I am a procrastinator and I put everyone else's needs before mine. I won't bore you with the details but it is easy to set aside my books to spend time with my grandchildren and/or children. I am working hard to "just do it." In addition to my advice above to schedule a test and then get to studying, make small goals for yourself. Otherwise it is a daunting project to consider. Look at it one class at a time and go from there. I don't know how to study either. I go thru the IC flashcards first, then supplementary information, then pre tests.
I just make notes and then notes of the first notes until I have at least enough memorized to pass the exam. Yeah, listen to me, the old sage, that has passed all of one exam. Let me get off my teeny little soapbox and defer to the veterans.
Cate,
I don't see how a veteran could have said it any better. Feel free to stand tall on that soap box grandma!
