I had my first test this semester a couple of hours ago. It was... exciting.
During summer school, I had a very difficult time taking notes during lecture, so once again, I tried to pay attention and hoped to remember.
Summer school went poorly.
Thinking that I would still have difficulty taking notes, I continued to try to pay attention and hoped to remember, but I recorded lectures on my laptop.
Apparently, my laptop does that as well as I pay attention.
Also, when the professors asked for notetakers, I asked if I could have access to those, but that ended when they realized that I had not gone through the Disability Department. I cannot, I do not have an actual diagnosis, although the VA gave me a prescription, so hopefully I can use whatever diagnosis they gave me.
The study guide for today's test was based on the notes that I did not take. I asked my friend about it, they just shrugged, so I started finding stuff through the Internet. After a little while, I found a large set of flashcard made by a girl who had attended my school, so I used that for the rest of my study guide, sent it to my friends, and they used it, providing a few corrections.
I made my own on-line flashcards and spent several hours today studying, but it seemed fruitless, so I rewrote my notes a couple of time.
I only felt that I knew the answers to a fraction of the questions.
People tell me all kinds of things, but I put a lot of time into studying. I mostly ignored girls. They have been a huge distraction in the past.
This really does not seem to be working for me.
