Anxiety?

Anyone else having some serious anxiety heading into this exam tomorrow? Any thoughts on how people are dealing with it?

Major anxiety - can’t sleep, jittery, all that good stuff. Just trying to work through it. I may do a short workout at around 5 just to get some of it out but this happened last time too so not sure it will go away until this is all over! Oh yeah - and staying away from caffeine as much as possible today. Tomorrow though… start off my AM with a monster to get me going!

you kidding me!!! I’ve been puking all day. There, I just threw up again.

I am thinking shots of Expresso to limit b’room breaks.

Definately getting jittery. Feels just like last year. It makes me want to keep cramming, but I know I should’t. I already know I am not going to sleep much tonight.

You guys are fine. You put in the hours of prep. . . just relax and enjoy the rest of the day. Be confident. . . be relaxed.

No reason to be nervous. Either you know it or you don’t. You’ve worked your arse off and that should pay off. Either way it doesn’t matter. Getting nervous doesn’t change a thing. I’m actually relieved that it’s almost over. At this point freaking out and cramming won’t help.

I agree about being nervous not helping. When I did one of the practice tests I got nervous and frustrated and couldn’t figure out anything. After I relaxed I looked at it again and it seemed so easy. What I’m going to do is feel good about the time I put into this and the fact I know more than 70% of all topics, so I just need to show that off tomorrow.

I totally agree. We are going to feel like a $1,000,000 after we finish the test!!!

It’s so weird…I don’t think I’m actually nervous for the test. I know my stuff and have done well on all of the practice exams I have taken. But my body just doesn’t want to cooperate with that theory…

You should drink some beer and listen to some cool music.

I love how people tell you not to be nervous as if its a choice. For me its mostly the anticipation - when I do sit down for the actual test, it gives me something to focus on and most of that goes away. Hopefully taking some of it out on my elliptical will help but 9 am can’t get here fast enough…

I spent an hour this morning cleaning my apartment. I think that relaxed me as I no longer care to take the last practice exam. Either relaxed or I’m too tired.

I am going to redue my anxiety by closing up my notes and secret sauce for good, collecting my exam ticket, pencils and calculator and forgetting about the exam for the rest of the day.
