Anxiety effecting accuracy

by showbiz » Wed Aug 08, 2012 1:49 pm
The biggest problem for me is test pressure building up during the test, which causes me to get questions wrong which is, exactly what GMAT tests you on.

Can anyone recommend any strategies to deal with this kind of pressure?

Our academic director, Brian, put together a blog post with some tips that I think could be useful. https://www.veritasprep.com/blog/2011/04 ... y-anxiety/

I use it with my students, and it's been a big help.
