Ways to relieve exam stress

Some people have relatively poor psychological quality, especially some students who tend to be nervous before exams. This nervousness will be more serious during the exam. They can't remember the questions they could have done during the exam. In fact, this situation is related to psychology. If you want to relieve exam tension, you should start from many aspects. Let's take a look at some ways to relieve exam tension.

Ways to relieve exam stress

1. Proper rest method:

When you feel nervous and irritable, you can stop studying and take a proper and active rest, such as moving your hands and feet, doing some exercises, or washing your face, because exercise can rest the brain, relieve fatigue, and also vent emotions.

2. Divert attention:

Before entering the examination room, don't keep thinking about which questions you don't understand, and don't stay alone. At this time, you can do high-intensity exercise for a minute or two, or laugh loudly with your classmates, shifting your attention from the examination room to playing. Playing is enjoyable, and tension is naturally relieved.

3. Deep breathing method:

In the examination room, deep breathing is a good way to relieve tension, because deep breathing can oxygenate the brain, slow down the heart rate, and shift the attention from the source of tension to the body's sensations until your breathing becomes steady. In the examination room, don't be reluctant to spend time adjusting your nervous state, because if you don't eliminate negative emotions and are disturbed by them, you may waste more time.

Since normal tension can also generate a large amount of heat in the body, you can do some light exercise before the exam to dissipate the heat. You can walk, jog, swing, and kick your legs. You can clench your hands and then release them, allowing your muscles to tighten and then relax. You can twist a part of your body forcefully during the test. In this way, the tension will gradually disappear.
