Finals Week Stress

By Brittany Conolly ~
For students at Morningside College finals are approaching. As the school year is dwindling down students are beginning to pull all nighter’s studying, drinking massive amounts of coffee, and reading books previously not even opened. Finals are the finish line for the end of the semester. Students are almost to the end of the 2011-2012 school year.

For most students this is the most stressful time of the school year. When I asked Brittney Schindler how she relaxes and prepares for tests, she replied, “I lock myself in my room, and have complete silence. I turn off my phone, and only let myself have a half hour break from studying.”

Not all students do that same thing. Kelsey Nelson said, “I prepare by getting enough to eat and enough sleep. I study by studying a little at a time then taking a break. Finally I just repeat all the previous steps.” This is an easy way to not get too overwhelmed, and feel up to par when the days of finals week arrive.
