Nervous white taking the test?

I'm curious as how people dealt with the anxiety/nervousness not only leading up to the test but also on test day. Did you guys find that you were a little too nervous while taking the test? It will, arguably, be the most important test I will take so far and (knowing myself) I'm afraid the nervousness will get to me during test day (which won't be until summer).

I'm scared it will be like me playing sports...I'm a pretty good bball player but when it comes to actual games I become nervous and perform below than what I'm capable of. Thought I'd get some advice from people who have been through it.

I was really nervous during the first few bio questions but fell into a groove after that and was fine.

You will be concentrating on the test and you will not think of being nervous. Basically you will be too focused to think of anything other than answering the questions correctly.

Just listen to some music that makes you angry/ pumped up... I just wanted to get it over with after all the months it took away from me... blasted DAT

I recommend foo fighters, linkin park, kings of leon or metallics. Worked for me!

lol haha the lines in TFE will be moving on him. He will have floating lines and rotating keyholes. No fun there. and Angles lol, they will be forever changing so that at one moment there would be one angle biggest and then a second later that angle could be the smallest. Would actually make for a pretty funny test.

Yea I was seeing blurry for a minute or so, but after that I just thought to my self I aint fckin retaking this sht 90 days from now and did fine. If you know your material you'll answer your questions before time runs out leaving you a little relaxed
