UT LAW VLOG #8: finals szn, exhaustion & mental fatigue, taking exams, and positive self-talk

[@AlexGarcia913]

I hope everything went well and you enjoyed your break! I usually find myself under a huge time crunch too, so in multiple choice and essay questions I always start with the essays because (at least for my classes) the essays usually give more points, so it’s worth more writing as much as I can down, and if it comes down to it and I run out of time, I just make the best educated guess in multiple choice! I know it maybe be different with other professors and at UT but that’s my strategy usually!

I definitely think this is the best strategy for me too! I felt much better about my essay than the T/F questions which is something I never thought I would say lol

This was so stressful to watch. It was your first finals of law school and I'm glad it's over for you. However, I'm not a fan of professors trying to add tricks to the exams with property or overburden the mind with the compare and contrast you described for Criminology. But at least you have a better idea of how future exams will come and will develop some type of technique or strategy on how to Ace the next set of exams for the future semesters to come. We are proud of you. Relax now. And come back stronger.

Thank you! I got some much-needed rest and now I am ready to take on the spring semester. I have a few new goals and methods I want to integrate into my studying that I think will help me prepare for exams this semester!
