The November 13 Study Skills morning was an excellent beginning. Students should have a study schedule prepared, charting their time from now until the last exam. Reviewing old tests and rewriting notes is a good place to start. Students should seek extra help from teachers, with specific questions, when necessary, as well as, request peer tutors in areas of concern. During Study Week, extra-curriculars are cancelled.
Students can check the exam schedule on the web or school notice boards.
During exam week, students are only expected to be at school during exams. Students on the bus with only one exam should bring work to study for the half day they are not writing. I suggest that students show up about half an hour prior to the exam, enough time to not worry about being late, yet not too much time to get involved in hallway collective anxiety. Looking at old exams may be of some utility as well.
