Created by Anastasia Melnushkina and Victoria Nigai.
Introduction
When a student does not know about the subject and is afraid of exams,
fear is quite natural. But sometimes a person is well prepared, but still feels
such a strong fear of the exam, as such he knows nothing. Exam anxiety can
strike before, during and after a test. Battling this type of performance
anxiety can be hard, but it is not impossible. Good study habits and learning
how to relax can help students overcome exam fear.

be nervous before exam?
What is advised and not advised right before exam?
What steps can you take to get over get over your nervousness and
anxiety?

Relax. Try doing some meditation.
Give your brain some rest and think positive.
Make a plan and follow a plan.
Divide your topics and complete them in parts.
Take breaks in between study hours.
Breaks are as important as studying.
Avoid repetitive reading. There is a
common feeling that if I read again and again, I will retain it. Avoid it.
Continue with your plan. If you follow your plan properly, you’ll have enough
time to revise everything.
Sleep properly. Your body and brain
need rest. A sound sleep makes you more efficient for the next day.
Talk to your parents and friends.
This also helps in reducing your anxiety and stress.
Think positive. Think about your
strengths and not your weaknesses.
