After the Exams
- Avoid depressing post-mortems with fellow students. The exam is over, and there is nothing you can do about it now! There is no point in punishing yourself, especially if you have exams still to come.
- If you have made mistakes in the exam, try to learn from them and apply what you have learnt to the next exam. Think about how to avoid making similar mistakes in the future. For example, if you found that you ran out of time, analyse which area you spent too long on - did you spend too long writing out your essay plan, or deciding which question to do?
