Will it work?

I ain't great with exams. But I hope to change that in an year's time. How? Okay, this is still on experimental basis and actual validity may be known/learnt only after implementation followed by results.

There are 6 papers with gap of 2 days only between 1st and 2nd paper. 2nd till 6th are back to back. What's the objective? Earliest objective was to do best. But the way I am geared up, it would be a dream to survive it. But then if I am to dream, I would still want to dream to come out best. Yeah, not giving up. Not yet. Never, for that matter :)

So how do I do it now? I mean, the preparation part. I had some initial plans which seemed okay as was repeated by one of my friend in his/her suggestion to me. The plan was to prepare in the reverse order 6th to 1st. Second plan that I had was based upon the subjects overlap. For example, I am seeing overlap of some topics between Organizational Behavior & Principles of Management; Quantitative Techniques & Cost Management; Financial Accounting & Business Law. That was to group the studies of subjects as per the overlapping thing. That unfortunately is opposite of the earlier plan (6th to 1st wala) as 1st and 6th subject happen to share the overlap. None the less, I am still going on with the overlapping thing because that coincides with my very first objective. If I am to have holistic view of everything that matters and applications of it in proper way then I need to understand how different tools of trade are going to fit with each other. Another thing to remember is that I doubt if I would be able to revisit these subjects post exams due to ongoing constraints. I therefore have to do the best learning not just for paper but also for practical knowledge of these things for future also. I don't want this thing to be just the regular college student experience. I want to assimilate these things into me, to be able to apply them and practice them.

Sorry for digressing. I ended up talking about long term objective mixed with the current objective at hand :P

Coming back to the preparation part. I have decided to go about reading the planning and management by objective chapters first to understand how to plan even for preparing for exam.

What happens next, will be let known after 20th. Till then Sayonara :)
