<p>How does one study for a philosophy exam?? I’m getting anxious just thinking about it. </p>
<p>I’ve done all the readings, aced all the quizzes, and am now trying to rewrite all my notes and put together quiz questions for a practice test, but what else can I do? </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Has your professor told you how your exam is going to be set up? Mine were particularly difficult- one or two questions that were based on the readings (just pick one) and write a 2+ page essay on it. Basically, you had to be familiar with the readings to do well on them but they focused a lot on doing your own thinking and interpretation.</p>
<p>It sounds like you’re relatively well prepared, so I’ll just parrot back some cliche advice: don’t stay up all night studying (to be well rested for the exam), don’t panic (because panic = forgetting things), and go into the exam well fed and with a bottle of water.</p>
