Hello my stressed out and anxiety filled friends. As SOLs and AP exams are coming up, we often tend to stress out, stay up late studying, and don’t eat the right foods. Here are some ways to help.
The day before a big test, You should get 8-10 hours of sleep. If you don’t know it by 11:30 than go to sleep and study it in the morning again. Sleep is the most important thing you can get before a big test. You will want to feel refreshed when you wake up in the morning.
The morning of your test, eat a good breakfast. Oatmeal, Pancakes, Fruit, Eggs, and Sausage or Bacon are all good examples. If you are like me and don’t eat breakfast, than just east a piece of toast with some avocado and honey. Anything in the morning will help give you energy throughout the day.
When studying for your tests, take little breaks. Try an hour of studying and 20 minutes off. In that time get a snack, watch part of a tv show, do a face mask, or anything that will help you chill and relax. Also remember that if you have been studying you shouldn’t be as nervous as someone who hasn’t studied at all and is cramming.
Good luck to everyone taking their exams and sols!
