Students Having Exams Before the Winter Holiday

Most university students will be having their final exams just before the Winter break. Depending on the weather, it may affect your mood to stay focused and study for your exams. Remember, all you need to do is get over this time of difficulty and your semester will be over. Winter break will be your well-deserved time off from your studies, using the time to spend with family and friends.

For those who are in high school, you're nearly half-way through the school year. Look forward to the Winter break and hang in there until then.

Wishing all students a good remainder of the year. Use the winter break to recharge and start a new semester in the new year!~

Thank you for this post and great encouragement! Exam time is very stressful for many students and it is important to use the upcoming holidays to get enough rest and to reward yourself for all the hard work! I wish that the exams will go well for all of you 🌸

@Jaeteuk Thank you. I am feeling really overwhelmed with my finals right now and juggling studying for multiple exams with limited time left. Plus I also have a presentation. Feeling kind of lonely in dealing with it all cuz I have less free time to go to social events.

I know exam time is always stressful for everyone. Juggling courses, finding time to study for each, you'll often lose time to for social activities. Think of it as meeting up with friends right after you've all completed your final exams. Look forward to the end of exam week. Good luck on your finals and presentation!~

Sometimes passing is good enough. It's good to be not too hard on yourself, that way, there will always be room for improvement.

We have so many different deadlines to keep track of too. I tend to put them in my google calendar, but I missed the due date to sign up for a class in the spring today. :( I'm really upset and frustrated with myself. I saw the due date was today but didn't read the part about it being at noon. I emailed the administrator about an hour after the deadline. Hope she will still let me sign up. Just really frustrated I missed this but I've been so overwhelmed.

Glad she allowed you to register. I remember I used to get 2 different dates. One is like an early bird registration, and a later date for regular registrations. Sometimes they extend it too~

Good luck with your exams! Good to hear your practical exam went well. I think it'll be difficult to find someone who love writing exams. Even straight A's students may not like exams!~

Oh wow, 9 exams! Good preparation = good grades. Rest well over the weekend, make sure you don't cram any last minute studying though. I find that the day before an exam, if you don't know the material yet, last minute cramming will just make your memory worsen. It is better to have your brain relaxed when you head in for the exam. Last minute cramming will only make you feel more stressed.

Good luck with all 9 exams!~

Exams for high school shouldn't be too difficult. I think if you've kept an average grade throughout each course, you will be fine for the exams~

I failed math 2 times back in high school too. I only passed the 3rd time with 51%. I think my teacher passed me because of the effort I put in.. lolz. Sadly with Math, it's a lot of memorizing of formulas and only lots of practice questions will help with familiarizing how to solve each type of equation.

@Jaeteuk I remember finals being such a difficult time, but it was always a good time too studying with all my friends and goofing off when we should've been focused. I want everyone to remember that grades do not define who you are and there is always room to change! I had to retake a couple classes, but I still got my degree and that's what matters. You've got this!!

Jaeteuk OP December 16th, 2022

I don't even have a degree. But, I do have a Certificate, and was trying to earn a Diploma when COVID started, but I had been putting it on hold since last Winter. I had never been a school person, so I was surprised I finished the Certificate program a few years ago.

Yes, you're right about how grades don't define us. It's a very small part of our lives, it's the process of getting to the end, reaching your goals that count more. Grades is just a number or letter, we shouldn't feel like we've failed when that number is low. We need to think of it as, "maybe I didn't put enough effort into my studies, that I'll need to get on it the next semester and work harder". I believe that everything we've learned in our studies is a benefit to our life experiences, so it's not entirely a matter of succeeding or failing, it's more like what we have learned and can apply to our everyday lives. It should be something that will help us grow, and if we got a bad grade, we just need to learn from our mistakes, and move forward. It's never the end of the world, yes, some people may need to retake the course, but going through it a second time, you should know what it is that you'll need to focus more on to pass. The key is to not give up, and setting a goal will help keep you stay motivated~
