Don’t forget (Overlooked needs during review)

Review period will definitely overwhelm you, not only with information but with your priorities. There are a number of things that are as important as studying. Like we mentioned in our previous posts, you have to be ready mentally, spiritually, emotionally and physically. Here is a list of some things you might be forgetting to do while you’re studying:

1.       Sleep!! (Rest or power naaaap!)

Never underestimate the power of rest! You might ignore the number of hours you’ve been sleeping as the board exam approaches… Seriously. The anxiety of not studying enough will haunt you and might make you stay up late at night. Which, believe me, is very unnecessary especially if the exam is weeks away! Remember to rest your brain and body after a whole day of studying. J

Practice Makes Perfect

Time flies so fast, it’s already August! Have you guys prepared your requirements for PRC? More or less at this time you should completed your requirements in preparation for the exam application; deadline of application will be on September 13, 2015.

Next month will be the mock exam schedule for the review center. Are you ready? I know that mostly would say “NO”, but here is the thing...  no one is actually fully ready for any exam ever. When I scheduled my mock exam last year, E and I chose the 1^st week. At that time, we know that we’re not really that ready for the mock exam.

We chose the earliest schedule because we want to test what we know up to that time frame. After the exam we’ll just review and access the things that we missed in the mock exam. One of the advantage of taking the mock exam earlier is that you can get the chance to check your papers on your own and even review your mistakes. The review center allows the takers to manually check their papers if they want to.
