Had exam 1 and barely passed it, felt like I'd score around a 90 walking in and was pretty well prepared. We have 2 weeks between exam 1 and exam 2, and my plan of taking 1 day off kind of turned into 4 days off.
There will be a total of 30 lecture hours worth of material and I have 6 days left to study. So far I have spent over 12 hours just to get through 6 lecture hours of material. That leaves 48 hours of studying = 8 hours a day. The most I've ever studied in a day (quality studying, not doing homework/projects) is literally 7 hours. At my current pace I'm not even going to look at half the material.
The only good news is that the class average was literally below passing for exam 1 so maybe they will go soft on us, but otherwise I'm literally screwed and am not counting on them lightening up. Plus all my classmates kicked it into high gear and I'm eating dust it feels like
I usually outline the entire lecture which takes forever but I get the information down. Should I just print the powerpoint and highlight/rewatch lecture to save time? I don't feel like I retain the info as well but it is a lot quicker and I'm pretty much in panic mode now that I realize how little progress I'm making.
I studied half as much in year one and never got a score this low. I'm pretty much freaking out
