Study tip #5

Make exam conditions normal

It is worth trying to keep your study space similar to how you will be during the exam. The more
normal your exam conditions feel, the less stressed you will get - and that will make it easier to remember what you need to know.

Try things like wearing the same clothes you will wear at your exam, don't listen to music while doing practice exams, have a similar desk set up.

In particular wear the same deodorant you will wear the day of your exam - you would be surprised how closely connected your memory is to you sense of smell. Every little thing that is the same when you are studying to when you are doing your exams will help those memories surface that you need the most.
