How to Study for a Russian Final

1. Review concepts
2. Draw pictures to illustrate concepts
3. Look at pictures and laugh
4. Disregard stares of people in study group
5. Repeat

My favorite study topic: Prefixed Verbs of Motion

При- arrival

У- departure

В- enter

Вы- exit

Под- approach

От- move away
