Planning for Finals

Dr. Aldrich "Pat" Patterson 
CSU, Chico Student Counseling and Wellness Center 

The final exam in a class is your last opportunity to “seal the deal” on your final grade and what you learned. Learn how to prepare early, study in a systematic way, and anticipate the test questions. Dr. Patterson’s presentation is sprinkled with practical tips – study as much as possible during the day, as there are too many distractions in the evening; write papers and finish reading early, so there is time for review before the final exam; carefully organize notes; and much more.
