that you get 1-2 days before your exam and you know there are things you still need to study but your brain is about to shut down. I miss college days, when studying 8 hours for a test was overkill 🙁 Anyone know what im talking about?

Yup. I think I had it before each exam. It's totally normal. I don't know anyone who felt completely ready before the exam, and there really is a tremendous amount of material to study…

Hang in there! Just a few more days and it will be behind you! Don't let nerves get to you and try to study and do questions as much as you can.

Don't forget to breathe 🙂

Good luck!

Knowing this could be my last exam ever adds pressure! I'm so ready to end this entire process!

I know that feeling all to well. It was especially bad with AUD and REG. Just keep at it but don't burn yourself out and try to relax at lest for a few moments before the exam.

Like Acct said, breathe! Good luck! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed. Don't forget the red panties on exam day 🙂

I am taking FAR tomorrow! I definitely know the feeling, but I will stop at a decent hour tonight, get a good nights sleep with the help of a glass or two of wine, and be ready to go tomorrow.

@KasiaS, It's a shame a girl doesn't have any red panties. I'm going to buy some tonight when I take a break. SMH!

@ATLsFTP, it's a shame indeed! That has been my ritual for major exams since high school and served me well. You should invest is a pair. 🙂

There comes a point when you realize that more studying isn't getting you anywhere and what will probably help you the most is a good night of sleep and a clear mind going into the test. Taking BEC tomorrow at 1 and stopped studying around 4:30 today. Praying that I remember everything! I knew I had to stop studying when I started panicking thinking I had forgotten everything from the first chapter. Red panty day tomorrow!
