Ughhh.. So tomorrow is the first oral exam of my A-levels and I haven't studied alot yet..
3 written exams are already completed ! But I just can't force myself to sit down and study.. I always get distracted way to fast.
Although it worked alright up to now, I'm really worried I'm gonna fail, especially because I get extremely nervous talking infront of ppl
k.. I don't want to annoy you with my shit..
Zzzzzzz.. I'm really tired, here's a pic of me right now:

The first exam is over now!!! It acually wasn't as bad as I expected it to be :D
But the one next week requires alot more studying :(

Ukuleles are pretty great, don't you think? :D
Gonna have to study alot today, in order to not fail my exam tommorow :/
how about you guys? Does anybody else have exams upcoming?
kant is one of the philosophers I have to know about
Umm.. yeah that's it, let's hope that I don't fuck up :P

You must study though, man. :/ To avoid getting bored when studying, I usually reward myself with something (food, game, etc.) when I have finished reading a specific amount of pages.

yeah I try to do the same.. but I always plan to start studying about a week before the exam and end up starting a day or 2 before, so it's alot of stress everytime :P

Study is a work to push the knowledge to the brain.
Brain must be damaged. It's stressful.

I tried that a couple of times for other oral exams or talks I did in school, but it didn't help much
I'm just happy when it's over and I hope I don't have to repeat the class, cause then I have to do it again in one year :D

A-levels = Abi? Falls ja, viel Erfolg!
Wenn du anschließend studieren willst, richte dich (in den meisten Fächern) auf deutlich mehr Lernerei ein. Bei mir zumindest waren Schule und Abi vom Arbeitsaufwand her nichts im Vergleich mit dem Studium.

ja abi.. hab mir schon gedacht, dass es im studium mehr wird
viele meiner freunde die angefangen haben zu studieren haben nach spätestens 3 semestern abgebrochen weil sie zu viele klausuren nicht bestanden haben.. (alle haben informatik studiert)
ich hoffe einfach wenn ich später was studiere was mir auch spaß macht, dann fällt mir das lernen etwas einfacher :D

Das Lernen geht, man muss es nur lernen, wenn man ohne durch die Schule gekommen ist. Ich habe Physik studiert, das waren meist 10h in der Uni + 2h Nachbearbeitung pro Tag. Nachdem ich gelernt habe effizienter zu lernen war es weniger.
Es mag Studiengänge geben, in denen deutlich weniger Aufwand reicht.

also so lange an einem Tag lernen würde ich glaub ich auf keinen fall durchhalten, ich hab nämlich ne art konzentrationsschwäche.. ich würde da einfach durchdrehen :D
physik war mir schon ab der 9. klasse zu kompliziert.. aber ich habe mich auch kaum dafür interessiert :P

Na aber sicher. :) Frag mal in den humanwissenschaftlichen Fachbereichen nach.
Da ists halt auch viel lesen aber das meiste wird dann einfach "gepaukt".

In Physik, Chemie, Mathematik, Informatik etc. reicht Auswendiglernen ja häufig nicht mehr aus.
Und gerade in Info/Mathe scheitern viele einfach an Analysis und Lineare Algebra da hier plötzlich nicht mehr "gerechnet" wird wie in der Schule sondern eben tatsächlich Mathematik betrieben wird. Spaß macht es halt irgendwann trotzdem. Der "Uni-Schock" am Anfang muss halt erstmal verdaut und Prioritäten gesetzt werden.

I do think that oral exams is the easiest one, cuz you have more freedom to show your knowledge that way (compared to write exams).

yeah.. but my problem is that when I get nervous I tend to forget important stuff and don't say anything :o
in written exams I have more time to overthink and correct my answers

Yeah I know that feeling :( . when I passed my finals, my classmates and I training together. The othvo remember what to say, to train your oral performance and the other can tell you where you make a mistake or what verbal tic you have to avoid etc, and by being 2 or more, you have less chance to procrastinate but, procrastination is life I know :'( . Well I wish you good l... wait in my country we never say this sentence, we say " I tell you shit" (approximative translation) XD

this is how i do it:
i set up a 20 minutes timer and in these 20 minutes i'm completly concentrated and let nothing distract me. after that i can have a small break but usually i do another 20 minutes session

it's easier to split it into small parts than having a mount of paper in front of you

I found that making sure I allowed enough time to sleep the night before, and then doing something completely unrelated on the day of the exam made me relaxed me and helps my recall when I finally start the exam
