Re: Exam approaches
- Load everything in your car tonight. Your reference material, calculator, writing utentsils, admission forms, everything. This way you don't have to worry about it all in the morning. (and bring two of everything)
- Make the trip to the test center today so you can be sure of the exact travel time and possible problems that may be encountered such as construction.
- Eat a lite breakfast, but do eat. And take some headache medication just before the test whether you have a headache or not. This will avoid having to stop during the test in the case you start to get one. (hit the bathroom too)
- try not to talk to anyone while waiting for the exam to begin. Someone will always make some comment about how "hard the tests are" or how "close they cam to passing the last time", etc.. This stuff doesn't help with confidence. Keep telling yourself that you own the test and keep focused on your plan.
- If you don't have a plan, make one today. Decide how long you will give yourself per question and how you will approach each question, meaning how many times you read it, if you are going to circle key words, etc... This will get you into a rhythm and flow through test at a controlled pace set by you, and not set by pressure or time constraints.
- Good Luck! And tell how you do!
