I get really nervous when I’m taking a test or a quiz, because it is really important. For example: if I get a bad grade on the test it will matter, even if I’m doing my homework on A and I got C on my test my grade will go down. So it is really important to study for the test. Don’t wait till the last minute, be really prepared and study hard.

Yes, I always get nervous when I take test , even I am very ready for it. I usually do a training to the test in silence in my house and do whatever who did not prevent me to do that. It was easier to do it with a partner, could be share knowledge with each other and pointing out errors each other . Because the test is very important for the students , this assessment knowledge. Certainly easier to prepare for the test if you are engaged throughout the course well, do his homework, listening to the teacher.

I get really nervous when I take tests, especially if it’s an oral presentation. In order to get a good grade, I start to prepare myself a week before the test. So I have enough time to find all the information I need, go to the library, collect some information from the internet, and get some ideas from friends. It is very important to have a couple of classmates’ phone numbers because you always have questions about your future tests. I usually listen to my classmates’ opinions and suggestions, because they’re very helpful sometimes. Normally I study alone for a test, but if it’s an oral presentation or exam in listening and speaking classes, I practice my speech in front of the mirror or in front of one of my family members. The most delightful test I had was in High school, it was a test in our P.E. class. We did running and I was the second best, and the result surprised me, because I was a bad runner. My P.E. teacher shook my hand and gave me congratulations because she was also shocked. My name was in the school newspaper that year and I was proud of myself.

I do get nervous when I am about to take a test. I think that it is in humans’ nature to be nervous about that. I mean from past experiences and from talking to other students, most all of them get nervous about taking any kind of tests. I don’t think that this feeling ever goes away. It is like being nervous when you go for an interview. Every time you have an interview, one gets nervous. I think that same thing can be said about taking tests.

I don’t get nervous when I take tests. Because I always prepare for an examination. And I prepare thoroughly tested. Also I'm a type of strong for tests. Why? Because I am Korean. ? So I never get nervous when I take a test. Do you want to know why? I will answer next question. And what I have been the most delightful test ever taken? Of course I think Korea SAT. Korea SAT is one of the important thing for Korean. Korean think Korea SAT is a course of study. Also Korean think Korea SAT is an obligation as a matter of Korean. So Korea high school students have a miserable life. Anytime they have to study, Worst of all they must study in weekend. On top of that we go to school in Christmas. When I was really sick, that doesn’t mean I don’t have to go. And I think why many Korea students a motive for suicide. Also that reason is why I come here in America. And what do I do normally before a test? I normally memorize before a test. Moreover what was worse I have a bad memory, so I had to cram that. So I suffer hell. And Korea students usually study in school. So I studied with my friends for a test. In addition Korea SAT is a competitive examination. So I did the wait-and-see policy in choice of university of an applicant. Therefore I don’t know to get nervous when I take a test.

Hi, I am Olga Tymoshenko. I am nervous when I take tests, because I am scared if I get a bad grade. If I get a good grade I will be very happy. When I went to school in 7th grade, I took a test in geometry. There was a card, on each card there was 4 questions,the cards were from 1 to 30. No one ever got the first card, so no one studied. When i went to the class, the teacher gave me the number 1 card test. I was scared because I didn't study for it. When I got through the test, I did GREAT! That was the most delightful test i've ever taken. I usually repeat everything thats supposed to be on a test, I also study very hard for it. When I came to California, I didn't know any english at all. I was so scared that I would never learn the language. Soon I went to school, and I got plenty of english language that I FINALLY learned how to speak it, write it, and read it. After a little while I went to college and I did very good. I study for a test with my friend, Yelena, my daughter, Tatyana, and my grand-daughter Amy. They helped me alot. I learned more about english from my grand kids. They helped me do better in college. So, if you have any problems, just go to a close friend, neighbor, daughter/son, wife/husband..anyone you can think of, theyll help you alot, TRUST ME!!!!!! Don't worry about any up-coming tests or quizzes, just study hard, it's better to study with a friend though, and BELIEVE in yourself, and you'll do GREAT!

Most students get nervous on the test. That is very dangerous because they feel bad, sick or embarrassed, when they take the test. If the students get nervous on the test, they do not do everything so well and get a bad grade for that test. Sometime I get nervous when I took the test. That is bad thing for me because I did not do so well and complete my test so proper. I did not know how to do it better, so my point is low and do not pass this test. The nervous make me felt hot all my body, my head so heavy and my heart beating quickly. By the time, I thinking too much and worry about my point, so I tried to work more because I want to pass this test, but I did not do anything more so better. My first test was delightful at Sierra College. I really felt afraid when I took the test because this test is important for me. If I do not pass on the test, I must go back in Vietnam. On that time, I did not know how to do the test correctly. I think that I get nervous on this time, so I breathe o long, exercise my hands and close my eyes to lessen nervous. I did not do my test in 2 or3 minute, then keep to do this test again, so that is better before I do this because my test is very good. That is my experience on the test. I usually study with my friends when we take the test because we want to improve knowledge or do homework together. We can ask and answer something we do not understand together to get a good great on the test.

