Be sure to rest the day before. Don't freak out like I did lol. You know what you know. Although a little anxiety is always good and can help focus you.. too much is obviously not good. When you're waiting in the waiting room, take deep breaths and think positive. Tell yourself you can do it!! There were other people my age while I was waiting to be checked in.. and it was nice to take to them. Helped ease the nerves.. and helped me realize that I wasn't the only one that was freaking out. During the test, take deep breaths every once and awhile, especially when you start to feel overwhelmed. This definitely helped calm me down, and brought my focus back to the test. Also, take the "unscheduled" breaks if you need to!! Good luck!! You can do this!!

I'm very sorry! I took the Kaplan review course and followed their study plan. I mainly focused on answering their practice questions. I don't know how the Hurst program is set up, but I really liked Kaplan because they taught me "how to think like the test." I did all of their tests, answered all the Qbank questions, and went back and reviewed every single question that I answered, right or wrong. I was really nervous doing just this, because I didn't think I was getting the content review that I needed... but in reviewing questions and making sure I understood the rationale, I did a lot more content reviewing than I thought. Kaplan also has online video lectures of content review, and videos of the program director talking you through questions.. Didn't really use these because I went to the class, but I can definitely see how it could be helpful for others. Good luck!! I know it may be difficult right now, but stay positive, focused, and motivated!! You can do this!
