but i just can't do it at exams! sometimes i feel worried about the time management, i keep glancing at the watch! my parents particularly want me to do well in maths and once it was success and another it's not- can someone please help me????????

Answer 1

If you do all of the homework assignments then you should know the material.  And if you know the material, you should be fine when it comes to exams.  If it's the pressure of an exam you can't handle, try timing yourself when you do your homework assignments.  If it's taking you 2 hours to finish, probably due to distractions and interruptions, then try doing it in less and less time.  Then a 1 hour exam should come natural.

Answer 2

Just always keep yourself relaxed. the night before you have an exam take a bath and have an early night. stressing wont make it easier :)

make sure when you study your in a quiet, relaxing place. wherever it is.

my daughter practised for all of her gsce's in my bathroom and she aced them !

Answer 3

Continue Practice at home, you 'll find problems in exam similar to the ones you solved at home and you can improve your score at exam!  

Answer 4

Maybe it's the level of math that you're in that's confusing you.  Have you switched from Algebra to Trigonometry?  If so, they're different disciplines, and I'd recommend getting a tutor.

Answer 5

i hate maths! your very lucky to love it!

when you are in an exam i know its like hard to do...) but lock everyone else out, and imagine your just at home revising? or just generally doing a test, don't think about how serious they are, because that just puts more pressure on yourself if you get me:P good luck x

Answer 6

Take several deep breaths and then look at the 1st question. Ask yourself: "what precisely is wanted and what information is given me?".

Analyze how you might solve this problem. If nothing comes to mind and you have no clue, go to the next question leaving room to answer this question if time permits.

You will soon come to a problem that you can easily solve and your confidenec should rise. You can do this stuff! keep going and go back to the unanswered questions and I'll bet you can do them.

Answer 7

Don't think on time, just concentrate on the problem. Get a good nights sleep and eat breakfast.  

Answer 8

The reason is that u get nervous abt the time during exams......the best way to handle this is try practising problems by fixing time

do this everyday..........try to finish within the fixed time..........am sure as days go u'll get used  with the time constraint.........

practice makes a man perfect and am sure u can be perfect too :) all the best !!!

Answer 9

Try doing a lot of revision before your exams
