It’s Finals time and the end of the year…Yikes
Posted Friday, December 07, 2007 by Mark Krupinski

As if finals are not bad enough, we get to throw the end of the year pressure in the mix. Unless you are only a student, I am sure you understand what I am talking about.

When December comes, the boss man comes out too. It is that time of the year where the company’s numbers come to a close and the books need to look good, show lots of profit for the year and be ready for new beginnings. This time of year has always been stressful for me in the finance world of business.

Now I have finals to worry about too. The good thing is after next week we get a break and boy do I need it. Finals seem to get harder and harder as time goes by. I thought school would get easier as I become accustom to everything, boy was I wrong.

Actually some classes are a breeze for me and others are not so much. For example my computer class that I am currently taking is challenging, but yet I understand it. The English Composition class is a bit more difficult for me; therefore I am worried about writing my final paper.  

I have not been able to figure out any new strategies to put into place yet when it comes to taking finals. The key elements go back to the basic; time management, studying, reviewing notes from the semester and asking your teacher any questions you might have. I know from experience, being an online student you sometimes forget that there is a teacher who is available to answer any questions you might have.

BTW: Check out this site for a few tips on studying for finals.

How are you doing this time of year?

I can relate to working full time and going to school full time. I really have to discipline myself. Most important thing is to make some down time to relax and regroup your thoughts. It will help you concentrate better.
