The last trick is to get a good night’s sleep the night before your exam. Sleep is very important for your mental stability. Cramming in a whole bunch of studying the night before and staying up late isn’t going to help as much as you think it might. For most people, a lack of sleep results in a lack of focus. Sleep is one of those often overlooked, but extremely powerful tricks that calm your mind and help you to prepare for an exam. Therefore, make sure to end your study session at least a couple of hours before you go to sleep and aim for 7-8 hours of rest.
Exams can be stressful, but the above tricks can help to ease your mind. Re-writing the information helps you retain the information better. Deep breaths help you to relax so you feel less anxious. Getting a good night’s rest helps you to focus and feel better in general.
