The night before

  1. 1

    Check the when and where.

    Session time and where you are sitting it, from your own timetable. Set the alarm now, not later.

  2. 2

    Pack the bag once.

    Pens and a spare pen, water, and only the materials your course allows. SCSA lists them for each exam.

  3. 3

    One short closed-notes check.

    Pick three things you would want to write tomorrow. Say them with the notes closed, check, fix one gap. Use the closed-notes check

  4. 4

    Then stop for the night.

    Sleep will do more for tomorrow than one more hour of rereading. The page will still be there at breakfast.

that’s it. that’s the routine.
