So pretty much everyone has finals of some sort and will undoubtedly be avoiding studying this next week or two. So what classes does everyone have finals for and which should you probably be studying for instead of being on newschoolers


what are the best ways to cram? I think a few people might need to know

well I went on to get a higher edumacation in law school and I have one test left, contracts.

I use the shit out of quizlet.com to practice and test myself
even if you don't feel like making your own notes, search for someone else's and its pretty standard.

cramming tho just pull the all-nighter. youll hate yourself the next day but your parents will appreciate that good grade (liver the next day, whatever your vice).

Pay attention and keep up during the semester and then finals are easy as shit. I don't know why people wait till finals week to learn a semesters worth of material, just do it as time goes on and it makes it 300 times easier.

I'm in accounting and most of my classes are math based so I just go through and redo homeworks. As an ex science major, the best thing is to study processes and understand them. Don't worry about the details, they'll make more sense if you have a better overall understanding.

If you're gonna be a cheating fuck and take adderall, take it when you study AND during the test. Don't to one or the other cause it would be pointless.

It's obviously way more fun to not doing anything all semestermy that way you can do a bunch of drugz during finals weeks and be cool and stuff.

I have 3 finals to take and the highest grade I have to get on any of them to maintain my current grades is a 63.

I took accounting last year as a sophomore in high school, it was ass, never liked it, almost took college accounting this year but thought I was never gonna use it and it would wreck me. Im glad I didn't and took Marketing instead

Haha or you can be like me and have no friends and geek out on school(: just kidding, but it's so nice getting to the end of the semester and being able to get a B/C on a final and still get an A.

I love it haha. I'm more interested in the finance aspect/ applications of it than anything. I'm also a bit of a math geek so I enjoy it. Marketing is great too. Just depends on what you wanna get out of it!

Thats what my brother did. Im not a math guy, its funny because my brother is going into finance and my dad is an accountant. I personally want to go into some design or architecture but they take a lot of time and work so its hard to ski later when I grow up. Hopefully I find something that still allows me to ski

One of my best friends wanted to be an architect, he ended up switching majors after one semester, he hated how subjective everything was when it came to assignments.

Just got my grades back from this semester holy shit it was a grind. I had a bunch of shit going on outside of school which meant I was way behind going into finals last week it sucked. One A, One B, One C. Fuck it I'll take it. Now its time for one bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.
