Beat the Anxiety in Exams
Keep Busy
Before
your exam, worrying and thinking too much about what is ahead of you can
sometimes make your anxiety worse. An ideal way to combat this is to take your
mind off it by finding something to do. Apollon Leontas, a student from the UK,
offers the following advice: ‘Take a walk in the park, or try drawing or
painting to reduce stress and relax your mind. Half an hour of physical
exercise is also another way to release tension. Lying down and listening to
music can also be a great way to keep your mind off the exams.
Get Together
If you
can, revising in a group can really help, and will remind you that you’re not
the only one facing the exams. ‘Instead of revising alone get together with a
group of friends,’ says Maham Farooqui, a student from Pakistan. ‘Try and meet
weekly and set targets for the following week, for example choose two subject
areas to study. Then you can test each other and all attempt past paper
questions on those topics. This helps to make you feel really confident.’
