Uh-Oh GTs

The OGT that I feel most nervous about would be math. I've always been pretty bad at math, and I hardly ever do well on tests, so a math OGT is a little nerve racking. However, to change these feelings I plan to take online practice tests, study and have friends help me. I always have done better when I have my friends study with me, it makes me feel less self conscious about the material I don't understand and allows me to relax, simply because I know them well. I won't push myself into a stressful frenzy but I will study enough that I'll feel confident that I can get a good grade on the test. Another thing I do to get positive feelings for a test is to wake up early, study, take a break in the afternoon and study at night. This makes me feel like I'm letting the information set in while I'm relaxing in the afternoon, so the night time studying is a form of review. If my feelings towards the math OGT don't change after taking practice test, studying and even receiving help from my friends then I will seek help from one of the tutors or Mr. Vasi himself. My main goal is to restore confidence in this test, and to receive a good grade, I just hope my usual study methods are able to do that.
