If a student checks preparation only on the final exam day, what is the self-monitoring problem?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Late review
Self-monitoring is useful only when it provides enough time for corrective action. Checking on the last day may reveal missing topics or weak skills, but there is little time left to practise and revise them. This is late review. The issue is not that review is useless; it is that the review was postponed beyond the most useful point.
