Tips to Help Reduce Test Anxiety

 

• Study in small chunks
• Review your notes twice a week
• Have a positive self talk dialogue to help you get through anxiety
• Quiz yourself after each study session. (Twice is better)
• Highlight important terms and their definitions in the book
• Use the margins of books and notes to make notes to draw the text and the instructor together
• Make outlines of the chapters and use them to help you study
• Make flash cards to help you study terms, names, and dates
• Talk to the Professor if you are having trouble in their class
• Use the help labs on campus (The reading lab, writing lab, and the math lab are all examples.)
• Get plenty of rest before the test
