-
Feel quite sad today...Took a test which i haf been learning for very long but underperform...wat happen?I knew how to do all the questions but no time to finish it...how to cope wif examination fear? Y last min the feeling is juz so tense and like can't think and write out the answer which i knew?
-
haha..ZizI i think u can be my gd fren liao.. i always have this problem ever since i am in JC.. nothing turns out rite.. u study the test until u slp also0 memorising the formulas..(really happened to me) but in the end still fail.. i am used to it liao.. now take A levels i make sure i cannot screw that up!
-
Dun worry when going in to take exam. What I do is I bring in some sweets to eat during the exams. The recent prelims I brought and finished 1 whole tube of mentos for the whole exam.

y not try tis...b4 the exams tell urself its nuthin much...den when u c the paper juz concentrate on the paper and dun think about anything else? i used to fear..but once u r really into the papers..hehe nuthin can break the concentration..except if ur friend beside u snoring like an ox hehe :p
-
hmm...
me last time oso like tt...
got study in the end oso cannot write anything out..
so always impromtu think and sian loh...
if u are doin essays, then i guess u shd have better time management.,
like...4 questions for 2.5 hours..so set 45 mins a qn..when time is up..go on to the next qn regardless whether u finish onot..at least wun lose out too much...(leaving one entire qn not done is worse)
before u start the paper, sit there, close ur eyes and recall all the main points (before looking at the questions)...when u are ready then start..
scan all questions first before attempting..and do the ones u are most confident..later go bac and complete the rest...
it is good to drink a mouthful of water before u enter the exam hall..to calm u down a bit..

U are putting unnecessary stress on yourself. I am no whiz-kid, but at least I know that when I enter the exam hall, I would not subject myself to unnecessary stress from whether I know the answer or not to is the time given sufficient.
Relax gal. Never put yourself under unduly stress. -
Zizi,
Hey don't give in to little failures.. they're there to dampen your mood only. IF you're being affected by it, then more important responsibilities will have more set backs. I'm sure you want to make it big one day. Remeber your project?? You will face a lot of challenges when doing your great project on modifying the structure your bed. If you are going let it affect that much. you can never get it done....
Remember this phrase: Who I am, makes a difference... you think you're going to be the tough girl that's going to march on, then be one and move on... =)

TRY THIS METHOD?
You begin by normal studying and memorising... UNTIL you think you KNOW.. Then go PLAY... Go FORGET... DON'T be AFRAID to forget...
THEN STUDY again... (Repeat if desired).
During the papers that day, I can ASSURE you that most probably NO MATTER how hard you TRY to forget your materials you just CAN'T do that!!
------------------
In LIGHT I shall FEAR NOT. FOR what I AM is CUT so DEEP inside of ME.
I LIVE my FLESH and SOUL ONLY to BLEED for the OTHERS.
FEAR ME NOT. FOR I AM YOUR 'MASTER'. GIVE YOU STRENGTH. FOR YOU ARE MY 'ENEMY'.
DEVIL PHRASE I
I have no 'friends' nor 'family'.
I hold no past and see not future...
These are just samples of illusions....
I don't exist, but I shall live ETERNITY..... DEVIL PHRASE II
ße COOL, NOT s¢rr¥.... -

Try not to pressurise urself by thinking of getting good grades. As long as you have revised ur stuffs well, can olreadi.
When you feel tense in the exam hall, try to take a deep breath or maybe humm a tune to relax urself. Bring sweets along as it may calm you down. Instead of bringing water, bring canomile tea... better.
Cos when you tense up, you will not be able to think well and even worse... a blank mind!!
I kenna once while taking my exam... dunno what I am writing... my mind just switch off cos too tense lor... now noe how to relax abit while taking exam using the above methods.
So no harm trying. -
Really admire u ppl who can finish so fast and is full of confidence to get a gd grade...Originally posted by kof-guy:i nvr got this prob b4 so dunno how to answer, i can go into an exam hall, finish everytime in 1½hr, take a nap and leave wif a A/B grade

My fren found out tt he was position 96 in the whole sch, and was very very unhappy abt it cuz he wanted to be the top 50. But I was telling him, aim simple. I believe aiming simple means can meet target easily.
I'm sure most of us aim for 4 As and 2 Ds in the A levels. But tt's all. Y aim for sth higher, like getting the top 50? Having a target or goal to work towards is good, but when u dun reach it, dun need to worry. I was aiming to top maths in sch, but the prob I faced was like u, careless mistakes. Caused me like 10+ mks. Carelessness always happen, and it is very difficult to prevent.
Exam stress comes abt if u worry and set urself to high a target. Study correctly or incorrectly matters a bit. But by ur As, Cambridge are not creative at all. They always repeat qns, so juz do TYS can already.
This is juz some suggestion, no need to take into serious consideration.

You can get the teabags from supermarket.
FYI Camomile is a kind of flower. The color of the tea is a bit yellowish, you can add some honey... mmm it will taste better.
I dunno the chinese name of the tea. Consider ang moh herbal tea. Also good for health. -
ZiZi:
Maybe during the next AA outing, I can "chuan shou" some studying skills to u. -
no need admire one lah. my grades oso not say very power, i was a B grade student hahahhaa, nvr really aim for A.Originally posted by ZiZi:Really admire u ppl who can finish so fast and is full of confidence to get a gd grade...
truth is that, if u pay attention in class, and do all your tutorials, so no problem one mah.
normally a textbook inside got some sums, lecturers only ask you do a few right?
that time i bo liao go do all of them loh.
it's about understanding the subject, not memorising it. books are dead, you are alive, remember that.
u dun have to read thru the entire textbook, just look for wat is important and learn that.
when u are able to explain something in yur own words (singlish oso counted haha) that is when you have finally understood the subject. -
when u feel like u cannot do, but all formulas and data comes to mind when u see a qn, and u noe wat to use, means u understood it already.
Juz do tutorials, dunno dun mean dun do, but mean shud think think and think. Think til like u r really exhausted, then ask. Like tt u wil interalise it better. Dun juz keep asking pple. Like maths, I believe in thinking for up til 1-2 days b4 asking pple sometimes. This oso generates ur creativity and stamina when solving.

my barber once gave me a very good explaination of thinking.
have you guys ever noticed that sometimes, no matter how hard you try to think, nothing related comes to mind?
then u decide to take a rest, do something else and suddenly the answer comes to your mind?
the mind works strangely. you can't force yourself to think or not to think. if you can't think of a solution, take a rest, do something, then go back.
because while you are doing something else, the solution is being thought up at the back of your brain.
hey if u dare, during exam, take a 10 minute nap halfway. then wake up and do your paper. your mind will suddenly be very clear.
