You can manage stress when preparing for tests by using the following:
- Fuel your brain: Eat a lot of healthy foods, such as fruits, grains and protein to keep up energy levels
- Exercise: Walking, doing yoga or even dancing can reduce stress and tension
- Start early: Start to prepare for tests early and prevent last-minute studying
- Active learning: Using flashcards, practice tests or teaching concepts can help improve learning instead of reading
- Brain breaks: Take short and quick breaks every 10-20 minutes
- Positive Affirmations: Believe in positive thinking, rather than thinking about failing
- Talk to someone: Talking to teachers or peers can help you feel less tense and calm you down
These are some ways to help prepare for a test! You got this!
