How do you cope with the stress of midterms?
“For midterms, I like to plan out what I need to study. Reviewing with my classmates is always a great help. If feel stressed, I go to Chipotle or Whole Foods with my friends.”

“If I’m feeling stressed during midterms, I take a break and go on Netflix. That definitely helps me de-stress.”
Brandon Stewart, junior legal studies major
“To be honest, I do not cope well with midterms, I usually just drink a lot of coffee, so I can power through my exams. Call it “coffee-coping,” if you like.”
Erika Cordovi, senior legal studies major
“This might be weird, but when I’m stressed I like to read black history, because I find it soothing.”
JoVonte Woods, senior criminal justice major
“During midterms, I go to Starbucks a lot to cope with stress, and if that does not work, I eat a cookie or go play basketball.”

“I make sure that I do not wait until the last minute to study, and if I get overwhelmed, to relieve stress, I go to a party or head to the beach.”
