Sure, lots. Unfortunately, if your exam is this Tuesday and calculus still isn't intuitive to you, it might be too late. My only advice is that you solve as many problems as you can. A study guide with worked problems should also be helpful. I also agree with Leobor's advice: Don't overdo it the day before the exam.

Try to get a group of people together tonight to study for a few hours, but don't study past 10PM, you'll just be burned out. Before the test, do a quick once over of all your notes. Also, go in CONFIDENT, being confident really helps you through rough sitautions where you have a guess. If you go in thinking you're going to bomb, you'll shut down the minute you see something you don't immediatly remember.

So how did the calculus test go? I hope the forum's moral support helped a little at least!

Way to go Mettalican!

Maths is too long ago, but if anybody ever needs any help in French (or Dutch, though that's unlikely), feel free to let me know!
