(1). What should I do if I am tempt to cheat?

Don’t cheat in an exam. There’s a simple answer. You’re only fooling yourself. The likelihood is that you’ll get caught. A teacher - they call them invigilators in the examination room itself - is patrolling the examination room and there might be more than one. If you’re trying to cheat by looking at something, a piece of paper, or whatever that you’ve taken in, there’s always the temptation to look up and see if the invigilator is there. From the invigilator’s standpoint, they will note that, and you could not only be ineligible from that examination you’re sitting, but you could be not entitled from examinations for a number of years. Cheating in exams is a very, very serious thing, so don’t do it. If you’re at the point of having to cheat, then the likelihood is that you’re not going to do well on the examination at all.

(2). Everyone has answered differently to me, what should I do?

If everyone has answered differently to you, there’s nothing you can do to influence the examination paper that you’ve just taken but there’s an awful lot you can do with the one you’re about to take. Avoid your friends outside the examination room, don’t have these discussions. Go home, put the examination paper in a drawer and don’t look at it again until your own grandchildren ask to see it. It is of no importance anymore. The examiner will make a decision if you’ve done well on the examination or not. Concentrate on the next paper you’re going to take and that’s where you can make a dissimilarity.

 (3). Everyone finishes before me, what can I do?

It doesn’t matter whether everybody walks out after 1 minute; you’re there for whatever time of the test. It’s your paper that’s going to be marked, and it’s your score that you’re paying notice in, not other popular grades. You don’t be familiar with what they’ve done on the examination paper. Forget about everyone about you and concentrate on your own paper.

(4). Hearing what other people have written makes me think I have answered wrongly, what should I do?

It doesn’t mean anything. It’s your examination, and it’s your paper that’s going to be marked, so think on what you do. There are rushers and planners in examinations. Some people just go ahead without understanding the question paper properly, and they give the wrong answers to the question because they’ve not understand writing the text carefully. They write many, many notes and It doesn’t substance, it’s a load of refuse what they’re symbols. It won’t influence your examination mark finally. So think on your own paper and ignore everybody else.

Well, before you get to the exam room, you should have the right move toward from the very start. Assuming it’s in the morning; you should try and walk to school, if that’s possible. You should avoid friends, because they can start worrying you. They’ll ask you how you do particular questions and so forth, and they’ll confuse you perhaps. They’ll say “No, you don’t do it this way, you do it that way.” So, it’s your examination and make sure you’re isolated as far as you can be.

When you go into the examination room, take six deep breaths and have glucose sweet, if the school allows you to do that, to help power go to your brain. Sit down and take another six deep breaths if that’s essential, and when the examination paper comes round, make sure you read it properly. You’ll only get marks if you answer the questions, and you’ve got to more often than not choose the questions you want to do, so make sure you take time to do that.

Make sure that you decide the ones that you think are going to be the best for you. Start, probably, with the easier ones, those you think that you are able to do, and build up to the ones which might be a little bit more difficult for you. Certainly, getting into that examination room is crucial; it’s crucial that you get in there with the right frame of mind, remembering that it’s your examination and what goes on around and about you have got nothing to do with you, so just ignore it and get on with your paper.
