Exam stress busting tips.

Exam times are here and i have seen from my experience that we, the students, often panic before an exam because we are so worried about our performance. This makes it even harder to do well. What should we do? This is the topic i wanted to explore/ Though in my previous post "de-stress before you the examination hall" i have highlighted some of the tips that i had from my experience of taking AeSI exams.
