Preparing for finals can be stressful and anxiety-inducing; cramming tons of notes, drinking cups-on-cups of coffee, pulling countless all-nighters and still somehow feeling unprepared when you sit down to take your exam. But it doesn’t have to be this way! Here are some online resources to help you prepare for finals and alleviate some of the stress going into them.
GET REVISING
The core concept of Get Revising is encouraging students to be actively involved in their revision process in a fun, creative way. Create a revision timetable, practice questions and access a range of resources, like revision notes, flashcards, crosswords and presentations. This is helpful for specific courses such as criminology, law and marketing. You can even create your own resources to keep yourself on track and share them with others to provide a helping hand to those in the same boat as you.
