It is natural to get nervous before an exam, but it should not affect you to such an extent that you are unable to prepare properly or participate in your exam.
Exam anxiety can be many things, including:
- That ‘your mind goes blank’
- Concentration difficulty
- Frustration, sadness and self-blame
- Sleeping difficulty
- Nausea, palpitations and rapid breathing
The General Study Counselling at SDU have several offers for you. For example, you can have an individual talk about your exam experiences or take part in group sessions for students with exam anxiety. Exam anxiety is individual and can take many forms. Even if you don’t recognise any of the above examples, you may still have exam anxiety.
