The clock is ticking and I am numb

I think you should reevaluate your priorities. You're essentially going into college without a plan, also if you don't care about the test you may want to ask why.

 

You've still got time; find out what's on the test and get good at it.

 

First start pinpointing exactly what you need to do and what you need to revise for for your subjects. After that, break down those into smaller steps- eg, read one chapter of this, make notes on this section of that, practice questions for this. Put all of these into a timetable and a to-do list, so you do a little a day- not too much that you're overworked- but you still make steady progress.

 

First of all, don't beat yourself up for procrastinating. We all do it. That being said, it seems to ne that you need to give some thought to what interests you. Are you good at explaining things to others and helping them to learn? Would teaching interest you? Are you the one that everyone comes to with their problems? Perhaps you'd be happy as a counselor. Do computers and technology fascinate you? This stage is not about "selecting a career" but about getting to know yourself, what holds your interest, what gets you excited and happy. If you have a goal, it's much easier to focus.

From your post, you sound like a thoughtful and intelligent person. Three months is a good chunk of study time, and I have no doubt that you can ace this test if you try. But first, spend a little time exploring you...and Good luck!

 

Everyone procrastinates. As others have stated, maybe a lack of clear goals to work for is making you apathetic. Try listing your goals for a month from now, six months from now, a year from now, five years from now and ten years from now. Where do you see yourself? What do you see yourself doing? What do you think you'll be happy doing? This will help you start thinking about the things you want to work for as you prepare for your exams and college.

 

Maybe you don't really want to go down this career path?
If you do, time to buckle down. I'm a big believer in making
study notes. It really helped me understand and remember stuff.
Focus on main points and important information AND things you think
will very likely be on the test.

I would do study notes, review them the night before and the morning of the exam,
walk into the exam room and let my brain take over.

Start writing down a few study notes today. No more fiddling around!

 

Trust me I've been there! What might help is to start by writing down what exactly you need to do and creating a schedule leading up to the exam. Put it up somewhere you can see it so you literally can't avoid it!
