Exam preparation
Do not delay the preparation for exams until the end. Include repetition of material covered in your daily routine. It’s enough to allocate from 10 to 30 minutes, depending on how well you have mastered the topic. This approach will allow you to create that baggage of knowledge with which you can easily answer the exam.

Use cheat sheets correctly
Cribs can be your faithful helpers in one case: if you write them yourself, but bring "forget" to the exam. The fact is that in the process of creating cheat sheets you involuntarily answer all the questions of the upcoming exam. Therefore, if you prepared the cheat sheets in good faith, you can be sure that you can answer any question on the exam.

Read the exam ticket carefully
Having taken your ticket, carefully study the questions in it and try to remember what is written in your cheat sheet for this ticket. Write down the answer to each question carefully. This summary will help you cope with the excitement the moment you answer the exam.

Use self-hypnosis techniques
Excessive excitement is one of the factors preventing a good answer at the exam. If you know that stress drives you into a stupor, try to “trick” your mind. To begin with, imagine the worst case scenario - you could not pass the exam. How does this threaten you? Maximum retake exam. Now, write down the points that you did in order to avoid this. Turn it all on! How much time did you spend on repeating the material you passed, how many cheat sheets were written, how many positive ratings were received during the study.

Call for luck
If you need a "happy shirt" or a nickel under the heel for peace, use them. Belief in your luck is capable of performing real miracles. The main thing is that you answer calmly and confidently on the exam. This is especially true for impressionable people who are easily susceptible to self-hypnosis. Of course, this does not mean that you can rely solely on luck and ignore the preparation for the exam. A happy omen will certainly work only if you make an effort.
6
Do not be silent
Even if you are not completely sure of the accuracy of your answer, do not be silent. Make it clear to the examiner that you have knowledge on this topic, despite the fact that you cannot answer the question. In most cases, the person taking the exam begins to ask leading questions that will help you navigate and answer the exam correctly.
note
Do not use cheat sheets on the exam - this can lead to a significant reduction in grades, even if you are well aware of the answer to the question.
