Should I revise for an open book exam?I have a resit in a weeks time which is an open book exam. I didn't sit the exam the first time for reasons I cba in explaining.
I had another open book exam back in May and managed to pass... this was without attending even one of the 14 lectures for that module and with no revision whatsoever... I basically just copied all the lecture notes from the slides and took them into the exam and passed... lol.
The thing is, I have another resit in two weeks time which requires a lot of preparation and my focus is on that, I want to remain focussed on revising for that instead of this open book exam.
Do you think I will be able to repeat what I did in the earlier exam in this one? just copy all the lecture slides, take them into the exam and essentially copy away? -

Re: Should I revise for an open book exam?Open book exams. I wish my life was as easy as yours. You should still do some revision, but then again you didn't do so last time and seem to have already decided you're not going to again. At least familiarise yourself with where in the book key bits of information lie..
