Top hacks:
1) Buy books, learn material before class starts. Then review each section before each class, with notes and questions. You know you are doing it right when everything is boringly obvious by the time you officially get to it.
2) Practice doing problems as fast as possible. During exams, do all problems quickly, keep doing passes through all the questions to fix mistakes until time is up.
3) Explain what you learn to others. This is where you actually start understanding.
- tootlol 15y agoDid you find success with this approach? Is it enough to get 95%?
- nwhitehead 15y agoEvery time I did these I got 98% or higher. I only got worse grades when I didn't have time to do all these things because of how many classes I was taking simultaneously.
- tootlol 15y agoHow do you manage your assignments? Do you ever feel bogged down by them?
- nwhitehead 15y agoStart doing them as soon as you get them. Never spend too long on any one assignment or question. If one question is taking too long, ask for help as soon as you can. Practice getting and giving help, these are crucial skills. If necessary, cut your losses (but always turn in your best current attempt for every problem, never miss anything).
