Test Anxiety Anxiety is the
strongest deterrent to successful test taking. It interferes with your ability to effectively use your cognitive processes. Anxiety blocks the search and retrieval process, so that knowledge held in your
memory bank is inaccessible. We have seen cases where an individual has a thorough knowledge of the material but gets into the examination and freezes or their mind goes blank. At the start
of the examination, the best way to relax yourself is to take 4 to 5 deep breaths, inhaling and exhaling slowly. This will relax your entire body. If during the examination you feel that you are experiencing
anxiety, stop and take 30 seconds to repeat these deep-breathing exercises. This will calm you down and allow your mind to think more clearly. A mind under high anxiety is one that is not thinking rationally
and you will not make correct choices. Knowing what to expect and being prepared for the examination is the best defense against test anxiety, that worrisome feeling that keeps you from doing your best.
