If you can, try to make sure you have completed your revision a few days before the actual exam, you can then put the last few days to good use by relaxing, gathering and checking what was revised for your exam. When you have done this try to exercise your body in a relaxation technique for around an hour or so, this will leave you feeling refreshed for the next couple of days. It is also wise to avoid any stressful situations at this time such as a visit to the doctor or thinking about solving a problem.
Morning Exams - Make sure that you get up early and take a long hot shower, avoid trying to pick up the books and go into more revision as this will only stress you. Make sure that you have breakfast before you leave even if it is only a small one, it will give you energy. Once you have had breakfast then make sure that you have everything you need well before the time you have to leave the house. Make sure that you give yourself plenty of time to arrive at the exam hall and relax as much as you can in your seat and calmly arrange the items you need around you. Afternoon Exam - Try to relax throughout the morning and don't be tempted to do any more revision, make sure that you eat a light lunch and that you have everything you need together well before its time to leave. Sit down and relax, play your favourite music or watch a movie to take your mind off the exam and to make time pass more quickly. Make sure that you give yourself plenty of time to arrive at the exam hall and relax as much as you can in your seat and calmly arrange the items you need around you. Read through the exam paper slowly then re-read it marking questions to answer as you read through it, once you have gone through it then take another look at the questions you marked carefully.Be sure to highlight any sections that are compulsory and read instructions carefully.Most people will tackle the easiest questions first and this gives them confidence and gets them off to a good start. |

The 2nd tip: Prepare a good time table. Prepare a time table before starting the study. This should include all the subjects but may not be with equal priority. Tough subjects can be given more time and easier ones less but most importantly some time shall be allotted for entertainment and also there should be sufficient intervals between each subject. The 3rd tip: Select a proper atmosphere for studying. Select a place where you feel comfortable. That is where you feel relaxed and can concentrate. And you have to make sure that while you are studying a subject you are concentrating on it only. The 4th tip : Make notes while studying. This is a very important point. While studying make small notes and that should not be descriptive make theme brief so that you can remember all points while doing revision with the help of that note. The 5th tip : Write and Present well. The presentation is the major factor that affects your marks. Whatever you studied or prepared your marks will depend on how you present them in the answer sheet. The 6th tip: Believe in God, Believe in you. The last but not the least point pray well before the exam and your mind should be free at least 5 minutes before exam.
