Here are 10 top tips by educational psychologists:
Get help: ask a teacher or tutor about how to revise, and exam skills - how to work when you are in an exam.
Take short rests during your time of work and revision. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.
Plan your work: revise at times when you know you will work at your best.
Stay healthy: get enough sleep, eat sensibly.
Exercise: you need exercise to work well. Walk, run, play sport - whatever you enjoy.
Be positive: stop thinking about the future and failing.
Do your best: no-one can do more than this.
Be alert: if you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries.
But don't be too relaxed! Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them.
Be sensible: if it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don't do it! In fact, don't even think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. You cannot change what you have written!
