How to deal with exams?

[Jimmy | Intelligent]

As many of you know exams can be rather stressful, At the moment I am slap bang in the middle of them.
Anybody that has any suggestion or has had experience with this could you please help me.
It might seem sad that I am using a game forum for IRL help, but this is the most positive community that I am in.
Thanks

Study

Thats just to get better grades, not maintain a healthy state of mind

Well everything is good in moderation.

Drink tea, lots of tea, go to sleep early, listen to music and try not to go to some freaking school that forces you to wake up at 6 am to get on the bus.

That last bit LordTaco Noob_Out_Of_Disguise and me all have to get up around that time - maybe a bit later to go to school.

Take deep breaths, don't take it TOO seriously and listen to music that has a good meaning and that you like that you can jam too. Music helps me a tonne, especially powerful ones with a lot of beats! Or is that just me?!

Things that people have told me in the past:

- Eat healthily throughout the exam period (and after...).
- Listen to music with no vocals, try not to listen to depressing music.
- Study in little bits, so 30 minutes of one subject, 10 minute break, 30 minutes of another subject etc.
- When you're in the exam, try not to over-think it. If you screw up it isn't the end of the world!
- Avoid energy drinks and snacking when you're studying.
- Try to stay positive!

Hope this helps :3

Don't constantly check the forums. I should be revising right now though...

Well, if you study the amount you need, then you have nothing to worry about. If you don't study, then you do have something to worry about. Ask your professor/teacher what is expected in the exam or ask him/her what they suggest to study and do whatever is suggested + extra I recommend.

I'm probably the worst guy to ask for study tips, because I only studied for my exams the night before XD (still got all A's though )

Don't study for things that you know. It's a waste of your time, and also gives you more things to think about and possibly forget about.
