Read the exam Guide
- Make sure to read the exam guide from your Course Manager thoroughly before your exam. If you have any doubts then ask your Course Manager. You should receive an exam guide a minimum of 7 days before your exam.
Train your communication skills
- Your posture, your tone of voice and your body language. This is also relevant online!
Try to record a video, while you practice
- Or ask a peer/your mother to give you feedback on both the content and your presentations skills.
Make a plan
- Specify to yourself, what you will be doing on the actual day of your exam. What do you need to do in order to stay calm and get hold of your nerves? Consider how long before the time of your exam, you will show up at the exam room. Prepare for waiting time.
And remember!
- Your lecturer and external examiner ask questions to help you fulfill the course goals. Enter the discussion with a positive attitude and do not be afraid to ask them to elaborate or rephrase their questions if you need it.
- They are not your enemy – they will help you – and basically just want you to perform well.
