- [00:00:15.440]Hello. My name is Logan Newman.
- [00:00:17.630]I'm a senior Fisheries and Wildlife major
- [00:00:19.460]in the Pre-Vet program and I'm from Table Rock, Nebraska.
- [00:00:22.470]One of the hardest parts about adapting to college for me,
- [00:00:25.320]has been studying and taking tests.
- [00:00:27.880]Even though in high school I took higher level
- [00:00:29.780]and college credit courses,
- [00:00:31.400]I was able to cram the day before
- [00:00:32.980]and still do well on an exam.
- [00:00:35.260]There have been some exams in college where this has worked,
- [00:00:38.220]but then there has been some exams where
- [00:00:39.810]that has not worked well at all.
- [00:00:42.080]It really depends on how well you understand
- [00:00:44.210]and are personally invested in the course.
- [00:00:46.950]Throughout that first semester,
- [00:00:48.290]it was pretty difficult for me to figure out
- [00:00:50.280]how to study best for me.
- [00:00:52.710]And I learned that I was going to have to study a lot more
- [00:00:55.280]for my chemistry classes in college
- [00:00:57.180]than I did in high school.
- [00:00:58.890]One of the best pieces of advice
- [00:01:00.480]that my chemistry professor gave to me,
- [00:01:02.710]was take the first exam and study more
- [00:01:04.760]than you'd actually expect to.
- [00:01:06.480]Because then if you do really well,
- [00:01:07.970]you can figure out what worked best
- [00:01:09.760]and then gauge your studying for the future exams
- [00:01:12.260]and it sets your semester out on a high note.
- [00:01:15.480]It really depends on how you study personally
- [00:01:18.350]and what you like best, everyone's different.
- [00:01:21.020]And it may initially take some time
- [00:01:22.440]to figure out what works best for you,
- [00:01:23.950]but there are academic resources to help you.
- [00:01:26.540]Finally, the last piece of advice that I would like to
- [00:01:28.850]give is go to your professor's office hours,
- [00:01:31.520]either before or after the exam.
- [00:01:33.820]Before the exam, they can help you figure out
- [00:01:36.100]what you may need to study for the exam and
- [00:01:38.440]after they can help you figure out what you missed
- [00:01:40.370]to better help you for the final.
