How to cope with 2 exams on da same day?

[mystikal]

Any strategies to help to have 2 exams on da same day with only 1 hours apart? I mean i know exams a nearing to an end but its better to share experience since it has already happened to most people. Lols also it gives us the next line  of students some insight on what to do if the problem arises.

I have two exams tomorrow too Physics and Legal. I'm just going to use the time in between to relax. You can't really do too much about it. Don't stress over it too much.

I had methods at 9:00-10:15am last friday followed by economics at 3:00-5:15pm, so quite a gap.

I guess all I would say would be to try and forget about your first exam as much as possible. Put it out of your mind and just try to focus 100% on your next one.

I had 4 exams over the space of two days last year (admittedly, there was a bit more of a gap between them than 1 hour). If you relax in between them you should be alright. Make sure you sleep very well the night before. One exam is pretty tiring, two can really knock you out - but that's not until afterwards. During the actual exams you'll be running on adrenaline and shouldn't have too many problems.

i must agree with the adrenaline part. When i did practice exams for VCD (i.e. only 1 maybe) i could barely do half of it due to boredem and me trying to find anything to procrastinate with. However, in the exam today the time flew by and i was FOCUSED like a mother fucker. there's my $34.50

Forget about the previous one and take a power nap. ~15 minutes.

I had methods then P.E on Monday.
In between, just have a bathroom break, a drink, something to eat, and just try and push anything from the first exam out of your mind.
Silly me sitting in P.E thinking of Tasmania Jones.

But don't try cram or anything, it'll just stress you out.

General exam advice: Don't try 2 learn anything new, but it is a good idea 2 skim thru ur notes 4 a lil while b4 ur exam.

Specific re: 2 exams on 1 day:
Do not try 2 remember anything 4 the other subject while u're skimming thru ur notes 4 ur 1st subject.
Pretend u have only 1 exam.
Once u've finished ur 1st exam, spend bout 5 mins talking bout it 2 get it off ur chest, then push it out of ur mind completely.
Eat, drink a *lil* and g2 toilet (in this time, wiping everything u no bout ur 1st subject out of ur head).
Skim thru ur 2nd exam's notes, or do woteva u do 2 get urself in the 'zone' 4 it.

It is more stressful having 2 exams on 1 day, particularly trying 2 balance ur study in the few days b4 them, but it is perfectly doable.
I had accounting and physics same day 4 mid-years, and legal and physics same day 4 end of years.
I was quite glad that legal was AFTER physics, bcoz the legal exam srsly fked my hand ova from all that speed-writing.

Make sure you sleep very well the night before. One exam is pretty tiring, two can really knock you out - but that's not until afterwards. During the actual exams you'll be running on adrenaline and shouldn't have too many problems.

Well-said, adrenaline actually comes in handy in situations other than u having 2 run fast.

I had 4 exams in 2 days with 1-1.5 hour break in between the two days.
I must admit I felt a little sick and thought I was going to *faint* by the end of the second day. Headaches were really bad, but I somehow pulled through.
I went home with a massive headache on the first day, and planned to do at least one practice exam for the two subjects I had the following day....but couldn't. I ended up not doing anything, but went to bed early.

By the first exam of the second day, I was drained.

But during my breaks, I skimmed through notes, and the text book.

I had spec n bio on the same day. I just went to watergardens during the in between time with another person doing spec

If i had two exams on one day i would probably try and get away from the school for my break (i.e go to the plaza or something) just to take away the stress of the first exam.
