i dont study at all. during class i just pay attention and listen. I pass all of my tests with an 80% or better tho. So I never really study. I dunno how i pass sometimes tho. *shrugs*

I never study for a test until the night before, unless of course it's a test containing A LOT of material or an exam, then I'll study maybe two days in advance...? I also pay close attention in class, so their are some subjects I rarely study for until a few hours before the test, because I pretty much already know it.

The night before...unless it is a math test...I neva study for those. Once I forget to study for a vocab test and I got a D on the spelling of the words ans a C on the definitions...I studied 2 minutes before the test. WARNING: NEVER DO THAT!!!

Blair-Lisa#1Fan · 02-24-2002, 08:09 PM

I usually study two days or one day before the test. Last week I totally forgot about studying for my vocab test and I failed it. Well that sucked, but like almost everyone in my class failed it also.

ISmellFine · 02-24-2002, 08:22 PM

I study before the test...how ever much time the teacher gives us before she/he passes out the test. I usually make pretty ok grades.

Kay Scarpetta · 02-24-2002, 08:51 PM

I never study except for Spanish. Like someone else said, I just pay attention in class. I get good grades though... but I'm going to have to improve my study skills for high school

Mr. Shy Guy · 02-24-2002, 10:27 PM

I never study for anything except Spanish also. I hate my Spanish teacher. Her tests are so long and hard.

Bootsy Whoosh · 02-24-2002, 11:00 PM

I usually just review my notes the night before. Usually I start out reading my notes and then just writing down the main points on a separate piece of paper, like a study sheet. Usually though I get tired of doing that and just end up highlighting the main points and reviewing straight from my notes. I pretty much never studied in high school (except for French), but I can't get away with that anymore!

I dont pay attention in class so i read the whole chapter or whatever the night before

JoPol_wannabe · 02-25-2002, 02:04 AM

I take notes during class and I re-read the chapter over several times because if I don't then I'm out of luck and I have my parents go over the material with me and even though I do all of this I'm lucky if I get an 85 on a test. Test are just hard for me.

When I was in school, I would look over my notes and re-read the material 2 or 3
days prior to the test, depending on which subject the test was on. Reviewing
the material was easy, but taking the
test was h@ll, I always choked and I do
mean always.
