即将面临的是什么样的情况:
1、图书馆将被24小时占领
在临近考试的最后几周,很多学院会尽可能得保持主要图书馆24小时开放,但这通常也意味着:做为新手的你占到一个好的复习位置的可能性是微乎其微的,这时候你就要学会寻觅其他不那么拥挤又更安静的复习场所:比如休息室、建筑物中庭、宿舍(室友给力的情况下)
2、开始和时间赛跑
当你在高中习惯了45分钟-1个小时的课程、考试,进了大学你就得开始接受2-2个半小时的耐力磨炼了,在这漫长的150min里你将完成从单选、多选、填空到开放论文的各种题型。
虽然大多数教授会允许学生提前离开,但通常也会给出最低时间要求,所以,不要试图在不到一个小时的时候就开始如坐针毡。
更何况,大多数情况下你会发现即使有这么长的时间你还是做不完,所以从现在开始你就可以带起手表给自己计时了,从小论文到大作业,看自己的效率如何。
3、只有final exam?too天真!
什么叫做:屋漏偏逢连夜雨,破船又遇打头风。讲的就是final exam+ final project + final paper三重打击!让你一边码着最后的论文,一边背着漫无边际的考试重点,一边还要满世界得找做着project就消失的小组成员,三方势力胶着拉扯,抗不抗得住就看你的耐力了。
最后,再来看下由University Primetime总结出的:全美Final Exam最难的100所大学!
