This helps you calm down yourself for sure....
You are at one of the most important situations which may twist your future sometimes. But you should have an idea that, worried about the examination is useless, and studying the subject in a hurry is very ineffective.
It is the time to mature your mind, into calm and quiet, so you can concentrate into examination easily. You mustn't consider the examination as an unhappy work.So you can control your heart and
mind easily in the examination.
Your mind will often frighten you saying that you aren't prepared well. That plays the major role in affecting the best perfomance. First you should realize that it is a common thing faced by every students. Almost everyone's mind would frighten them. The winners are those who understand this truth and neglect such discouragments.
Even if you aren't really well prepared you can perform much better than what you expected when you stop hearing the mind which frightens.
We normally knows the format of the examination. Wether it is A/L or O/L you should plan it before exam. By being aware of the time you have to spend with every parts(part1, part2),you can control your time in the examination and you can reduce running out of time and stress.
When answering question, you can have a look at all the questions and estimate the time needed for each question. You can choose to answer certain question first, if you think you can perform it better. This will help you reduce the stress usually we face at the beginning of the exams and then you can do other question in a better mentality.Though this is not practicable for MCQ.
Don't lose more marks and time in answering a question that you think you can't perform well. Use more time to answer other questions. Read every quesrions carefully as you need not to spend time in reading the question more than 2 times. Becareful of the words like Underline, describe, elaborate...etc.. If you find a question that seems hard to answer, don't get tensed up, since high level of stress will affect your normal thinking.
So instead of worrying about the hard question, skip it and answer another question. When you have finished completely the questions which you could answer,go back to the left questions and think it again.
And make sure you have enough time to mark the MCQ answers on the answer sheet.
