What I like to do an hour or two before an exam is to go through my outline and make just a 1-2 page summary with the main points from each section. I don't know if it works or not, but I feel like it jogs my memory.

If I don't know the material well enough a couple hours before, then those couple hours won't save me (that's my view on it). I know a lot of people study up until the last minute, but I find relaxing to be beneficial. If I study, I end up psyching myself out way too much.

I usually get up 3 hours before my exams, run through my outline from front to back just to get one last look of where everything is, and usually try to read through a model answer.

Last exam ever is my first 6 PM exam that is graded; not really sure what I'm going to do.
