How to prepare for examinations
An exam tests more than your knowledge. It tests your mental discipline and emotional stability too. Some students occasionally collapse under the threat of exams. Fear makes them nervous, or they suddenly become sick. This may be only a psychological excuse, a subconscious way of avoiding personal responsibility for not having prepared properly. To avoid this disease of test anxiety, try the following pre******ion.
Physical preparation
If you have studied properly, there should be no reason to cram at the last minute. It is much wiser to get a good night's sleep than to stay up till the early hours of the morning and then be half awake during the exam. Health is an important factor for in taking successful exams. Avoid strain and fatigue by eating regularly and getting the usual amount of sleep. The best preparation the night before the exam is to review briefly the material that you have reviewed during the preceding days. Then relax, preferably by going to be early.
Emotional preparation
Like your body, your mind needs to be in a good state of health also. If you face an emotional block or a mental blackout, you should reexamine your study habits. Allow yourself enough time to review so that there are no last-minute regrets and tensions. Immediately, before the exam relax. It's too late to do anything else. Don’t waste energy by worrying, disputing small details with friends, or suddenly trying to memorize something. The pressure will merely upset you. Simply, be confident that you have done and will do your best. It is understandable that you might become nervous and tense, but you should realize that the testing situation occurs throughout life and is not peculiar to school life alone.
Review preparation
1. As early as possible, begin to plan your time for review. Arrange your schedule so that you have enough time to continue your regular studies, but begin to add hours here and there for a careful, conscientious review. Several short review periods are more effective that one long session.
2. To review does not mean to reread the ****book or to memorize the facts and formulas at the last minute. If you have studied properly you should need only to look though your notes or the underlined parts of your ****book. From this perspective, summarize the main facts, trends and arguments. Do not waste time to review materials you fully understand except to relate them to other materials. Concentrate your time and attention on the material you are not sure of
3. It is practical to study for an exam in the same way you expect to take the exam. Therefore, there is good reason to know the kind of exam your teacher plans to give so that you can anticipate the kind if not the exact content, of questions. In other words, review the material in the same way in which you expect to use it.
4. After you have reviewed often and briefly during the preceding days, quickly review all the material the night before the exam. Then go to bed, relaxed and confident. The next morning you might want to go over some material briefly, but don’t expect to learn anything new. It's too late for that.
