Dear Students,
This is it.
The moment you've been training for all semester.
For the past week or more, you've been studying as hard as you can, so that you can do your very best, and now the time has come.
So as you're cramming in that last-minute paper, I have something to say, as a fellow student:
I believe in you.
I know that around this time, you're probably used to hearing people telling you that you should be studying more, or that you'll miss your deadlines if you're not careful. You may be feeling overwhelmed by the amount of work left to do, especially as your tests approach.
That's why I'm here to tell you that you can do this. You can get through everything finals week has to throw at you, because you are ready for this. You know the material inside and out, and now it's time to trust that you've prepared enough, because there's no use in worrying about things you can't change.
Take a deep breath, relax, get a good night's sleep, drink a glass of water, go on a run to clear your head. Think about what comes next: break.
That's right, regardless of how finals go, you'll still be getting a month-long break in just one week. This is the final stretch, and just a few short days stand between you and freedom.
So do your best and give it your all, but don't forget that there's always next semester if finals don't quite go the way you'd hoped. Any grade can be fixed with hard work.
Lastly: good luck!
Love,
Your Fellow Student
