I have a test tomorrow and I studied last night and this morning and I'm studying tonight.But I can't seem to remember everything. On the test I have to write everything in order and there's thirteen steps to remember and the steps ain't short.
Anybody have any studying tips?

U are so right. The shroomery calls for me when I'm studying. I've studying this away from it to tho.
-Flashcards are a good idea. I just don't think I'm gonna remember it all good enough to write them from memory. I've never been able to do that with anything. I'll pass tho. I haven't lost a point yet I have a 100% so far. But I just started.

For me, it's flash cards.
Every time I had an exam I would fill 3x5's with the information I needed and carry them around for days beforehand.

Write it down on a sheet of paper, and then try to write it from memory on another. Only look at the first one if you have to. Repeat until flawless.

Yea I should have done that days ago then.
So I think I'll do what blewmeanie said and write em down since I don't have index cards.
Actually I think I do have index cards.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Amphetamines, coffee and lots of cigarettes.
Note cards also help.

Long story. Family issues sums it up pretty well, though.
