Physical Preparation for examinations

If you have an eye defect-shortsightedness, far-sightedness or astigmatism-have yourself fitted with contact lenses or framed eyeglasses before the exams. You cannot afford to squint or fail to read te instructions and your answers to the test questions.

Your review guides should be designed in such a way as not to be unreasonably eye-straining. They should cover all but in a comprehensive, not detailed, way. They should be too much for your eyes to read and brain to store.

Sleep soundly and without a care at the end of each review day. Do all the thinking and concentrating while reviewing, not information at a maximum and then to let it process and store the information and release it on exam day.

It will do no good to force yourself awake all night, trying to memorize. This is cramming and cramming will over exert the unprepared brain which cannot store very much when tense or sleepy. The only sure and healthy way is to prepare well ahead of time, preferably every day.

If you intend to wake up earlier than you normally do, use an alarm clock. But your sleeping hours should not be less than the normal required for mental alertness. Sleep earlier if you want to wake up earlier too. Your bed and room or sleeping area should be as clean, spacious and comfortable as possible. You need a good sleep for an active day ahead. Your tired body and mind need it more now than on other tension less days. Re-arranging, cleaning and clearing your room and bed should be one of your preparations for the exams. After all, here is where all the real reviewing happens. Check your ventilation and lighting, Make them as ideal as possible and conducive to your review. If you are bothered y noise, close your windows and get ventilation somewhere else.


Creative Hands

When my sister is a little girl she likes cutting papers. She also likes creating shapes just by cutting card boards and colored papers. When she was studying in primary level. if they have project she makes sure that her front page is made of her creations cutting papers. One time her art teacher noticed here art work and asks her if she can help the class officers in designing their classrooms bulletin boards. She said she’ll try her best because its her first time to create something like that. Then her creation is perfect the students like it even faculty teachers like it. On her graduation day the teacher’s asked her if she can share an idea in designing their stage on the coming school activities. She said she’ll think of the design then she’ll show the teacher’s if they’ll like it. She has three designs they like it all. But they only choose one. The other designed were used in the other school activities.

Now she’s in college she is taking fashion designing she wants to expand her knowledge in designing clothes. She still like cutting papers but she want to try her talents in cloth cutting.


Preparation for the examination day

It may take the whole of the last day for you to finish answering all the review guide, but without sweating or being unnerved about them. Remember to eat lunch and take snacks at their proper times. When you finish answering all the review guides, keep them all away, eat supper, clean up, pray for assistance from God and go to sleep. The next morning rise early as usual, bring your ball pens and snacks to school with confidence. Do not scare yourself that you may forget or other questions may be asked. Trust that nothing will surprise you and that you will give the exams your very best shot with God’s help.

Take each exam calmly and without forcing any information out. As already mentioned, your subconscious will automatically yield the answers if you stay calm.

When the day 1 of your review days are finished and you are home again, do not review the next day’s exams. You will tend to cram and this will disturb the orderly absorption of the total range of lessons. Neither should you quickly look at your notes for day 1’s exams to verify your answers. You are likely to be discouraged at discovering errors. Knowing the errors at this time does not help, since periodical exams end a subject or course. Besides, there is only a slim possibility of this happening if you followed the rules of effective studying from the beginning.

Not all the periodical exam notebooks or papers are returned, but you find out your grades as soon as they are corrected When you received yours, do not be emotional if there are some incorrect answer on your exams. It will not help feeling bad. Unless your teacher asked far-out questions, your exams will be perfect and you will top your class.