Do you get nervous when you take test? what hasbeen the most delightful test you have ever taken? What do you normally do before taking a test ? Do you study alone or with a partner for a test? I get nervous when I take test. The main thing languaqe is the ability to understand and ability to write and construct sentences and e.t.c, not get nervous or nearby excellent or abandoned it, that the test did not conseguently, something even pray. For me the main thing is diligent preparation and almost everi day.One of the main points this focus on the details and know the words.I have bad memory is a little bit forget a few words(a words that means) maybe this a with age,all the same for 50 years.The English language I very want to learn and try,but does not obtained yet.For those who are young and who knows and who taught.The English in school for them is not sodifficult to write the test. I teach English in U.S. only 4 th semester. I writing test with plessure, when I remember all the words and grammar then I try to test their knowledqe, spell, how and where to put the right words, sometimes not enough time to write a good test, because time is limited in class. The test or write an essay in the house of course better- used books, handbooks, online in a calm,guiet environment and even more time to think things through and make sentences. I study it self before the test, sometimes it is not clear I ask my son. I try learn the unit with first to the last page on which will write test . I study words and especially the rules sometimes in my head all the way but it's all surmountable the main in during the test to take yourself in hand and forget all the problemms and not distract think only of the test.

I do not always get nervous when I take a test. That depends if I have well studied before or not. If I don’t know by heart my lesson, I get nervous. For the oral presentation, I always get nervous, I falter and I have difficulty in saying my text. I don’t like speaking in front of all the class. I play accordion and when I have a test where I have to play in front of a public, I get nervous.

When I was young and went to school, I was nervous before a test, but then I noticed that it affects me even more, I was so nervous that I couldn’t answer the questions right. In my country all of the tests where given orally, and it wasn’t easy. We had a test once a month, and at the end of the year was the most important of all, it gave us the grade for the whole school year. It is not easy and I was very nervous.

Yes. I get nervous right before taking a test, and I think being nervous is good because it will help me to get ready more till I am fully prepared and confident enough to take my test. Most of the time when I get nervous, I know that there is something very important, so I give my undivided attention for the subject that I am being prepared for.

I usually get nervous when I don’t study before a test or a quiz. My heart is beating, and my hands are shaking so bad. Last time I experienced on myself when I took some tests in school, when teacher gave out the test I got so nervous because I wasn’t really ready, and I got the bad results. The most delightful and most important test was the CAHSE TEST. It is the (California High School Exam). I studied very hard before the test. If I wouldn’t have passed that test, I wouldn’t be graduated. I knew that I would do well on the test. When I got the test results I was really happy because I passed it. I always try to have good results on the test because I know that it will affect my grade, and I try to be always ready, and not to worry, because I know if I will be nervous I’ll get bad results.

Sometimes I get nervous, when I taking a test. The tests are very important for me. About one years ago, I took a test with very interesting subject. The title was about my favorite day. I wrote about my family. I like my family and I was really happy when I wrote about they. Usually I am preparing for the tests very well. Usually I use dictionary, the books, my notes, and internet, when I study for a test, I want to get a good grade. I study alone for a test because no one classmate doesn't live close for me. I want to study with a partner for a test. Usually, I get nervous because I don't understand some word or if I find it word in the dictionary, I can't write correct the sentence. Sometimes, I get nervous because I can't quickly write a test and quiz. Sometimes I don't no about what I should write, I am thinking and thinking long time. Then, usually I am writing plan. It is very hard for me. After that, I write a test or quiz. I think many people get nervous, when they take a test because it is very important for us. We can know our knowing. If I got bad grate, I need study more. Maybe some people, who are studying very well, they do not get nervous. I will try do not get nervous. I will study more. I like study, and I like take a test.

Ever since i was a child, i was always nervous when taking tests. If i did a bad job, my parents would hit me and i would be grounded from a lot of things. As i grew up, i started to become more responsible for my own school work so i can become a better student and study hard for my tests. If i know the content very well, i would not be nervous. But if i do not know anything about the test i would feel like im a failure. Recently, the most delightful test i've taken was last semester in my reading class. I didn't study that much but i was confident in myself. When i study, i usually study by myself. Sometimes my cousin comes over and helps me with something i don't understand but other wise i study harder when i am by myself. Usually i check the dictionary or my text books for references if i don't understand something. I try not to be nervous when taking tests because it makes it harder on myself.

It is always heard for me to understand the feeling before the test. It’s something similar with being afraid to forget something, or sadness in your soul. It’s so interesting after many years of several tests, I still get nervous when I take a test. Even if I study hard and I am well prepared for the test, there is something before that makes me to panic.

Some people get nervous and worried when they take tests, even if they studied. And I am one of them. I think it is impossible that people do not get nervous when they take tests, because it is quite natural. People always get nervous before or in time important moments in their lives.There are many ways to cope with this problem. For example I would like to tell you what I do that don't get nervous and worried when I take tests. First of all, I well prepare for the test. Knowledge of the material gives me more confidence that I can do it and get a high grade. I also study alone for the test because it helps me not to be distracted and better to understand a material. Besides would be good to get some sleep or rest before the tests. It helps to concentrate. Also it is very important for me that I don't talk to other students before tests because excexcitement is contagious. One more thing helps me don't get nervous is that I never lose faith in myself, even if I failed the previous test.

