Default sooo excited!!


SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
My DAT is in two days and I just can't wait to get it over with. I am nervous and still feel like I don't know anything but to think that in just two days I can start living life again .....of course I may not do well and need to retake in three months but I try not to think like that!

Anyway, I am just super excited that my DAT date is almost here!!

Since you are thinking this way that means you are self-confident but you you don't feel it
if you are not good you wouldn't be excited... you will do fine
I hope I will have your pre-test feeling instead of being stressed

Just keep saying I will do good

Good luck to the both of you!! I will be looking forward to some good breakdowns!

Mine is about a week and a half out, and I feel the same. Like I don't know anything but I don't have the excited factor. Just the nervous feeling.

It's because right now you may feel as if you don't know anything (but you actually do, lol), which is OK---use that as your ammo to want to study + learn more, NOT to get stressed.

Good luck everyone

Good luck! Please tell us about your experience ! I will be taking a Xanax on the day I take mine. I am so nervous and mine is 5 weeks away. I'm just plugging away.

It's great that you are excited to take the test, that usually means you are well prepared and confident. I had the mindset that "I just can't wait to be done with this" and I did really well, so I think part of that is confidence. Good luck.

Good luck everyone
Good point! I think I like you! haha

I also think I get stressed because there is so much that I could go over and some days I'm jumping all over the place with it and still feel like I haven't got anything done. I'll keep what you said in mind, thanks! Good luck to you and jgdg on Monday!!

My test isn't even until August 25th but I feel that way too! Sometimes I feel like I stress myself out so much to the point where all I want to do is take a nap.... haha I can't imagine what my life is going to be like in about 2 weeks! Ah!! Time goes by too fast!

Good luck to everyone Can't wait to read some more amazing breakdowns!
