While studying for exams is something that should occur throughout the semester, this module consists of strategies to implement during the last 4 weeks.

A follow up module called Exam Tactics describes the things you can do just before as well as during the exam itself.

The JCU Assessment and Exams website is also worth visiting to find out more about exam timetables, requirements and rules relating to things such as special consideration, deferred exams and so on. Take some time to checkout the section on Frequently Asked Questions about exams. You can also check your enrolment details and obtain a copy of your personal exam timetable at Students Online.
