When it comes to tackling tests and curbing test anxiety, the name of the game is prepare and self-care. Start early, break things down into bite-sized study sessions, and get comfortable with the expected format. Don't just stare at the book or your notes—mix it up with flashcards, mind maps, whatever works to get you engaged deeply in retrieving and applying the concepts you need to know. As your exam approaches, manage your stress and maintain a positive attitude. Visualize yourself acing that test, and develop a pre-test routine so that you're at your best: eat well, exercise, and get quality rest.
