2. Good Luck!
Stay positive and relaxed! Be aware of how you are feeling physically during the exam. If you notice tensed muscles or an aching neck/back, stop for a bit and stretch out the kinks. Sitting with your back and neck straight reduces exam fatigue. Deep, slow breathing keeps you oxygenated and helps with focus.

All of the above tips helped me get though my math requirements in college. I learned them from a remedial algebra professor who was as much a counselor and coach as a teacher.

Again, best of luck.

5. Thank you!
I'll try to keep that in mind. I'm bringing a snack to school so my blood sugar doesn't get funky and leave me spacy, since I have classes through the lunch hour.

10. I think I did okay.
I know I got full credit for my speech because I already got the comments back. I also found out I've got full credit on every assignment in my sexuality class so far, and since I am pretty darn sure I did well on the test I should have an A in that. I think I did okay on the poli sci exam, I did miss one question but I was pretty confident in the answers on the rest. Hopefully I'll get my test back thursday and have a better idea of how I did on that one.

It looks like I did okay. I'm a bit nervous about the poli sci exam because my insturctor is said to be a really tough grader, but I think I did well on that one.
