- Improve conceptual clarity, avoid rote learning – You would be a more confident person while facing the exam if you are thorough with the concepts. However, if your conceptual base is weak and you resort to rote learning, it would build up stress since you are not sure whether you would be able to grasp the essence of the question paper.
- Plan your study, avoid last-minute preparation - Plan your studies in advance. Make a detailed time table and try as much as possible to adhere to it. Procrastination always tends to build up stress. Remember, if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.
- Take short breaks while studying - Do not study continuously for long hours at a stretch since you may not be able to entirely assimilate what you have studied after a point of time. This is due to fatigue which sets in after a certain point of time, indicating that this is the time to break.
- Don’t lose out on your sleep – Do not stretch your study time by cutting short your night sleep. It is very important that you have a good night sleep for at least 6 hours so that you get rejuvenated in the morning for the next day’s preparation.
- Think positive – Avoid any sort of negative thoughts of not performing well in the examination since this may affect your preparation as well as your performance in the examination. Thinking positive will definitely help you to adopt the right approach towards examination. When your mind is at peace, without any anxiety, you would be in a position to perform better.
- Meditate and Exercise – Relax by practising deep breathing, meditation and yoga. Physical and Mental exercises will help to reduce stress.
- Eat healthy – You must stay healthy by eating good food and avoiding junk. Do not skip meals for the sake of saving time for studying. It is essential that you do not fall sick at the time of examination.
ALL THE BEST ... ALL IZZZ WELL..
