Suppose your entrance exam is on Saturday morning 8 am onwards(as it usually is—but take this as a sample for any other exams). So what to do from Friday--- this is the time when tension starts escalating, you get nervous and know not what to do and what not to. Most of the students get in complete disarray during this time. Confusion mounts! Shall I study Physics?—you start reading it for an hour but in the back of your head you feel you got to study chemistry and you have forgotten many of biology part as well. So without completing Physics, you shift to chemistry---but cant concentrate and again go for bio---and time is running fast---and you feel you know nothing and have eth left for revision—you get more nervous---mind stops working well---cant sleep that night---next morning you are sure you will flunk!! ---EXACTLY SAME IS THE SCENARIO WITH MOST OF THE STUDENTS WHO DON’T MAKE THROUGH THE ENTRANCE EXAM. You must have seen that many studious guys also cant succeed in entrance exams—this is the reason---ill management of the last hour!! This is the most crucial time for exam preparation—however, we cant make optimum use of it---with the resultant effect that all our hard work of 1 year goes down to drain!! So what is the best way of preparing in the last day? I have following recommendations:
1. Study as much as you can. Some people advocate that you need to relax or keep mind fresh by not studying on the day before exam—but I find it very detrimental. Revise as much as you can. If you can remember just 1 answer due to your effort on this day, that will make the difference between you being a doctor and not being a doctor. Your future is at stake. Take no chances. Read as much as you can. You can relax and enjoy 1 day later.
2. What things should you focus while studying? This is important question coz you wont have time to revise eth. So you need to revise only three things for all the subjects. One is very important questions, then questions that are confusing or have multiple correct answers depending on the options and finally, the questions that you have made mistakes during model exams. Again this highlights the importance of preparing for this dreadful day from long before keeping a track of these varieties of questions. After you have done this, just scan the entire syllabus just to make sure if there is sth in which you are completely blank.
3. As I had mentioned in “What to do a week before exam?” ; you need to have a set of notes of all subjects especially prepared for this day beforehand. Revise those.
4. If you don’t have notes prepared for this day, revise from the books that you have been studying---provided you have highlighted beforehand.
5. Don’t keep any chapters to be read on this day. This is not a day for new chapters or new books. Only revise what you have already learnt.
6. Don’t attempt model question on this day. There is no time. Revise and revise again.
7. Don’t wake till late night. You might feel sleepy tomorrow in exam. But done sleep too early just to relax—follow your normal schedule.
8. If you are very very tensed at any moment-you may take a break to cool your heated brain. Talk to your parents. See TV for 15-20 minutes. Just relax.
9. Don’t talk to your friends. Don’t call them or receive their calls. They will increase your anxiety.
10. Believe in yourself. Don’t panic. Eth is gonna be alright.
11. Take care of your health. Eat well. Not too much spicy. What if you get loose motion in the middle of exam? So take care of what you eat!
12. Has eth been arranged for tomorrow? Do you know your centre? Do you know the way to reach there? Arrange these stuffs.
13. Preferably go to the centre with your guardian. If you wish, carry your notes to the centre.
14. You may read till the last minute. Its fine. Don’t panic by seeing a huge crowd in the centre.
15. Arrive at the centre a little ahead. Keep time for traffic jams etc.
16. Get rid of your urine just before going to the exam classroom.
17. If you have faith, pray to God. It does help---by increasing your confidence.
18. Don’t discuss ath with your friends in the time between your reaching the centre and starting of the exam.
19. Best of luck! I know you will succeed if you have been following all of my advices sincerely!!
