Essay exam… WTH??

Memorised my way through A-Levels. Content wasn’t heavy, mostly structured through Point, Evaluation. Easy.

Got into a decent university for Psychology!

First year university, open book. Great!

Now next month, I’ve got five closed book unseen essay question exams. No idea how to start - I’d say one module for a semester is equivalent to a whole A-Level (2 years) worth of content. Content is not staying in my brain just because of the sheer volume of it, I’ve tried mind maps, flashcards, rewriting notes… nothing makes it stick and I’m stumped when I blurt.

P.s.

Being assessed for ADHD next week…
