How would I "cheat" on an exam?

That was my experience too. By the time I had written, and re-written the sheet, I didn't need it any more.

Also, if I couldn't figure out how to distill the entire course onto a single sheet of paper, I was going to get killed on the exam. That's one reason why I majored in math and physics.

Wish we were allowed cheat sheets for our physics exams, would have made things much easier!

(regardless of how many times I write down some of the equations they just won't stick)

Never seen the cheat-sheet thing done over here :(
 
the idea of the notecard is that you will learn the information while STUDYING IT to find what to put on ur notecard..

i was allowed a notecard very often in highschool but never needed one (i'm an excellent test taker) but i saw so many kids using them as crutches.. and spending hours and hours making them ... whats the point?

spend less time agonizing over how to take advantage of the small concession givin to you and get some studying done..
