How To Be Successful
Adapt to Different Teachers
*In the classroom, the teachers are in charge and make the rules. Learn to adapt to different personalities, teaching styles and expectations
Be Prepared *Bring iPad, pencils, paper etc. to class and have all assignments completed. When you do you
homework, the lecture makes sense and you can participate in class discussions. Always Do Your Homework *A significant portion of your grade is usually based on homework. Your grade drops every time
you miss an assignment.

10 Ways to Overcome Test Anxiety 1. Be prepared.
Yes, this seems obvious, but it bears repeating. If you feel confident that you’ve prepped thoroughly, you’ll feel more confident walking into the test.
2. Get a good night’s sleep.
3. Fuel up.
Eat a nutritious breakfast before the test and pack smart snacks for ongoing energy. Look for foods that offer a steady stream of nutrients, rather than a sugar high followed by a crash.
4. Get to class—or the testing site—early.
Feeling rushed will only amp up the anxiety.
5. Have a positive mental attitude.
6. Read directions carefully.
7. Just start. After you’ve read the directions, dive right in by making an outline for an essay answer. Or, find some questions you can ace to build up your confidence and momentum.
8. Don’t pay attention to what other people are doing.
Pay attention to your own test and pace, and forget about the other students in the room.
9. Watch the clock.
Stay on pace by scoping out the whole test before getting started. Mentally allocate how much time you’ll spend on each section. If there’s time to recheck, even better.
10. Focus on calm breathing and positive thoughts.
