My college work is far too easy 😖 I hoped that once I was out of high school I'd have schoolwork that was actually challenging, but noo.......

here..it's even funnier
you don't care if you ace it or ot.
you pray just to pass it ✅ 🙁

god knows i was in that situation at least a couple of times during highschool. man..*shudders*

I can imagine 🙁

seriously...you should see how the european system works.
ours at least. it's impossible to ace everything.
it's simply too much to assimilate

Only telling the truth 😛

And quite honestly, I'd MUCH rather take hard courses that are actually challenging. Classes are so incredibly boring for me. Most people would rather take easy classes, I'd rather take hard ones 😬

I vote telepathy, that's what I did.

Wow, it's amazing how everyone on this forum seems to be some sort of scholastic genius who never has to study and just remembers everything they hear in class. Could it be that everyone here has NASA level intelligence? Or are some just lying or exaggerating? -"I never study" = "I only study 40 minutes a day before a test" perhaps?

Regardless, most of the time I suck ass at taking tests when I don't study. I don't just remember everything I need by simply hearing it said in class one time.

If your an average, normal fellow you'll probably want to study before a test, so just do it. You don't have to do much of it. Starting a week before the test study like 20 minutes each night leading up to the test. Then the night before or day of the test review and you should do fine.

Or you could just write the answers on your hands.

Work is the only trick to acing exams, unless they involve maths and you understand the equations.

The Major trick to Ace exams without studying is:

Hire a Pro !

You hire someone to take the exam for you. Im not refering to scholastic exams, but O level and A levels.

There are three main theories about acing exams without studying: either extreme intellects, for which I disagree, extreme memories, for which I disagree too, and finally, telepathy, which is the one theory I am ready to stick to.

There is no trick ❌

I never study...I just pay attention during class and I end up getting 90's. Or I just cheat.

Note that I did say I failed a class last year...stupid statistics, made no sense whatsoever to me. Calculus I was fine with. Stats...confused the hell out of me. Arg. I'm still mad about that and that was a year ago.

Its not that you might be a bad learner; maybe your teacher sucked at teaching. I know a couple of teachers who were given the boot for having a low success rate. I think JP's insight could help a little here.

I always study thats why I have a higher degree

Wow, I wish they did that with teachers here. My trig teacher in high school did not explain anything and I had to get my friend to teach me everything in that class.

Teach someone who's shittier at the course than you are.
