EXAM PREP
- Believe in yourself and don’t worry excessively.
- Don’t try to be perfect. Aim to do your best but do recognize that none of us can be perfect all of the time.
- Take steps to overcome problems. Talk to your professor or ask your classmates if you have a question about the exam.
- Don’t keep things bottled up. Confiding in someone is a great way to alleviate stress and worry.
- Keep things in perspective. Interrupt negative thoughts with positive ones and actively challenge your irrational thoughts.
- Plan your study time with study sessions about 50 minutes long separated by 5 – 10-minute breaks.
- Try to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Tiredness increases anxiety. Resilience is helped by:
- exercise
- positive thoughts
- healthy diet
- regular and adequate sleep
- Get accurate information about the exam date, time, and location as well as what you can/should take into the exam.
- Plan. Rest well the night before. Arrive at the exam location early.
- Avoid bad things. Give coffee and other stimulants a miss. Avoid other people or things that may disturb your self-confidence, focus and level of relaxation.
