If you want to boost your student profile for college applications and maybe even qualify for some college credits, taking AP courses in high school is a great way to do it. Of course, taking AP exams can result in some test anxiety as the end of the school year approaches. That’s why we wanted to share these tips to help you get the best results without increasing your stress levels.
- Get sufficient rest – There is no amount of cramming for a test that is going to help more than a consistent sleep schedule and a clear mind on the day of the exam. And remember that teenagers often need more than the usual 8 hours per night of sleep.
- Stay focused on your goals – We know summer is right around the corner, but now is not the time to be distracted by dreaming about summer with friends, what your summer job will be like, or even your future college plans. Stay focused on today and get the best grades on your exams.
- Keep active – If you want your brain to operate at its best, optimal blood flow is a must. That requires regular exercise – especially cardio.
- Believe in yourself – Think positive thoughts and manifest success on your AP exams!
