Since this week began, I felt uncomfortable about the upcoming test on Saturday. Although, I have been studying for many hours non-stop for the time period I was given, I felt unprepared, unready. As I sat down to take the test, I began looking around, my pencils kept falling down, I had a hard time seeing, I forgot my lessons. During the test, I began to cry and immediately cried at my frustration as soon as the test was offically over. I began to ponder and relaized the questions on the exam weren't all too difficult, but my furstration on my lack of confidence, and relaxation had accomplished me nothing but a loss of time studying, working, money,not having too much sleep,etc.
I experienced nostalgia and remembered great advice that helped me pass my physics exmas/precalculus such as:
Look at what is straight ahead of you. Do not worry about the ones besides you. help the wearker, learn from the better. But I remembered none of this advice during the exam!

I WILL retake this test and today I already studied almost 3-4hours today after lunch.

I hope that you erudite, sagtacious people can proivde information, advice,experiences on how you were able to overcome a difficult exam,subject,calls,etc. How do you prepare the day before, the test-day,the week before specialized exams,relax, concentrate on what you have learned before,etc. Thank-you.

Take many practice test exams under test conditions, to get yourself used to the actual experience.

Good luck.

I AM SO AWSOME...

worked for me...


scored an 87 on my independent license exam

well, i have taken a few tests in my day, more than most. my general strategy is to do the bulk of studying the week before, so that the day before, i just do light review, and i mean light. i spend the day before doing something fun, go for a long run, eat a good meal, and go to bed early.
