3 Scientifically Proven Tips on Stress Management for Test Day
It is a truth universally acknowledged that the SAT is one of the greatest stress-inducing tests in existence. Today, I took the SAT. The internet told me that I would never be successful if I flunked this test. My mom told me she wouldn't let me re-take this test ever again. Rumors of even the smartest of kids getting nervous resulting in low marks were spreading throughout the school... The pressure was getting to me. People had such high expectations of me. Whenever they would come to me with kindness and positivity I would just scold them by saying "Don't keep such high expectations because I won't reach them and I'll be the one facing shame, not you." Their shocked faces were expected. After days and days of studying, not studying and then feeling guilty about not studying, the day came closer and closer. I was wrecked with stress and shame. The realization hit me like a truck. I was being counterproductive by being pessimistic and stressed. So, I took it upon myself to actively reduce my stress by following some tips and tricks that I collected from my family and friends and hours of researching on the internet. I tried around 10-15 of these tips that are backed with scientific evidence but these 3 tips were the cream of the cream. On the actual test day, I felt only a healthy amount of stress as compared to my past of skin chewing, leg shaking and blanking out.
