How To Study & Prepare For Finals Week, According To Your Zodiac Sign
Get the most out of your study session.
pexels Finals week is one of the most stressful events for any student. As if you didn't have a hard enough time getting to this point, now you have to take all the exams for it in the span of a week.
Studying can be extremely hard while you're still attending classes and trying to get enough studying for each course. Of course, you will make yourself sit down and study, even if it's to cram a few hours before taking (and acing) that final exam.
Everyone has a different learning style.
Finding out what yours is is the first step to making sure your study session is efficient. Matching that with your zodiac sign will take it a step further and ensure that you remember everything you've studied.
You might think you already have a tried and true routine when it comes to studying, whether it be listening to classical music or chewing the same flavor of gum while taking the test. However, looking even further into yourself will unlock secrets about studying that work even better.
Whether your brave enough to reach out to the professor for extra help like the Aries or an organized Leo who thrives with color-coded notes, matching your learning style to your zodiac will improve your studying forever.
Here's how each horoscope sign studies best for final exam week, for each zodiac sign in astrology.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
As the natural leader, you can take this and use it to your advantage by starting your own study group. Other leaders and those who are naturally driven will gravitate towards you and you'll quickly get a team of superminds that can help you study and cover more topics than you could alone.
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Turn your stubbornness into consistency and persistence and study a little content every day. Breaking it up will help you avoid overloading your brain. Your desire to meet your goals will push you to finish and make sure you don't give up when you hit a particularly hard chapter. Try using flashcards to study, the continuous repetition will give you a boost on your memory.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
We know that you crave change. You can't stay in one place too long, so change up your study environment. Going from the library to a coffee shop and then maybe even a part of campus you've never been to. The change in scenery will re-energize you and shrink the risk of you getting bored and beginning to procrastinate.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers are extremely connected to friends and family. This means you probably take more social media breaks while studying than other signs. Leave your phone on silent and out of reach while studying to resist those urges. It also helps to take a little social media detox for a few days before finals week starts so that you can get used to not having a phone on you all the time.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Don't let your confidence get the best of you! If you're struggling in a certain area reach out and ask for help. Take advantage of office hours and reach out to anyone in your class who might be helpful. If you start to feel overwhelmed, take a break to talk to a friend or get a snack. Don't let your pride ruin your grade!
VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Take advantage of your organization skills during this time. Work on grouping everything you want to study in a logical way so that you can get the most out of your memory. Use flash cards, high lighters, sticky notes, anything you need to be able to get it down.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
As a Libra, you crave balance. You need to remember that you need sleep. A stressed out Libra is a useless Libra. Take your time and take your time and take breaks when you need. Pulling an all-nighter a few nights in a row may be tempting but it'll sabotage your chance at success.
SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
You are a passionate being, the music you listen to while studying should match that. If lyrics distract you then try movie soundtracks like The Dark Night, Harry Potter or Star Wars. All of this will give you the boosts you need and not put you to sleep.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
A social butterfly like you is going to be craving time with friends while everyone is busy studying. Try a study group instead of solo studying so that you don't lose your mind while studying alone. Also, don't forget to make some time for regular hangouts so that you don't go crazy.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Don't let your realist point of view put a downer on your study session. While things get intimidating, rely on positivity to avoid falling into a pit of despair. Keep a calm and collected state of mind, and stay positive. If you can do that while studying, you can ace your finals.
AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
You're creative, make your notes creative. Little doodles, different colored pens, and a fun notebook will not only motivate you to study but make sure you retain what you read. Putting on music you like will also give you that extra boost of motivation to get stuff done.
PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Teaching is how you learn. Offer to help friends learn the content and anything they're having trouble with. Teaching will help reinforce what you're learning, and explaining the concept will help you understand it more clearly.
