How to manage exam stress by Dr Olivia Remes?

Managing exam stress is like getting ready for a big playdate, you want to have fun and do your best without feeling too worried.

Exam stress is when your brain feels like it's running a race with no water, and you're not sure if you'll finish strong or trip over a toy on the way. Dr Olivia Remes helps us learn how to calm our brains so we can think clearly, just like taking a deep breath before climbing a slide.

Take breaks, like when you stop playing with your toys to have a snack. This gives your brain time to rest and get ready for the next part of the game.

Practice makes progress, just like learning how to tie your shoes, doing practice exams helps you feel more confident, so you're not caught off guard by surprises.

Think about what makes you smile, like your favorite storybook or a funny joke from your friend. Smiling can make your brain feel lighter and happier, which means it's easier to focus on your work.

You don't need magic, just a little patience and practice, and you'll be ready for any big playdate (or exam)! Managing exam stress is like getting ready for a big playdate, you want to have fun and do your best without feeling too worried.
