Finals

How many of you are already studying for your finals? I have started, but am not sure exactly what to expect. I have had tests this semester, but not a FINAL? I am not a good test taker to begin with. I know the material, I can read it over and over again, but when I sit down at the desk, with my pencil in hand and the scantron, my mind just draws a blank, or at least a partial blank. I will finish the test, think okay, I did alright, and when I get the test back it will be a low C or high B. What am I doing wrong? When I do the work that goes along with the preperation, I make A's, and I understand the concept, but I dont like the tests. So my mom says that I need to read over all of the material again, make notes, ask questions, or write questions that I would ask, then find the answers. Do you think that would help? Is there help for bad test taking? I think maybe I should Google this. On the bright side, I have almost made it through my first semester of college, and I feel like I have done alright, my grades will tell. There have been struggles, and triumphs and a lot of self growth. I can do this, and maybe I will even look forward to next semester, but right now, I am just looking forward to winter break. Bring on the fire and hot chocolate, that is if I don't find that job.
