How to Copy with Exam Stress for your Final Exams
Do mock exams at home
One of
the best ways to overcome exam stress is to practice – and plenty of
it. That’s because one of the most common reasons for feeling stressed ahead of
exams is not being sure what to expect on the day, such as what questions
you’re likely to be asked, and how best to approach answering them.
Try to
find examples of past exam questions to get an idea of what topics have
previously come up.
Or, if
there aren’t any past exam questions available, consider what essay/assignment
titles you’ve been set by lecturers throughout the year. Have a think
about other questions that are similar to these.
It’s
especially helpful to try tackling mock exam questions on topics you’re less
confident about. This way, you can prepare plans and practice answering them,
in case they do come up in the exam.
By
practising how to approach answers on a range of topics, including your most
and least favourite ones, you’ll put yourself in a great position. It will help
you show exam markers how much you know and ace even the hardest exam
questions.
Make a revision timetable
This
is pretty closely related to the tip above. But we can’t emphasise enough how
taking a bit of time to get yourself in order will help you reduce exam stress.
As our
guide to becoming
organised rightly states, making a revision schedule and writing
to-do lists each day will keep you super prepared. They’ll make it easier
to get everything done – and on time.
Working
out a daily routine and sticking to it is also good for the soul. It
will help you feel a lot more in control of how your day pans out.
Remember
to factor in regular breaks. These will do you wonders. You could maybe
try having a break for at least 10 minutes every hour and a half or so, if not
more.
