Exam anxiety

During tests or exams, do you…

• Feel like you "go blank"?
• Make "silly" mistakes?
• Find your self thinking "I can’t do this", "I’ll never pass" or "I’m stupid"?
• Feel dizzy or like the room is closing in on you?
• Feel your heart racing or find it difficult to breathe?
• Suddenly remember the answers when the exam is over?
• Get much better marks on assignments than in exams?

If you answered "yes" to some of these questions, you may be experiencing exam anxiety.
