Any tips for taking a huge final?

I take a huge final for my online transcriptionist course next week. I know I know the material and I am pretty confident, but I would just like some tips on how to relax and realize I do know the answers since I've spent years in the medical community

I am sure you will do great! One tip that works for me is to condense all the important material to one page of typing and read through several times just before going to sleep. Somehow this seems to "set" the facts in my brain and I remember everything the next morning. Good luck!

Good luck! As you say, you know the answers, so I'm sure it will go very well

Good luck - I can't offer any advice because I am also a terrible test taker and have never been able to squash my anxiety before one.

I'm 30 years old and STILL have nightmares about being back in high school. *shutters* You are braver than I am!

Thanks all. I start Monday and have 48 hours to complete it.

Well-- took it yesterday and today amidst many technical difficulties. Two weeks before I know if I passed. Fingers crossed. On another note, I have great news. May I share?

At least it's over and done now, fingers crossed for you.
