Sometimes the pressure feels so heavy that I start looking for shortcuts, even thinking, "Can I justtake my ged for meor find someone to handle the hard parts?" It’s tempting when you're in a panic, but I realize that won’t actually help my career in the long run. I really want to earn this on my own merit so I can move forward with confidence.
Has anyone else dealt with this kind of "test-day dread"? What are some techniques you used to stay calm and focused during the actual exam? I’m looking for any tips on time management or even just some words of encouragement to keep me on the right track.
