Sharks Speak: How will you prepare for midterms?

“I’m not preparing yet, but I will be trying to study a little bit every day. Especially for me, it is biology and chemistry, so I need to get ahead of it. I will be practicing more problems for chemistry and also trying to understand better than just memorizing,” said Cristina Gallardo, sophomore biology major.

“I haven’t prepared yet, but just studying ahead. Being on top of my classes, so there is not much to review. Just studying a little bit every day. This year I’ll try to not spend as much time and to not procrastinate as I have done in past midterm weeks,” said Pierce Azan, sophomore public health major.

“I haven’t started preparing yet, but I usually just go through my notes kind of reviewing. I make questions using flashcards. For my arts minor, I usually spend a week in the studio and then I try to finish all my projects before the exam,” said Pratha Rattan, senior neuroscience major.

“Right now, I am not preparing, but probably next week, I am going to make sure I can book as many study rooms as I can to really lock in. Review presentations from class lectures, do some practice problems for chem, use flashcards and recorded presentations that help me study too,” said Andrew Oestmann, sophomore exercise and sport science and neuroscience major.
