(Other useful strategies not mentioned)

* Watch video's on Khan Academy/youtube * Use Wolfram Alpha to confirm/deny yr solutions * Get a tutor who can explictly show you how they approach solving any arbitrary problem you bring them * Accumulate a list of math tricks that you can use and how to use them (example: how to long divide polynomials) * Print out old exams and pretend to take them ~3 days before final * Rewrite your lecture with each example problem on it's own page(s) * Create an index on your lecture notes so that you can quickly identify what type of problems and topics were covered in each lecture. * Identify yr strenghts - we can't all be good at everything - knowing yr strenghts will give you a foundation of confidence to build upon * Queue cards for memorizing all those trig identities * Expect to spend a lot of time - this is not always possible

HN really needs 'bulletpoint' markup...

I'll see your bullets and raise you full markdown :)

HN can do

  * bullet
  * points

True. As you've noted elsewhere, this is intended for code. It doesn't work very well for text. You have to break the lines yourself rather than relying on the browser. If you break wrong, those with small viewports end up with nasty side scrolling.

That would be one way to do it.
