Hi Nathan. Ive also been in exams season. Ive got my own 'tricks'. Ive got to admit that im not the best student over the world, because i almost dont study, and i havent got the motivation and dedication i should give to school things. But people is wrongly directed. Studying IS NOT the most important thing in my life.

I've always studied the day before, and now im in 2nd bachillerato, it's like the highest degree in high school, just before going to university. I've never studied 2 days earlier, always the day before (yeah, its a very super bad habit =D), and with the proper mindset, preparation, relaxation, and worryless state, then I start just LEARNING, I'm not having to store PACKETS on my brain, when I study, I just try to understand Physics or Maths as I understand how I drive a motorbike.

I don't use 'technical things' I remain simple but consistent on my tasks.

And the best moment is when the exam starts. I've got an ability since I was a kid that I'm able to renember most of the pages thanks to drawings, images or symbols in them. It's a good practice.

Also it's important the moment of writing, I like to stimulate my imagination to be able to tell good stories while explaining Platon's life, for example, or in the case of physics I'm used to imagine the problems to be able to solve them (the same happens in technical drawing (architecture more or less))

I'm very relaxed before, while and after the exam, I dont need any relaxation or trance, Im already in it, I dont even stop to think about it.

I can tell you my experience as SpeedStudent )) Study the least, pass them all. Its my philosophy =)

Now I will download your mp3 and take a look. When I do it, Ill tell you how it was the experience

Jesus

PS: When I renember more 'techniques' I used, I can assure you I'll post'em too.
