how do i come over the fear and anxiety during exams?

The only good way to overcome exam anxiety is practice.\n\nHave your family or your friend give you a pre-test on the stuff you are taking the exam for. Have them administer the pre-test the way you get in school and time you while you take it.\n\nDo it couple of times if you have to and it should calm you down.

most of the time test anxiety arises from being unprepared. If u study enough days prior to the test...u should be able to go over some important facts and review the night before

This is completely normal for a lot of people.  You seem prepared which is great and sadly to say rarer then you would think.  I disagree with the previous poster that said it was a result  of unpreparedness or excitement.  I think it is completely possible to be nervous without these as a reason.  There's not tons you can do to completely disolve this, but as you go on more it will most likely get at least a little bit easier.  Do something fun for the rest of your time before the interview and stop trying to run through the interview in your head now that you feel prepared.  There are some things that you can never predict sometimes, but a lot of times first interviews are a more of a get to know you.  Be yourself and try to display confidence to override your fear.  Get to bed early and if your stomach can take it eat a good breakfeast.  \n\nGood luck! I'm sure you'll do great and even if it doesn't go as well as you hope just use it as a learning experience.

As well as promising yourself a reward you should also try to change your mindset. Think about how important the exam actually is. I used to be really nervous about exams but now I tell myself they don't matter and I can always do them again I actually do much better.

hi...\n\nI feel expectations is the mother of all show downs or disappointments. Now that the event has been over, I mean your test has been over all that you need to do is understand that are you really answerable to all those who are watching you. I feel a big NO....its only your family that you need to be worried of. And am sure they know what efforts you've put in to the exams.\n\nBe calm, do what relaxes you more, keep moving in people that you love moving with. These are few tips that I can suggest,\n\nCheers!!!\n\nAnanth

What you are experiencing is common and known as test anxiety. Some people experience anxiety to the level that their fight or flight response kicks in, and they begin to answer test questions in panic mode. There is medication for learning disorders and general anxiety that help alot of people. You can also try some relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, stretching, or exercising before the test. Check your thought processes for negative self-talk, such as "I know I will fail. Replace these with a positive affirmation/ mantra such as "I'm going to win" or "I know this stuff." YOU CAN DO IT!!!

yea - yea. been there done that. \n\nin school my course work was c or less - my related labs were A's. Just could not take tests - the slightest distraction would throw me off. \n\ntry this: visit the classroom beofre the test to get used to the room - close your eyes and imagine your self taking the test and doing weell - think about how you feeel - think possitive thoughts. \n\nduring the test if you stress out - close you eyes and think of my massaging your breasts - just kidding ( jsut wanted to add some humor it helps ) \n\nCLose your eyes and think of white - like a white wall gently rub your eyes while closed to eliminate the stress. \n\nor alt. think about a waterfall - washign away the stress. \n\ngood luck - \nlet me know how your next test goes. I"M WILLING TO WAGER THAT YOU'LL DO GREAT \n\n(Stop a think about the email you will send to me and how excited you are feeling about passing your next test)

It's all in time management.  It's exam time, and that means it's time to get down to business.  All the usual time consuming activities (hanging out, lunch with friends, sports, etc.) are now playing second fiddle to your education.  Use the time you usually use for extracurriculars for studying.  You can resume your normal life after exams are done.  \nAs for dealing with the stress, nothing is more effective than preparedness.  Good Luck!

i dont think a lot of them do. use that fear and that adrenaline rush to your advantage. if you calm yourself by not rushing immediately into an exam then some of the fear goes and your body is usually quite pumped up with all the adrenaline that you can focus on the question.\nso, if its possible to reduce the fear its by slowing yourself down and taking your time.

The night before the exam, study in ten minute bursts, get up and move every ten minutes, the mind can't concentrate correctly longer than that.  check out those last minute areas of the subject you feel unsure of. Cleanse, consecrate and empower your pencil in the morning that you are to use in the exam. Empower a WHITE candle for confidence and clear thinking, Burn it while you study, (in the scientifically approved ten minute bursts fooled by physical movement). Before you fall asleep ask the black swans of dream time to help you sort out the information that you have learned so that you will be clear-headed for the exam. don't go to bed to late, get plenty of rest, eat a good breakfast the morning of the test.Empower and drink a cup of spearmint tea before you leave for school.

Procrastination is the problem here my friend...\nWe all do that. We put-off studying till the 11th hour and then end up having to work on loads of stuff. At this point, we get scared and our heart fills with feelings of frustration, giult, & failure.\nHere's are a few references that might help...I was a chronic procrastinator...I would be scared to study. Now i am slowing getting the confidence.\nREMEMBER: There is NO substitute for hard work\nBest of Luck!!!!

you have to start within you and stop saying I cant do math-that is when your phobia kicks in because you program yourself not to believe you can do it--get a good math tutor such as Silvan online or score or even someone who is patient to break down the math problems for you\n\nI know how you feel I needed to pass statistics for College and I hated math so I had to change my tune go to math tutoring and stay dedicated and focus for and to myself at first its going to be a bit edgey but you can do it I passed my test with flying colors\n\nyou have to have the motivation, dedication, and time to get what you need done

You need to do your very best to put this behind you for the sake of your test. I'm hoping that your sporatic typing is evidence of how stressed out you are so I am not going to go on that too much. Slow down, take a deep breath and concentrate on your studies. Don't take any phone calls and don't let anyone harrass you. If you do get someone on the phone, tell them that pressuring you doesn't help and politely say goodbye until your test is done. I really feel like you may have more deep seated problems than what you are telling about here. I would deal with those as soon as you can. Counseling may be a good idea for you. It would also do you well to learn some good relaxation techniques. Do some running, play some good music, don't over study. I hope it all works out well for you.
