How to prepare for exam in the Last moment WHEN YOU HAVE STUDIED NOTHING. (Most suitable for language and humanities discipline students)


1. Collect previous years' question papers.


I know this is the hardest thing. But it is the best thing when you can do nothing but like this. Go through previous question papers and examine the pattern of questions. There may be short answers, one word answers  etc. While going through the question papers you can see a pattern; such as the name of the author, year of his work published, paragraph questions and essays. In questions for small grades, see what they have asked and expect similar questions from parts that are not asked in the last years' question papers. See how many essay questions and how many paragraph questions are there and calculate how much time you would need and how much would you be expected to write in the exam hall. If you have more than one question paper with you stick onto repeated questions in the question papers.

2. Connect to Internet-Activate a data plan.

I say this because I know if you are late to start, obviously you will have nothing (syllabus material) with you. So activate an internet offer now and start googling. The best sites for knowledge gathering are Wikipedia.org, About.com, Yahoo answers, and individual blogs of scholars (like ___blogspot.com and ___wordpress) See not to lose your time on reading unwanted hells. Check for points and use the Ctrl+F (press Ctrl and F buttons) to open the find dialog box, type the keyword in it and press enter. If the word you wanted is there, the browser (software you are using to browse internet) will highlight those portions. Press enter to toggle between the results. Copy and paste relevant info (text) to the word processor (like MS Word) and organize it. After copying click the ‘view’ button an select ‘Full Screen Reading’ now you will be able to read what you copied just like in a book. (This step can be avoided if you are taking notes directly from the web page).

3. Jot down important points from the info you collected on a book.

No matter what you do, exam is a matter of memory/how much you are able to remember in the exam hall. So write down important points and underline them. Read it at times and try to recall what you read often.

4. On the day of exam, go through your speedy notes.

Don’t worry too much; read slowly and make sure that you are not reading the notes in an auto-mode. Give sufficient time for your brain to store what you read.

5. Believe in God, pray to Him and you will land in success.

Pray to God. He is the only one who knows your worries. He can perform miracles (provided you do something).
