I bring whatever book I happen to be in the middle of and read that to relax. Above all, I try not to watch other people in the room, that totally throws my concentration.
my mini-disc player. I also dont pay any attention to anyone else around me - and I try to avoid talking to people.
I also get pumped - I scream and shout "hell fucing yeah - I'm going to ****in crush the test" - but thats in my bathroom before I go to the test center. I'm serious to - I dont play around. Its me against the test and I always have the mindset that I'm going to destroy it.
I took hourly shots of Mylanta with Pepto chasers........it was because I drank brandy to fall asleep the night before so my stomach was not feeling too happy......
