Top Tips for Getting Through Exams Alive
After 4 years of exam experience in the British education system, I felt I was finally qualified to express my opinions/advice/warnings about the big scary world of exams. Whether these are mock exams, GCSEs or A-levels, all of these tips and tricks should save you a lot of time, energy, and stress. Before you start wondering why you should listen to this probably straight A* student about how she conquered exams with her eyes closed, let me reassure you. I am an average student, with average grades, perhaps I had to retake an exam once upon a time (we don't talk about that). I was once a naïve student who believed I could learn my whole 2-year French course in 3 weeks (spoiler alert! I can not). I wish I had stumbled upon this info and actually digested it for the last four years, oh well, we live and learn. So, here is my unsolicited advice about how not to die between the months of May and June.
