One of the most curious places to watch is the outside of an examination hall minutes before the exam commences. We see tensed students trying to grasp the maximum from their huge texts,others just flipping through their notes,some running around for pen and pencils and still others walking around as if on a visit to the zoo.What do you do just before an exam and what do you advice others to do?

I go straight to the toilet, because sometimes with all the stress, peeing is the only thing I think of with all the panic...lol
Then I flip through pages of diagrams especially if it's science, to quickly reinforce the concepts... 5 mins before the exam I relax and try not to think about anything.

Just before the i think i would be trying to keep my mind calm and keep it under control.
This will help me to remeber the answer for the questions.This is very helpful if the question is not based just on textbooks but a little bit of logic is needed. In the cases like above where thinking is a must it is better we should have control over our mind.
Apart from i will make all the things needed for exam like pencils, pens, calculators .. .... etc is with me.
This is all what anyone is needed and is also what advise is to others.
Wish you all good luck with all your exams.

before an exan I usually feel vert pissed off, like: :@ :@!! :@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD or something like that (=
I don't like to be there or to do that, and even less I don't like to wait and even lesser I don't like all the other people running like chicken. it really sux a lot to me, but even being like this I stay still and quiet, if you just touch me I'll kill you xD but nothing else.

I usually do all my cramming the day before the exam. Sometimes I even stay up as late as I can, or until my brain can still soak in what I'm reading. I just make sure that I get at least 6 hours of sleep the night before. I make sure that I have everything I need for the exam like pencil, pens, erasers and some extra pens before going to bed. :o)
On the day of the exam, I normally read through notes on subject areas I'm rusty on. I then make sure that I leave the last 30 minutes doing other things. Chatting about none school related subject helps. Just make sure that you're not thinking of the exam so that your mind can decipher everything you're read. Also making sure that your mind have rested a bit before it goes into overdrive.
This worked for me anyway. Although it is good to seek advise on how other people prepare, I would advise you to find your own way of preparation. Find a way that works for you. Good Luck.
