Just try to relax and breathe, make sure you get your 8 hours of rest and a healthy breakfast, being water and snacks with you and depending where you are, layer up. Don't forget to bring your paperwork!
Good luck!

Just took mine today
Take your time on the questions... I put my hands in my lap after I answered every question to slow me down and really think about the questions
Get a good nights sleep... drink your regular amount of caffeine in the morning, we were told to drink Gatorade before our exam, get a good breakfast
When another SATA would come up, I would stop, close my eyes and just take a deep breath. It helped me from poo-ing in my pants, LOL
drive home BEFORE you do the PVT, I started sobbing when the good pop-up came up

Sob when you get it and sob when you don't get it?
yes, exactly... you don't want to be driving home under any sobbing circumstances!

I think at this point you need to stop worrying/studying and just go with it. there is nothing more you can do, you've studied, you've prepared you need to go in and be as confident as you can be. I didn't study/think about the exam at all the day before
