I try (and believe me, it's exceptionally challenging) to reframe nervous, anxious energy POSITIVELY. I try to look at it as excitement. Exams are an opportunity to display what you know--or fake it very well.

All will be well. You will shine. The time will be up & it will all be over before you know it. You've taken the course, done the work (hopefully), read the material completely, etc. You will do this to the best of your ability AT THE TIME and pass. I strongly suspect that you will surprise yourself.

Kick some academic butt.

It's all in the self-talk, so tell yourself encouraging things in encouraging ways.

Kate.
