Tips to help you perform to your best throughout exam season:
听
- Set aside time for breaks: All study schedules should allocate some time for a break. Whether it be a 10 minute break every hour scrolling your phone or talking to a friend. Spending time away from your laptop and books can refresh your mind and leave you feeling relaxed for your next session of study.
