Having to dedicate yourself to studying for an exam with only a week's time can be a nightmare, but with the right technique and good planning, your chances of being successful and receiving a good grade increase dramatically. Let's see together how to proceed.
Steps
Step 1. Calm down
Most people get nervous in situations like this, resulting in not being able to study until the last night before the exam, when the situation is now critical.
Step 2. Prepare brief notes
This is not the time to prepare the best notes of your life, with which to win a competition for the best student, you will need clear, schematic and synthetic notes, which include no more than 15-16 words for each point. Write any important formulas and all related derivations into the clipboard. Emphasize the basic topics of the book, preparing to study only these sections before the exam.
Step 3. Study with discipline and commitment
Study as much as you can, as if this exam were your last chance.
Step 4. Discard the topics you consider less relevant
Reinforce concepts and notions related to all other topics you have studied.
