Do some Exercise: we all know that exercise is a good thing to consider to kick start a day, it helps boost our energy, we are not talking about heavy workouts but consider yoga and aerobic exercises which will definitely help you. You can also consider running if you wish to but don't make yourself tired.

Think positively: Don't think about how hard the previous exam questions were and how you performed in it. Always focus on your success and think positively and please don't spend time with your nervous friends because there is a possibility of them transferring negative energy to you

Keep enough materials: while going to take an exam you must make sure that you will never run out of materials. What happens when your pen stopped working in the middle of an exam? So avoid such problems keep extra pair of pen and pencil and don't forget calculators
