To everyone testing in the upcoming days or weeks: DON'T STRESS IT!! These test results don't define you; never have, never will. I don't care if you're a junior in high school or a middle-school babe like moi; these tests do NOT measure your worth in life and despite what you may think, they do NOT measure your cognitive level !!! All they do is measure your ability to meet the standards that your state has. And those standards are just like anyone else's standards: if you don't meet them, that's perfectly okay. Now, I'm not telling you to FAIL these tests. I'm just saying that as long as you gave it everything you've got and you're content with the amount of effort you put it, then you should be proud of yourself and your achievements!! To make sure you bring the best out of yourself, here's some tips that I use: 1.) Go to sleep early. I'm not joking, it ACTUALLY helps. Wow, really? 2.) Eat!!! A!!! Lot!!! Idec if it's junk food, just eat SOMETHING, or your hunger will distract you from the test in front of you. 3.) Bring a jacket!!! Your test environment might be chilly and it's safer to bring a jacket just in case than to suffer miserably in the testing room ;-; 4.) Take deep breaths before starting. Yoga breaths. It REALLY helps nerves; nerves can take away about 50% of your testing performance, so relax and think about the test as an unimportant factor in your life. Which, it really is. 5.) Make sure all your materials for the test are ready beforehand; being unprepared at the last minutes causes unneeded stress (well, for me it does) and might also distract you from your exams! And finally, I BELIEVE IN YOU!!! You all have made it this far through the school year- you're almost out of héll!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!💜 ~Sakura (sorry this all sounds cheesy, but I really do wish the best for all of you testtakers bc imma be testing this coming week too *sweats*)
