THE TEST DAY

HAH !! Finally there!!! Some quick tips:



1) Stop studying one day before your exam. YESSSS… relax!!! Watch a movie (English, if that helps!)…. Treat yourself to your favorite pastime activity. Do everything you can to soothe the nerves. Sleep on time. And more importantly get up on time (hee hee!) :D

2) Go to the center 1.5 hrs before time. No harm getting there earlier… you’d just get adjusted to the atmosphere and temperature.

3) First comes the AWA section. 1 hour. Should gear you up for the significant part of the exam. You templates should be a life saver here. There is a break… Take it even if you don’t want to. Just go out of that space!! Eat a bar of chocolate. Drink water. And yeah.. go back to your seat on time, coz if you don’t, the timer will start and your test will start without waiting for you !!!!

4) Next is the Math section. Remember the first 10 questions are very important. Focus. Give a lil more time to it.. but of course don’t stick to them !! Keep a look at the clock..always! Next is the break.. TAKE IT.. JUST TAKE IT. Very very important…. Coz the next section is more taxing!

5) Eat a bar of chocolate (btw chocolates is the fastest means of energy. Gulp down energy drink.. something like RedBull…. Trust me, you’ll need it when you look at the RCs!!!)

6) Start with Verbal… I’ve heard of many cases where people fall short of time here… so please keep a look at that clock… all the time..

7) When your done, Take a deep breath and pray and ask for your score.

8) Of course you have an option to cancel your scores before looking at it. This would clear all records that you had ever given this exam. But once you see the score you cannot cancel it. I have always advised everyone NOT to cancel the score.. not worth it after all the pain… Jus go ahead and trust your hard work n stars!!!
