Test Anxiety Tapping TipsTest anxiety can and does ruin tests. And tapping can and does eliminate and reduce test anxiety. I worked with another Chiropractic student so that he could break his habit of rushing through tests. He wanted a better score. And it worked immediately. He slowed down considerably! ....And learned that he needed test taking skills. (See "Test Taking Tips" below to hear the rest of his story and the 'bump in the road' that indicates how important test taking skills are - especially when you have test anxiety!) He learned what he needed and earned 100% on his next exam. And it's an exam that most people did NOT even get an 'A' on! If you are unfamiliar with tapping, please check the instructions here: Leave "Test Anxiety and go to "Meridian Tapping" *Remember, this isn't a 'quick fix.' It works faster than anything else I've found, but it does take repetition. So check back here if you'd like to tap with the video again, or just use this website to learn the technique and tap often! See what happens if you tap on this for ten minutes a day for three weeks! Test Taking TipsAfter tapping, the student I told you about above slowed down, but he didn't have certain test taking skills. He changed answers. His first answer turned out to be correct!! He got a "B" on his first test after tapping because he didn't have the skills.SO...below are some great tips to help you do your best: 1. Come in prepared with sharpened pencils. 2. Eat a grounding breakfast - grains and proteins. (This is not the morning for fruits!) 3. Get a good night's sleep the night before. Really. Cram 2 nights before the test if you're going to cram. 4. When you're taking multiple choice, don't change your answer unless you are 100% (That's right 100%) sure that your answer is wrong. Usually the gut is right. 5. If you're not sure about an answer, circle the one that your gut tells you is right with a little 'wing' sticking out. This will remind you to come back and check it again. 6. Read ALL the answers to multiple choice questions. Many answers are missed when the last option is something like "Both A and C are correct." Those are generally the last choice. 7. For written exams, formulate an outline for your answer before writing it. Make sure that you are answering every aspect of the question. 8. If you're not sure how to answer a question, go back to it after finishing the rest of the test. Sometimes you will find an answer in the other questions.
