Get fit for final exam and  feast thereafter

Everyone feels nervous about taking exams. It’s important to remember that an examination is a test of learning, not memory. Examiners want to see evidence that you have drawn on your knowledge to develop a reasoned argument, rather than replicate course notes and textbook facts.
Last-minute revision tips
Although time may be short, you can still make a difference to your grade. Try and priorities; do what you can.
•   Use your revision tools (prompts, diagrams etc) to check final facts
•   Keep calm and consolidate your existing knowledge rather than trying to learn new topics
•   Don’t stay up all night revising; being overtired will not help you to do your best
Dealing with exam nerves
•   Create a revision plan to help you feel in control of the process
•   Find out what is involved in the exam:
o   how much time is allowed
o   how many questions you need to answer
•   Think positive
•   Keep the exam in context – even if you do badly, there will be other options open to you
•   Allow yourself some fun-time each day to relax
•   Eat sensibly – your brain cells need energy to function well. Make sure you drink plenty of water to avoid becoming dehydrated. Dehydration makes you tired and reduces concentration
Exam tips – sitting the exam
Be prepared; find out what is involved in each of the examinations that you are going to sit. Organize yourself the night before and get plenty of sleep.
•   Do take a watch or clock so that you can time your answers
•   Leave for the exam in plenty of time
•   Look through the paper first and mark difficult questions/initial thoughts
•   Select the questions that will best enable you to demonstrate your knowledge to the examiner
•   Look at the marks available and read the questions carefully, following instructions given in the paper (e.g. to show all workings, word limits etc)
•   Pace yourself and allow enough time to answer all the required questions
•   Write as neatly as possible to help the examiner to mark your work. Marking untidy writing is difficult.

"Law students may expect a feast from our respected Ma'am if they do well at exam."...... Dear Riad, my loving colleague, if the 'if' part is okay then it will be my pleasure to do the next. But now I'm afraid whether we could conduct our all exams properly or not. Pray for that.

Ma'am
