Mid years in 4 days! Any advice/tips?

I've got mid years in 4 days. Yeah. I know, i was just lazing about all these days and today i got the mood. I got the seriousness. Ok, so anyway., i need to cram.


I'm planning to record important points on a tape recorder and play it to sleep..(if i manage to buy it)


and mind-maps i find are extremely time-consuming and because i draw badly i keep re-doing and end up wasting loads of time.


I try to write out my own notes and write out questions. I also test my friends online. What else can i do? I don't favour history and geog especially with boring topics about pollution and war and immigrants. I also might need help in science and Home Econs.


Is there any better way to cram? =P =))) I will try my best to do well. Please don't discourage me. I know i can do this with a little help.Mid years in 4 days! Any advice/tips?
I was also a procrastinator all through high school and college.


Tips:


1. I used to write down ';key'; words and phrases and study off them.


2. Do a brain storm for instance: Pollution (goes in the middle) and then off of it- cars, electricity, coal, recycle-


then you do more ';sub'; categories off those- for instance off cars you could put gas, carbon dioxide, hybrid, alternative methods of transpartation...ect...hopefully you understand.


3. do mini quizzes on yourself- or have family/friends quiz you


4. post e notes...on your mirrors, on your bathroom door, computer (so when your doing YA you can study), fridge (you have to get answers right before you can get anything out)!





Hope these helped. And from one procrastinator to another, you should always start early....Yeah right! LOL.Mid years in 4 days! Any advice/tips?
