Sounds like your doing a good job already, but what helps me is to see what the percentages of the points are going to be. The greater teh percent of points for certain types of problems, those areas I would concentrate on first (say 30% of the points are word problems, 30% are multichoice, and 40% are proofs, I would study a little more in proofs than the other areas).
Next, quickly go over the stuff you know, you already know it, so don't waste time trying to learn what you already know. With an 88% grade, I figure you just need to study the things that give you the most problems, once you get those down, the "A" is assured.

Without knowing why you have only an 88% (264/300) it's hardly possible at this late date to advise you on bettering your test score. You would be in a better position to know what material you are lacking. Correcting your previous tests would be a start.

purely because of the fact you're actually not so sturdy at Geometry does not propose you're doing something incorrect. that's purely that Algebra and Geometry are 2 very different styles of math, and for some human beings, one sort is far less stressful to understand than the different. in case you have extra of an algebraic techniques, i might propose which you attempt to circulate via each and each concept thouroughly because of the fact you may unlike memorizing issues. additionally, i might propose dealing with different theorems for proofs on your very final. circulate via each and each variety of polygon, its variety of stages, its quantity, its area, and so on. the simplest thank you to learn may be to circulate via your textbook (in case you have one) and notice what you recognize the least and attempt to perform a little final minute cramming. sturdy success!!!
