Chances are we are well aware that our finals were eventually going to come up but when you’re investing your time in school, projects, socializing and just trying to keep up with daily life it feels like this probably has sprung up on you out of nowhere. When you feel this way chances are anxiety is definitely kicking your ass and potentially you feel like struggling to retain any sort of information. BRING ON THE PANIC ATTACKS!

Study time! Whether we like it or not Sometimes the best thing we can do is study and prepare for finals. If you’re like me, studying is the hardest thing in the world to do so why not try to make it fun if you need the support of friends come up with a study group. If you feel you’ll be too distracted working with other people music will definitely be your best friend! One of my greatest tools when it comes to studying is playing any type of music that will just get me into the zone and make studying kind of fun!
4. “Can we get extra credit?!”

If you’re struggling this semester don’t be afraid to talk to your teacher and find out what exactly you can do to boost your chances whether it be extra credit or just going over something one more time. Secretly, teachers love this! Nothing screams I am trying my hardest more to a teacher at then you coming to them and saying that you need their help!
