Any exam tips and advice?

So next week I have my first ever exams (I'm in year 10- Australia). I'm freaking out to the max!





I know I'm capable of doing them well, but I'm crippled by anxiety and stress and every time I go to revise my brain feels like it's turned to mush. I feel so under-prepared, lazy and hopeless. My anxiety is getting worse, no matter how much breathing exercises I do.





So any advice?





Thanks :)Any exam tips and advice?
Make sure to allow for plenty of time when traveling to the exam location.





4. Enter an exam well-rested.





5. Start with the easy questions. Do not get stuck on difficult ones, but put those questions aside and return to them later.





6. Often, first impressions are best. Therefore, do not change your answers unless you are absolutely certain that you have made a mistake.





7. Read the question very carefully. Consider what precisely is being asked. If the question demands four arguments, then give four, not three or five. Do not write more than required in the hope that the people marking the exams will select the correct answers.





8. The so-called ‘Open exam questions’ demand that you compose the entire answer yourself: make sure you write clearly.





9. In the case of multiple choice questions: think of your own answer first before looking at the answers listed on the page.





10. When you are finished, check carefully whether you have answered all the questions.Any exam tips and advice?
