Effective Cramming Method

Gathering and Summarizing Notes

• Collect all notes from lectures relevant to the midterm exam.
• If notes are missing, use an app to summarize lecture recordings or textbook pages.
• Review the summarized study guides to save time.

Practice Tests

• Dedicate about two hours to taking practice tests.
• Become familiar with the test format.
• Practice active recall.

Strategic Brain Dumping

• Write the main topic in the center of a page.
• Divide the information into an outline format.
• For each part of the outline, write down key terms and ideas from the summarized study guides.
• Write down everything you can remember about each term or idea.

Targeted Review and Practice

• Identify areas you don't remember or understand.
• Retake practice tests on those specific sections.
• Continue until you score 85% or above on those sections.
