- close your eyes
In your last week before the exam, stay well rested and continue to practice with the test-taking tips and reminding yourself of your two major priorities – pacing and process of elimination. The night before the exam, plan to eat a light meal, don’t study, be well rested for the morning. Be sure to double check your alarm and perhaps have a back
up plan (a friend to call to make sure you are ready)
The Day of the Test
