I have kind off like an exam in math tomorrow, our courses each last one semester. I passed my three years before these which A in every subject except three without studying. So I'm not used to it at all and now when I really need to study I just can't....
How do you cope with this?
What are your tips to studying? Specially math since it's really not facts but just, yeah calculation and problem solving.
How do I avoid procrastination?

Going to a library to study works for me when I really have to study. Uni or gymnasium?

I don't know what math class it is, but the best "studying" for a math test consists of doing lots of practice problems, in my experience.

Specifically practice tests. Man up, find some old exams and do them.

High School is where Mathematics starts getting difficult. I was a maths genius all the way up to 9th grade and I actually never did any homework in that subject up to that point. It was pretty funny actually, the days before our maths exams, everybody in class would freak out, but for me, those few days was like a semi-vacation for me. I would just play games all day when I got home, and I still got the highest grade most of the time. When I didn't it was mostly because I had skipped school.

Mathematics is mostly about effort and concentration. People who are competitive tend to excel at it as long as the pace is fairly low, because when you're in class, you don't get distracted as easily. That's why it was easy for me. I never fooled around in class, so I picked up things quickly, and I also worked at a faster pace, finishing the assignments quicker.
However, when I started high school, that was not enough anymore. I had to study at home occasionally to keep up with the pace.

Anyway, although the courses get progressively harder, mathematics D in the swedish high school is where it gets really hard. If you're reading that course, try to find ways to put in some extra effort, because that course is the foundation for university level mathematics.

Huh? If you can do it you understand it. If you don't understand, look through your notes and do more problems.

You in the gymnasium after the class and study til it closes (its pretty empty after 16:00). Although I had the same problem as you a year ago. Which line are you studying?

Usually for the finals, just redo all the previous exams and quizzes... Whatever problems you have difficulty with, look through the textbook for more questions related to that. If you dont concepts/theorems, theres always Khan Academy and other educational material!
