If you have worked hard at ordinary times, there is no need to be nervous. You can recall the examination points you reviewed in your mind, find and fill the gaps, as long as you have mastered most of them, you will have no problem.

However, some parents completely ignore their children's objective strength and set high goals for their children, which will bring great psychological pressure to their children. Of course, they are not willing to discuss learning with you, and they naturally dislike your proposed results and rankings. To be honest, the pre exam scores and rankings are no longer meaningful, so don't talk too much about them, and don't urge or check too much, just let the children study quietly. As a parent, we should encourage children to "do their best in learning, and it doesn't matter whether the results are good or bad". Giving children a reassuring pill is the best way to reduce stress.
3. Get enough sleep
Before the exam, the brain must get enough rest, nourish enough spirit, and store brain energy, so as to provide powerful spiritual guarantee for thinking, memory, logic, reasoning and creative thinking in the exam. Therefore, examinees must adjust their sleep time according to their personal habits and physical and mental status before the exam to ensure a good and sufficient sleep. Do not let the brain be overloaded and tired just to review. When the brain is tired, it is often more efficient, and it is often more effective.
