Exams can be so time-consuming and mentally draining. It would help if you found a way to study. Studying makes it better to get higher scores. Life is like a test, choosing options and receiving answers for our actions and studying sessions to retain information.
When I have a class, I study ahead of time because I wouldn't say I like to cram. Studying ahead of time makes it better for students to do well in their classes. Cramming makes it difficult for a student when they have a lot going on with other classes. School is stressful, and it isn't easy. Try to study before the quizzes and exams, and sometimes people tell me, but I study, and I fail my exams. Try to find different ways to become more engaged in the class.
Many things are happening when you are taking an exam. Just breathe and try to make the best out of it.
At least you are in school, and you are grinding. Keep trying, and even if you fail an exam. speak to your instructor to give you tips to become more successful in the course. Reading the chapters and renting the book should be a must for you. When you read chapters, make sure that you can understand what you are reading. If you do not know what you are reading, you must re-read. Make a study group should be something you can do if you feel like you need more input in the course. Some people study by themselves because it makes them more comfortable.
Having a study group is a genius idea because when you do not comprehend something, your friend can help you understand it. Due to COVID, you can make a virtual study group.

When this virus was nonexistent, I used to live in Paterno library because that is where I focus. It's my ideal study environment and I love being surrounded by books and being able to get knowledge from my classes.
