Not sure what to bring to your exam? Here's my ultimate Exam Pack!

So it's your first UNIVERSITY exam and you're not sure what you should bring with you? Well it's a good thing you decided to read this (on your study break of course!).

So here's my ULTIMATE EXAM PACK!!! (Insert awesome sound effect or music here)

What should you bring...
1.  A Fully stocked Pencil Case...what does that look like?
--Well you'll need  PENS...at least 2, 3 if you have time to stop at staples before your exams.
--Pencils, if you're filling in bubbles on multiple choice exams you'll want to make sure you have at least a few pencils.
--A Sharpener and Eraser. Even the best of us make mistakes sometimes!



In case you forgot
what it looked like!
2. YOUR STUDENT ID and one other form of OFFICIAL ID. Why bring two pieces of ID? Well just like matching socks whenever you actually need your ID that's the ONE time that you can't find it...so if you have two then you'll at least be able to find ONE when you need it.
**Some exams are REALLY SPECIFIC and REQUIRE that you have your University Student ID. So try not to lose it on the day of the exam!**

You won't need
every book you own!
3. A SMALL backpack/ purse. You won't be allowed to take notes or books into the exam room so it's best to leave them at home. Also having a LOT of stuff with you will only slow you down when you want to find a seat or when you want to leave.
--Some people think that cramming before the exam will help them to remember things better but the truth is...cramming will only make you more anxious.


4. Bottled beverage...NO FOOD!! Having water or juice with you can help keep you hydrated, especially if your in a 3 hour exam. Please don't bring food into an exam, chances are you won't be allowed to eat during the exam, if you are brining food then eat either BEFORE or AFTER the exam.

5. POSITIVITY! I know it might seem a little silly but having a positive attitude can really improve your performance. So try not to be too hard on yourself, no one can know EVERYTHING just know that you've done your best to prepare, stay positive and take a few deep breaths before you walk in and everything will be fine!



Good LUCK everyone!!

As always remember to take it one day at a time and catch me in the Zone!
