How do you memorize information 3 days before improtant exam?

Aisling: How do you memorize information 3 days before improtant exam?
I would rather stay all night and solve the sample problems and sample exams over and over again. Although it was not quite helpful(I wonder why). How do you study three days, two days, or even a night before exam?

For me its pretty easy, I usually listen in class and be okay with that…
The reason why I’d be pretty okay with that is because I have that “photographic memory” thing and a lot people say no fair, which is true. When I see a particular word, sentence, paragraph I memories them the instant I read them, then at the test when theirs a familiar word I’d be like oh I remember that and yeah.

But I guess it’s best to study an hour each night at least, studying to much actually causes the mind to overwork and mix up the process of thinking, then you’d probably get lost and be like “OMG! I just studied this why can’t I remember!” Well overworking the brain can cause lost of memory for a few minutes or so. Or the easiest thing to do is make flash cards, I love making them because their fast and are like on-the-go. Plus they point out the main details.

Especially for essays, get the main parts and if you can remember how they got those main parts then everything flows and probably remember what you’ve heard.

Hope I could help…
