The Academic Success Center encourages students to begin their preparation for finals this week. If you have not determined when your finals are, students can come by the ASC to pick up a schedule for final exams. 

The key to this week is organization in five simple steps:

1. Find out if your exam is cumulative. You can do this by checking your syllabus or asking your professor. 
2. Find out any other information you can obtain regarding the format such as, is the exam essay format or multiple choice.
3. Go through all your tests and assignments from the semester for each class.
4. Schedule appointments with a tutor in the ASC to clarify forgotten concepts.
5. Create a study to-do-list for each course.

The ASC can help you to study smarter, not harder for your finals this fall.
