How does one get good EXAM grades?

im the same way. good grades in english, history etc, but have never been good at math. you just have to study twice as long its really the only way. you eventually will learn it but it sucks having to. if your not opposed to making life a little easier and you can use graphing calculators on your tests, not only are there like hundreds of free downloadable programs that do everything for you but theres a program called notefolio where you can write like a 6 page paper on your computer and then put it on the calculator. real nice to have for math equations or chemical formulas.
