Kia Ora! This week as well as last week has been pretty hectic. So far, I've had my marketing midterm last week and let me tell you...it was not as bad provided you studied well and understand the content. Here are some tips before heading to your first exam at UOA! 1. Know the location of your test room! Since the classes here have so much people, various test rooms are allocated so students won't be cramped in the lecture hall when taking their test. Depending on the letter of your last name, you may or may not be sitting in the lecture hall for the test. For myself, I ended up heading to a different building to take my test. I went there 30 minutes early and I ended up panicking since I almost could not find my testing room. So unless you know where your testing room is, be sure to allocate time to finding it! 2. Reading Time Reading time was really weird for me since we don't have this at UH. Before you start the exam, you are allowed to look over the test and ask any questions you may have. However, you are not allowed to write in any shape or form. After that time period is up, you are on your own. Since my test was a written exam, it bothered me that I wasn't even allowed to brainstorm ideas on paper so I sat there just trying to figure out what to write in my head. 3. Just study!!!!! When it came to studying for this marketing test, I definitely used Quizlet and made sure to study everything I was given in at least four days in advance. That way, my brain could retain all the information. After taking this written test, I was relieved to say that the questions were fair game and I was able to get all my answers written on that paper with only ten seconds to spare! Now that I've finished one exam, I've got my Kapa Haka exam and my intimidating finance exam coming up next week! A lot of this week has been dedicated to finance since some of the content is still new to me! However, I won't let that stop me from getting a good grade! Additionally, I have practiced Kapa Haka everyday which includes doing poi drills! Poi requires lots of wrist movement to handle and is similarly used in some hula dances back home. Here is a picture of it below!! Wish me luck on the rest of my midterms!!
