Using My Bullet Journal to Prepare for Final Exams in 2019 (School Bullet Journal Update #4)

Happy exam season, my friends! Studying for finals is such a drag, but at least it can be a whole lot easier if you plan ahead. In today’s post, I’ll be walking you through the bullet journal spreads I’ve set up to help me study for finals and, hopefully, be as low-stress as possible in these chaotic next few weeks.

Study Calendar

Of the three spreads I’ve made for final exams this year, the study calendar is the one that I think will be the most helpful. It’s a calendar of the next three weeks, with all of my exams marked.

There are little lists at the bottom of all the things I need to do to study, and sometime in the next few days, I’ll distribute all these tasks between the days on the calendar (written in the colors corresponding to each class) so I’ll have a plan for what I’m going to study each day.

Note that the first column of the calendar is Monday, and there’s a single column for all of the weekend days (including Friday, because that’s what works best for my purposes).

Review Week Spread

My school has a week of exam review during the four days after Memorial Day, so I made a four-day weekly spread for review week. I left a lot of empty space at the bottom of the spread so I can jot down notes about the exams, things I need to ask teachers, etc.

Exam Week Schedule

My last spread, and also a very important one, is my exam week schedule. I’ve included all four of my exams (all highlighted), train times, and any other important times.

I hope this was helpful, or at least interesting for some of you! If you have any thoughts about prepping for exams with a bullet journal, or general tips for taking final exams, please feel free to let me know in the comments.
