- Remind yourself that you are well prepared and that the test is an enjoyable challenge and
a chance to share your knowledge. Be proud of yourself! You worked hard all year. Once
test day comes, there is nothing further you can do. It is out of your hands, and your only
job is to answer as many questions correctly as you possibly can.
What Should I Do the Night Before the Exam?
Although we do not vigorously support last-minute cramming, there may be some value to
some last-minute review. Spending the night before the exam relaxing with family or friends
is helpful for many students. Watch a movie, play a game, gab on the phone, and then find
a quiet spot to study. While you’re unwinding, flip through your notebook and review sheets.
As you are approaching the exam, you might want to put together a list of topics that have
troubled you and review them briefly the night before the exam. If you are unable to fall asleep,
flip through our chapter on taxonomy and classification (Chapter 13). Within moments,
you’re bound to be ready to drift off. Pleasant dreams.
