I know I cannot make corrections at the last minute. How do I prepare them psychologically? One piece of advice I give them is to always keep going whatever happens. What other advice can I give them? |

I really was grateful for a teach who said, if you don't know it today, you won't know it tomorrow, so just chill out and do what you will. Most students read something totally unconnected, some revised, others (me included) just caught up on some sleep!! LTS |

Tension( or too much of it) just mucks up your memory.. stop revising a full 24 hours before the exam.. read through the stuff once, Not concentrating just reading lightly, and most important, READ THE QUESTIONS... sounds silly I know, but not answering what is asked is the most common mistake made under tension ie if it says "state Bloggs Law" state it in equation form or words, and identify the terms and then stop..., do NOT write an essay on Bloggs and his struggles to prove it |
