Especially with the above in mind, it’s vital to focus on your wellbeing in the run up to the exam. Focus on setting realistic goals that give you time to see friends, exercise, and eat and sleep as normal! Study sensibly, with breaks and healthy snacks on hand. Try to integrate studying into a healthy lifestyle, rather than have it become your new lifestyle for a set period of time. In practice, this especially means that you must avoid last-minute revision, cramming, and staying up all night trying to learn vital facts before the exam. It’s a manageable amount of content that ties in with your job, and therefore you will do best in the exam if you begin to focus on it as you move into the final third of the year, rather than seeing it as something that can be revised for within a short period of time. Remember, if either the pressure of upcoming the exam or the pressure of combining your studying with your work become too much and you feel overwhelmed, make sure to talk to someone – be it your tutor, a friend, a colleague – anyone that you feel can help and provide support.
