Here are some tips to help you finish strong:
- Get plenty of quality sleep, try to get 8 hours. Sleep helps alleviate stress, anchors what you've studied and gives you better cognitive performance.
- Eat quality brain food; whole grains, fish, nuts, seeds, fresh fruit and veggies. Healthy, light snacks between meals can help keep blood sugar stable for a long day of testing.
- Minimize your intake of processed & fast foods, sugar and pop.
- Hydrate - 1/2 your body weight in ounces is a requirement for keeping your body and brain well hydrated.
- Keep exercising. Exercise can increase blood supply, oxygen and neural connections, it also reduces stress. Even a 15 minute study break and some kind of exercise, can rejuvenate the brain.
- As much as possible, keep a regular routine of meal times, exercise, waking up and bed times.
- Most of all, have confidence and believe in yourself!
Good luck!
