Default Abnormal Psychology Class Last Minute HELP

Hello all, as some of you know I totally bombed my last 2 semesters of school (at my local communuty college). So LONG story short, my instructor allowed me back into his class saying I could take the final and my grade would be based on just that (and another test I took a year ago) WELL, HELLO the final is this Tuesday and I never even opened my book OR attended a "full" lecture. Apparently he thinks I could cram it all into 3 days, haha!I feel alot of Abnormal Psy is already self-explanatory. I need at least an 80 on this to "just" pass.

The HELP I need is...best to study for this? Its going to be 80 questions on the chapters on sexual abuse, mood disorders/suicide, schizophrenia, childhood adolescence. I cannot focus on the reading material, I keep getting bored and my mind starts wandering into wedding plans (getting married in 2 weeks-YIKES). I need to listen to something to help me remember. Any free downloads or flash cards, anything interactive I could do??? I was looking for audio chapter downloads, can't find any! I can't read this book!!


THANKS!

Does your text have a web site you can go to? If not, try this one:
Comer, Abnormal Psychology 5e

The site offers flashcards and quizzes for each of the chapters, several of which are related to the topics you mentioned.

However....it's probably best if you study from the materials your professor suggested. Abnormal psych can be very tricky...there is a great deal to remember. But if you absolutely feel you don't have it in you to review the book, try the web site above. Good luck, and congratulations on your upcoming marriage!
