Swallow Sponge Capsule

Next year, I come into preparatory classes Commercial ...

For me, it was true in June 2003 (I'm getting old!)
I had already given some advice in a previous article, rather focused on the topic "how to spend the holiday with terminal and entered into preparatory classes " http://prepa-commerciale.blogspot.com/2007/08/que-faire-pendant-les-vacances.html

I'll try to make some additional ideas to start those two years. Next year, coming ...

1. No panic. If you have been accepted in a preparation is that we have seen that you had the required level, other students are neither robots nor geniuses, just people like you.
2. No competition. The "spirit of competition", which means that we will not share info with classmates, it's stupid and it leads nowhere. There are of course prepared rankings, so it must be taken into account, but not must not be against each other. I think that class solidarity is much more likely to succeed globally (and including yourself).
3. No demoralization to the first (very) bad grade. We will tell you, you said, in prepared notes are just the reflection of work done at some point. They do not judge your value and are here to help assess your strengths and your weaknesses. In addition, the notation in class preparation is slightly different from the school: teachers are trying to spread the highest scores from 0 to 20 so that students can compare themselves to the class more easily (if everyone has between 10 and 12, not easy to know if we really have a successful ...); finally, remember, you are now in the same class with 25 other good / very good students of final year, the level is necessarily above.
4. No work late at night . Doubtless some isolated cases may you say they have been very successful in revising their math class until 2 am, personally I think it's a very bad idea: most people need 8 hours of sleep per night to be in the next day. I am sure we win a lot more to have a sharp mind during the course and take half an hour to read it again later in the day, rather than sleep in class and then spend several hours.
5. Do not cram your courses . You may soon be overwhelmed! In my experience, I advise you to invest upon re-entry of (very) large packages and in double copies of lever arch files of all colors, one for each subject (I've completed two per year in math!). Try as much as possible to read and store the same night your courses, history of always being updated. The calendar will impose Kohll then never stay more than a few days without each test.
6. Remember to live! The work of preparation is a big investment of time and energy, do not deprive yourself of the few pleasures that could make your day: a film session occasionally, a cartoon, a jog, a batch of cookies (one of these days I'll add the recipe for cookies on Friday afternoon, two hours between the hours of math and German), or other thing. I also have already written an article on the subject, but we emphasize this enough: we must succeed to arrange some time for himself to hold out until the end!

The list is probably longer, I put that in my view is essential.
Start the new year with confidence, motivation, and desire to succeed. This is the first step to success!
