Welcome to the Panic Attack!
Panicking before exams is usually due to the fear of failing to adequately prepare for the exam or the fear of failure in general. Also having negative thoughts, like “I can’t do it” or “I’m useless”, leads to the inability to do the required work.
Here are some tips that will help avoiding exams anxiety:
- Try to plan your work in order to have extra time to finish studying and revise before exams. Establish a pattern of revision that gives you time to relax, especially last thing at night.
- Prioritize your work ( The most important first, then the less important).
- Avoid procrastination. Do what you have to do the same day you have to do it.
- Put yourself into a positive frame of mind by imagining how you would like things to go. Imagine yourself turning up for the exam feeling confident and relaxed. This can replace negative thoughts with more positive ones.
- Do not work till the last minute; last minute revision may leave you with an anxious feeling.
- Do not allow negative thoughts to stop you. Have high self-confidence and believe that you can do whatever you wanna do no matter what the circumstances are.
- In the exam, decide on the order in which you'll answer the questions. It is usually best to begin with the one you feel most confident about. Think about how you will plan your time, and stick to your plan.
good one :)
