Praise God! I was never stressed or anxious in life during my exams, viva-voce, entrances, interviews.. Maybe I used to prepare well and was always confident or
maybe because of my Mother's prayers !!

If you are really prepared, anxiety and stress are reduced to almost zero.
Important things to overcome anxiety before and during the exam:
- Accept a sense of moderate fear of examinations because its normal for everyone.
- Stay away from staying up because it kills activity and vitality and affects the student disorders and insomnia and lack of concentration.
- Start to answer easy questions at the time of exams, in order to gain time and relieve anxiety.
- Confidence in self and in the ability to succeed as long as we worked hard.
- Consider eating the three meals in time, and include vegetables and fresh fruits,
As dairy products, good nutrition of the body also plays an important role in proper thinking.
Go through a rehearsal process imagining yourself sitting in the exam hall with a paper and pencil and pretending to answer questions including tough ones. Keep breathing normally and think that you ave the ability to overcome any anxiety.
The other method would be to bring a crutch, for example, a doll or a key chain that has given you comfort and display it on your desk.. Some resort to taking anxiety reducing medications prior to the test making sure that it does not cause sleepiness or reduced alertness.
As a student, we all are aware that examination is the basic end of our progressive chart. With this students become regular for their study & also for planning for examination & as such regular programming planning for the preparation of examination may not invite any stress, tension, or worries.
This is my personal opinion
My stress before exams had smoothly flowing into stress before speaking at conferences, meetings, etc. I have this for a long time - without consequences. Well, stress, and what's next? ... In fact, a person who is not stressed before such events makes me suspicious ... In my opinion, this means that he will not attach any significance to this.
In severe cases (in others), I get out laughing or joking ("an adult man, a professor, and shakes like a flunkey student"). I’ll tell you a secret: I saw quite large scientists who shook like an aspen leaf before speach. Stress is normal. Person just need to learn how to manage it. Under stress, it can do much and much better than in a normal state (remember about berserkr), alternative is simple - lie face down to the wall and cry ... Very useful also experience in participating in sports competitions.
Just do not use any medications (and not medical ones either). This can be a cruel joke. Once I saw a dissertator on thesis defense (having been pumped up with tranquilizers) suddenly completely lost interest in life ... If it weren’t for the chairman of the council, who “took the brunt,” it would have ended badly.

Phenazepami... and immediately go to the bed, well, this exam ...
Studying a book thick material three days and nights before an exam - that's a stress. The only remedy is to do it systematically a week after a week, a month after a month. One would still have some excitement before and during the exam. However, it's different than a stress that paralyzes memory, logic, common sense, and keeps one in the state of a profound confusion.
It is very natural -No Pain No Gain ! . But a regular academic student should not have any stress & anxiety from fear .
Thank you Vadim S. Gorshkov Sir for sharing your experience. It was quite helpful.
Mariam Berianidze I second that avoiding procrastination is the key to beat exam stress, anxiety and fear.
Hi there! The best way to alleviate test anxiety is to live the anxiety itself and express the same in written document or oral recording. Once you have verbalized the way you suffered, it facilitates your self regulation. Best .
There are two strategies for dealing, which are: ● The strategy for dealing before the exam: It is the responsibility of teachers and parents in relieving stress and phobias and avoiding the causes of psychological stress for the student and creating an ideal calm environment that encourages dealing with creativity and highlighting their mental abilities. ● Strategy during the exam: It is the exam’s observer In the examination room with good reception with a cheerful and smiling destination, creating an ideal metaphysical atmosphere for performing the exam, issuing clear instructions about the exam, technical matters related to it, and not roaming or issuing loud sounds that negatively affect the student.
