Many students have not considered their technique for completing their exams but have focused instead on how to acquire the information that they will need within the exam. This can be short-sighted as poor exam technique can cost many hard-earned marks on the day. Having a consistent approach to each exam is supportive and can reduce stress and anxiety. Using techniques that boost performance is much more effective than relying on responses to anxious feelings within the exam. The workbook compares the preparations and techniques used by athletes before competitions and the way that students can prepare before exams, leaving nothing to chance and having a clear strategy for delivering their best performance.
This workbook goes well with revision technique and managing exam anxiety workbooks.
