Now let’s dive into to how we are going to avoid sweating profusely in the examination hall even if we haven’t prepared enough.
To avoid sweating profusely in the examination hall, begin you day by waking up early. Take a bit of meditation for about five to ten minutes. Doing these make you feel the day and everything that is in it is yours. The fear for failure reduces while giving you an upper hand over the exams. Avoid being dull and which is why you must own the day before going into the examination hall. Don’t bother yourself with any reading in that very morning in order not to get confused.
After having own the day, when is time for you to sit for the exams, try to report early. In the case of large examination, allow everyone to sit before arriving creates some form of tension. This is because others would have their eyes on you as if you have done something wrong. Try as much as possible to report and occupy your seat early. Though you haven’t prepared fully but doing this diminishes the feeling of reluctance and allows you to do other things with vigour. You are now on the path of not sweating profusely in the examination hall.
Now the actual task begins, when the questions papers are set before you, to avoid sweating, do not rush to answer any question simply because you have to answer all the questions required of you. Mistakes are the beginning of getting soaked in your sweat, don’t rush. Once you make the first mistake you lose the control over successes chalked.
Note these very well
Glance through the entire questions with no intension of starting, but just to pick the few ones you can lay hands on easily. Note, don’t force yourself to select up to the number of questions required of you to be answered. For example, if you are to answer six questions, getting three questions you can easily lay hands put you on the path of success. You don’t have to score 100 percent to get ‘A’ or ‘1’; 75 percentage score can fetch you such a grade.
After selecting your best three questions, begin attempting the one you can answer with all ease. This releases off the tension and the possibility of sweating.
Since you have few questions to answer, time yourself very well. Example if the paper if paper is 1 hour 30 minutes and you are to answer 6 questions, you have to spend 15 minutes on each question. Since you didn’t select all 6 questions, you have ample time at your disposal to think through and supply tangible answers to the questions you have selected.
