I have felt what it feels like to have four tests in one week. And let me say, it is not too much fun, but definitely possible with a little foresight. Since I received all of my syllabuses at the beginning of the year, I started studying a week before my tests. On Monday, I took Spanish and Psychology. On the way back from the Shins concert on Sunday, I studied some more for those tests.

Wednesday I had a Cross Cultural Journalism test. It was pretty time consuming. We spent an hour and fifteen minutes on ten short answer questions. Needless to say, my hand felt like it had died. And let me say, what a good way to spend Valentine’s Day! The week was not done for journalism though. I had my Principles of American Journalism test on Thursday. What a full week! Those big journalism classes that everyone takes seem to be weed-out classes, so it is very important to study for those tests. Also in both of the journalism classes, there are only three tests for the entire class and only extra points for the online message boards. Hopefully, I did well. I will find out next week.

I would not use the word fun to describe taking four tests in one week. However, it was definitely manageable with a little planning. Studying for tests is made a lot easier if it is started about a week or a half of week before the test date. Just a thought.
