Some exam day tips to keep you going strong through the exam:

Nervousness/Stress - Vist exam center if you haven't done so. Carefully plan the exam day in advance (take into account bathroom & exam room lineups). Take extra pencils. Pack car with meds, water, food, etc. Hopefully you've had a solid study & practice program to boost your confidence

Fatigure/Slow - Sleep EARLY night before! Wear watch to keep track of time during exam. Have a little coffee. Hopefully you've built up speed with repeated practice exams.

Hot/Cold - Dress in comfortable clothing and in layers. Keep any extra clothing items in car.

Hunger - Have a solid breakfast (oatmeal is slow releasing and will keep you full for long time). Pack your lunch and keep it in the car. Eating a small energy bar right before entering exam room may be a good idea.

Stomache Ache - Don't overeat and limit coffee. Take one TUMS just in case.

Bathroom Need - Limit coffee. Don't eat & drink too close to exam time - go to bathroom right before entering exam room.

Distractions - Take ear plugs

Unique health conditions - If you have allergies etc, take your meds.


GOOD LUCK!!
