Harry
Hey, Roland. Have you started preparing for the math test?
Roland
Not really. I’ll study the night before.
Harry
Don’t you think it’s better to start at least five days earlier?
Roland
I get that, but cramming works best for me. It helps me remember things better. Plus, I don’t want to lose sleep over several nights.
Harry
I see, but I prefer studying little by little. It keeps the lessons fresh in my mind and helps me feel more organized.
Roland
That makes sense, but I like taking notes first and then reviewing everything in one go. It keeps me focused.
Harry
That’s true. In the end, giving full attention while studying is the most important thing.
Roland
Agreed! Let’s both do our best to pass the test.
Harry
Good luck!
Roland
Thanks! Same to you!
