With finals week quickly approaching, stress are high and work is piling up. But in the midst of all the upcoming chaos, there are a few things all students should keep in mind.
1. You're not going to die.
Even though it feels like you cannot go on and this is where it ends, you are going to make it through. Don't lose hope.
2. Get some sleep.
You are going to do so much better on your test if you close the book early to catch some extra sleep. Take a nap, do whatever you have to do in order to be well rested and ready to ace your exams.
3. Relax.
I know you are stressed out and have a million things to do, but don't forget to relax. Make some tea, listen to some music, and take some time to chill out in the middle of the chaos.
4. You are prepared.
You've spent the whole semester preparing for this moment, and you can do it. Don't doubt yourself and go into the week with confidence.
5. Don't stress.
I know it is hard, but the more you stress the worse it is going to be. Try to do one thing at a time and take each class as it comes. It is not worth going crazy over.
6. It will be over soon.
Just think, soon enough you will be at home, lying in your bed, watching Netflix, and finals will be a faint memory in the distance. Just power through and you have a month without a single class or test.
8. You are going to ACE them.
You are going to SLAY these finals. If you dream it, you can do it. Do your best and that is all you can do, don't doubt your abilities.
9. Grades do not determine your worth.
Your self worth is not determined by the grades you get on your finals. Do not get down on yourself if you do poorly. You are an awesome person and that cannot be reflected by a stupid test.
Good luck to everyone in all of your finals! Remember all of these things and you will be golden. Keep calm and survive finals!
