People are always asking me for last minute tips right before their exam. They are usually starting to get nervous and even a little panicky. I get emails like:
“Brian, I am doing XYZ. I’ve covered everything twice. I took brand X’s full test and I scored an XX%. Do you think I’ll be ok? Is there anything else I can do?”
or
“Brian, I’m way behind and I don’t think I’ve studied enough. My exam is in 3 days and I’m starting to panic. Is there anything you recommend me doing.”
My answer is exactly the same to both of these people. It begins with “Take some slow, deep breaths and then back away from the ledge.”

There are three things I recommend very strongly during the week leading up to your exam. I created a video series to talk with you about each of them. The first two videos cover tips on mindset. Things you can do to remain calm, confident and be in the best place to pass your exam. The third video will be more about getting through content quickly and building confidence right before your exam.
All three of these are simple to do, but be careful. Jim Rohn often said “What’s easy to do is also easy not to do.”
Here is a link to video #2 where we discuss the one powerful thing you can do the night before your exam to boost your confidence.
