This is what I have discovered.  Read over the material in the book or your notes from class (as soon after the class as possible).  Have a small tape recorder next to you and turn it on while you say in your own words the important things to remember to do well in the test.   Once you have the tape, listen to it several times especially times that are available as multitask times (ie.  while driving the car, walking, jogging, working out.  You can even listen when you want to take a nap.  Just start listening and go ahead and fall asleep if you want, it can't hurt as long as you listen to your own tape as many times as possible.  If the lectures are recordable then you can also make a tape of the instructors lecture.  Listen a zillion times and you will have the stuff practically memorized with almost no effort.

Write about something you know, and dont try to use big words if they aren't necessary.  Use a great hook at the beginning but it's just an essay dont get carried away, just stay away from "Have you ever heard about......Well I'm going to tell you about...." or stupid introductions like that.  Make sure you use transitions in between paragraphs.  the last sentence of a paragraph should relate to the first sentence in the next paragraph.  \ndepending on the college, most have a writing center that have people there to help you get your ideas out on paper.  I suggest going there if you need help in the technical aspect of how to write it, if it is ideas on an open essay (you pick the topic) then just think about something you truely enjoy or are knowledgable about.

No, an essay is not the same as speech notes. Use your speech notes to prepare a graphic organizer. Write the speech from the graphic organizer.

Citations can be located in the text or at the end of the work in a bibliography. It can be difficult to figure out what needs to be credited. \nUse this rule of thumb: If you knew a piece of information before you started doing research, generally you do not need to credit it. You also do not need to cite well-known facts, such as dates, which can be found in many encyclopedias. All other information such as quotations, statistics, and ideas should always be cited in your papers. \n\nhttp://www.liu.edu/CWIS/CWP/library/workbook/evaluate.htm#citing\n\nGood luck\n\nKevin, Liverpool, England.

You just skip that part of the citation and go on. I was really confused about that, too when I just started writing papers.   A really good site to help with citations is www.citationmachine.net

Use an old paper that you got an A on and turn it into a speech.  I did this often in my speech class... I'd take an essay I had to write for english (with a good grade) and make a speech out of it.  Chose something you feel passionate about (this is important - because if you get lost during the speech, you can say anything that comes to mind)... write up an intro, three points, and a conclusion.  Simple.

It depends on if its MLA or APA style.  Go to any style manual , or any grammar cite such as Perdue Owl or University of NC Chapel Hill.  If you want to see a demonstration look up Style Ease or Dr. Paper.  Both of these places Sell formatting tools but they do show you how its done.  Style Ease actually will let you try a demonstration.
