I realize that this is really a matter of personal preference... but i can never decide, which way will help me retain information better. . i can either study until about 4 am, or i can go to bed soon and wake up early in the morning to study. I feel like if i stay up and study till the early morning, i might be able to retain more of the information.

Your best bet would be to get a good nights rest. brain experts state that you retain more information if you are rested than you would if you were exhausted.
Good luck on your test

I agree with you. Sometimes you have to pull an all-nighter. If that is your first class, and you study until 3 or 4 AM, then you should get suffiicient sleep. Just study and give yourself 5-10 minute breaks, and then sleep when you feel your mind can't retain anymore. In the morning, review your notes and eat a good breakfast. I know you already know this, but next time start earlier!
Good luck. :)

If I were you I'd go to bed and get an early start. But if you're nervous and feel like you can't sleep, study for a few more hours and then go to bed and try to relax. Set your alarm for a decent time, and if you're still not sure, go over everything before the test. Believe in yourself and remember that you will do fine. Try and get some sleep though, it will help you concentrate.

In my psychology class my professor said that it's better to wake up early and study in the morning.

well usually i study right before bed. believe it or not some of that information sticks with you during the night. and then when i wake up i study again.
it works for me. hopefully for you too.
unless you dont like the idea.
but anyways, i hope i helped.
