Some people seem to have no extra work on their plate, while the rest of us are up to our necks in test prep, paper writing, and presentation practice. Regardless of how much we have to do, somebody around us always has more or somehow less. So, lets here from a few Folks of \u2018Noke about what they are doing this midterm season, and take a look behind the scenes at how they are coping with the workload during the busiest time of the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dani Hardter 2025<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have a take home German midterm that they\u2019re making us take online and that is literally it! No, I have another, there is a mastery day in my math 111 but that\u2019s not even a midterm. There are too many people that are walking in and out of the library for me to focus so I just do everything from my room. When my roommate and I are both working it\u2019s fine but if one of us is working and the other one isn\u2019t then it gets a little chaotic. Honestly learning how to organize and not study at the last minute was the biggest thing because I used to not study in high school, and it was fine but then I got to college, and you must study at least a few days in advance. At the very least!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John Wallace Schultz 2024<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think I have about three midterms and one project that are all set for next week. I\u2019m usually really prepared I just like to study slowly and surely. I usually feel confident about tests which is ironic because I\u2019m taking a science class and I have no idea what I\u2019m doing yet I\u2019m doing really well in it! I would say that I really like to study ahead and if I procrastinate I end up just freaking myself out. I like to study in one of two places. Either in Fintel, in the silent study rooms, or outside of Colket where you can overlook the field. It\u2019s really nice. As long as you always start early with your prep you\u2019ll be fine!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Georgia Slappey 2025<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I honestly cannot tell you what I have coming up next week, none of my professors have really been talking about anything. I do have one test for Environmental Sciences though. I&#8217;m excited, it\u2019s my major so I think I&#8217;m good. My favorite place to study on campus is definitely Olin Hall. There is like this little triangle area where there are two comfy chairs and that\u2019s my study spot. The one piece advice I wish I had been given last semester is that it\u2019s really not the end of the world. Just take a deep breath and just do it!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Sydney Young We all know that midterms can be a stressful time of the year.
