Just the thought of exams brings with it many unknowns, this can often lead to us feeling stressful and anxious about what we maybe going through.

It is important to know that you are not on your own, many people become anxious and nervous about examinations, the feeling is very similar to those of preparing for a job interview or performing in sport. We can use these feelings in a positive way by channelling them into our preparations.

By using the methods you have learnt and taking time to prepare effectively you can help reduce some of these feelings by trusting in the processes.

Where can I go if I need help?

It is important that you share this with your parents, teachers and often friends as all of these people can help you. Try not to bottle it up as this wont help you and can often makes things worse. Let someone know as soon as possible so further support can be given.
