    I am probably the worst person to ask for this, considering my work habits are at a level 0, but i’ll try. Maybe try studying for a set amount of time every day. Not a whole lot, maybe even only 30 minutes. You can review the days material and complete homework. Maybe also get a friend or family member to set up a “reward” system, where if you do well and study hard you will get something you wanted. I wish you the best of luck on your exam!

    I've took a licensure/board exam and there's only two advices I could give you: 1. Take notes, don't just highlight the text if it's from a book or some printed copy, since it's easier to retain infos that way. 2. Don't review a day before the exam and on the day of the exam, because it could mess up with the things you have learned, since adding info during stress is somewhat less reliable, at least for me. Take a break and unwind.

    But do take note that there's people out there who thrives during stressful situations. So it's important to know about where you stand/circumstances where you'll do better.


    Can't really say "it's not important what people thinks" etc. because in my country, exams like these gives you an easier time getting a job and a higher chance of getting a good one. And here, having (good) job means being able to pay your bills and help the family.

    *Hugs* Good luck! (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

    Believe in yourself and the effort you've been putting. You can do this, you have been preparing for this. And, no matter what the result may be, it won't be the end of the world. Regardless of the outcome, there are many more opportunities out there, waiting for you. You're capable, you're enough, you can do this. Good luck!

    Some advices:
    - if you're a believer, pray a lot, and call your family and ask them to wish you luck. Know that a lot of people are supporting you and by your side.
    - have options. What is your plan B, and plan C, just in case things don't go the way you want to. Discuss this with your parents if you're a minor, be sure you're fine with all the options.
    - as a said before, if you prepare enough, you won't be too nervous. You got this! Break a leg :)

    This could be a cliche reply but failing one important exam does not necessarily define your future. This could be something that you've heard over and over again but its true. After this exam, there will be other important exams you'll take. You may fail some but you will learn from your mistakes and get back up because we do not go through life without scrapes and bruises. There will be people who view your failure as a disappointment but do not dwell on other's thoughts of you so often you forget your progress. This is the time where we make our mistakes, its okay if you take a longer time to get to where you want to be, everyone has their OWN pace. You will get there, please have more faith in yourself. Be strong, be you. Hope you have a wonderful day.

    I don't think I have ever really taken serious exams except the SAT so I guess I will just speak from experience with that test. Keep working hard and do practice tests if you have access to them.
    I also strongly recommend downloading Anki. It is a flashcard app that uses spaced repetition meaning it will show you cards when it thinks you're going to forget the information. Many people who are studying for very serious exams use this application and it has proven to be effective in remembering the majority of the info you need to remember -> https://apps.ankiweb.net/
    Good luck and just know a test score does not define your worth! *head pat* (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
