Day 28 - Day 30
Day 28 - Day 30 (FINAL REVIEW): 3 DAYS BEFORE THE TEST
The final three days!
We are almost there. There is only one thing that you should do in these final three days – review. You will most likely forget any new information that you cram into your brain now because you are too close to the test day. Don’t do it, no matter how tempting it is!
Instead, focus on consolidating what you have studied, and make sure that you understand the answers and reasoning to all of the questions that you previously answered incorrectly. Go back to the techniques you have used and quickly read through them to see if you missed anything.
Review your entire notebook and spend time on your most difficult subjects. Don’t feel stressed out about studying. Feel free to cut down on your study hours if you are comfortable with the topics. Use these three days to ready yourself mentally for the test. This involves staying calm, building your confidence and feeling positive.
Adjust your body to get ready for the test by sleeping well, eating right and getting enough fresh air and exercise. And try not to stay up too late!
Thought for Days 28-30.
You have achieved a lot of things over the last 30 days and can now take the test with confidence. You know how to concentrate, and how to manage your time. You should be calm in order to easily recall the techniques and strategies we talked about. Go show them – and yourself – what you got!
TEST DAY!
Finally, the test day has arrived.
Wake up early and have a good breakfast. Pack a bag with water, snacks, a pen and your notebook. Leave ample time to get to the test center, find parking and have a breather/ bathroom break before your appointment.
Briefly review your notes before the test, but don’t spend too much time trying to memorize everything.
Take a deep breath before you start the test. Remind yourself that you can do it.
There’s a message for you on the page after Final Word that I’d like you to read right before the test. If today is your test day, you can turn to that page now. If not, wait until test day to turn to it.
