There are many situations that can cause us stress in our day to day, but there are always certain periods in which we face greater pressure.
In times of exams, stress helps us stay active and achieve optimal performance to achieve our goals satisfactorily. However, if stress levels are too high, it can be very detrimental to performance.
How to prepare for an exam?
When facing the study, there are various guidelines that can improve our study habits:
First of all, it is important to know which is the study technique that best suits our way of studying. Not all of us assimilate and memorize information in the same way, so we have to find the technique that helps us the most to retain the information.
A correct planning for the study is necessary. Setting short, medium and long-term goals will make our performance effective and organized when facing the study.
During sleep, all the information that we have accumulated during the day is stored in the memory, making the knowledge settle. Therefore, to obtain good results, it is crucial that we respect the hours of sleep.
Believe it or not, our eating habits have a direct impact on our memory. A varied diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants has a very positive influence on concentration and memory.
How to face the exam?
Forget last-minute reviews before entering the exam, they will only get you upset and leave your nerves on edge.
When you have the exam in your hands, start by doing a general reading of it, understanding and paying attention to what is being asked and not so much whether or not you know the answer.
If during the exam you get stuck on any question, go to the next one and you will come back when you feel more confident to answer it.
Whenever we face an exam we have to control the total time in order to control the time we have for each question.
