Aaaahh!  Exams!  The bete noir of every student and yet, we all have face them, write them and pass them.  In How to Study for an Exam, Angel sets out a great little checklist on how to prepare without having the pull in an all nighter cramming for the exam.  Having crammed on more than one occasion I could certainly relate to the author's observation, that cramming is not the best way to get good results.  One tip that she gave was to start preparing for the exam before the subject or topic is even discussed in class.  Teachers give reading assignments to students prior to the class - yet most students arrive without having cracked open the book.  Doing your reading assignment gives is the first step to preparing for a future exam and doing well.  The book is full of similar tips and sets out a good system for students who want good results.
