Title: Printing out exams?
Post by: vashappenin on May 06, 2012, 09:04:44 am

Hey all,
Okay, so mid-years are coming up, and I'm preparing for psych.
I've started to do practise papers, but there's just waaaaaaay too many!!
My plan is do review every AoS and then do as many questions from the past study design as possible just by looking through the computer, then after feeling confident of revising everything, I'll print out only the 2011 papers..
Is it okay to be doing the questions off my laptop? I know it's not exam conditions, but I'm just doing questions based on AOS, and when I actually do full papers I plan to print them out.
Am I doing the right thing? Or should I be printing out anything regardless?

Thanks :)

If you decide to do this, I recommend you write down the answers for the questions, just so you memorize them better. However, I also recommend you do some of the other past exams (even though they aren't the new study design) just to get a feel for how the exam will be.

Print them definitely! That way you'll revise and remember better, while also being under time condition.  ;D

Just for a contrast, I didn't print any out and did alright :)

(having said that, my school printed out huge amounts of methods and spesh exams 4-to-a-page [very hard to read], but I don't think that really counts)

There's no doubt - you should print them out. Think of it as an investment in your success.