I get nervous when i take tests. The purpose of taking tests is to exam me on what i have learned and the knowlegde i have gained during the course. Preparing for the tests are the most critical parts to succeed. Setting up a time table to study, memorizing important highlights of the topics are the main points to succeed for the tests.

Do I get nervous before the test? No. Usually, I am never nervous before the test. When I was in middle school I participated in many competitions. Each year there are competitions for each of the school subjects. Assignments in these competitions are usually held in the form of test. One student from each class participated in the competition, then one student from the school compete with students from other schools. The goal is determine the best student in this subject. The importance of this competition can be compared with exam. The first times I was very nervous. Then I ceased to be nervous, not only in these competitions but also in all tests and examinations. This is a good opportunity to get rid of stresses that are associated with tests.

Before taking a test, I feel that I have either the choice to pass it or fail it. Understanding this, I get nervous and trying to remember everything I studied the night before. Also throughout the semester I try to take good notes and remember the important details of the lesson that the instructor presents, by doing this I have more confidence in myself and knowing that I will do good on a test.

I get pretty nervous when I take tests. I do not know why I get nervous, but I sure do two things to calm down myself. One thing is to drink green tea before taking a test. I tried several drink products such as water, coffee, to settle down myself. Then I recognize that green tea is the perfect product for me. It makes me stable and clear as usual. This can be figured it out when I see the result of my score that I get. Other thing is to sleep well before the actual date of a test. Some people do not sleep, and start preparing for the test until it starts. This is not good at all. In some way, this can lead to a fine score for the test, but it is just a temporary expedient. Their memory will work at that time. However, this is for short term memory. What I do is start working on the test before five or six days. After that you review work, and sleep well. Sleep makes our brain to rest. Then, we will have full of confidence because we prepare ourselves as well. Also, your memory works fine. You will have long term memory. In short, sleep well, and drink green before the test. This will make you well prepare and calm down.

I usually study before I take a test, but I get nervous anyway. I think all student have different feelings when we talk about a test. Some feel nervous like me, some feel excited like my best friend. She likes to take tests about any subject. Some feel the need to take tests. I just think we can't control the bad feeling when we are going to take a test or when the teacher talks about it, but we have to do it, so we have to relax and study hard and everything will be fine.I prefer to study with a partner because we can notice different points about the subject. But I concentrate more alone. I'm a shy person and being alone is how I feel more comfortable. I think the easiest test I have ever taken in my life is with the subject of my interest. I think is more easy to learn when you enjoy the class. And the hardest test is any with a boring subject. I remember one of my teachers said, "Tomorrow we are going to have a test, so be on time and prepare for it" I was ready for it, but at night, I could't sleep, I was afraid, so I didn't wake up on time. I know you are thinking about this."It's awful". Anyway let me tell you something; it doesn't matter how hard you study for a test. If you don't have a good rest before, you probably are going to forget everithing that you learned. So take a good rest, study hard, and good luck. This is the only thing you need to have a good grade.

Do I get nervous when taking tests? Well it depends. When I came to America and I didn't know English, so it was so difficult for me. I would also get nervous when a teacher would aware us for a test. After taking a couple of semesters, it is not difficult for me anymore. I also don't get stressed out when taking a test now. The most delightful test I have ever taken was driving test. This was very odd for me because the streets and the sings were different, but I took that test successfully. When I got my results, I was really happy. I usually relax before tests. I also study with my wife. Together we help each other. I prefer not to study alone because it is really boring and not interesting. I really like studying but I get nervous when someone finishes a test before me. Anxiety usually increases your ability to do well on tests. Before taking a test, I get a good night of sleep, relax eat a nice breakfast, and focus on the test. After taking ESL classes, I might go to a university for an occupation. I think that the tests will be much harder but that is not going to stop me because I'm going to study hard. I took ESL classes and I have very kind and intelligent teachers. I hope that I will finish this semester with good grades. In conclusion tests show what you know and it is really important to do well on them.

I never get nervous when I take tests with many reasons. Because with me test likes a challenge and I have to pass. I don’t feel nervous or worry about it. I think test is normal in studying. I like to test because it’s a target it will motivate me to study hard. Test is a check how much knowledge in my studying. My delightful test is English exam, because I’m studying at Sierra College. I like to take tests. It’s a motivation to study. It helps me improving English. Before any test I try to study hard and focus much time on many lessons I studied. I usually study with my cousin. We are going school together. They are my best partner. In short, test is normal with me, I never get nervous and I can’t study without test

I get nervous when I take tests, because I want to have good grades and be good student. I think it comes from the time, when I was child. My mother controlled my grade, and I didn’t want to make her sad. For that I prepared and memorized well before tests. Also, in my country people like to study, and it counts there as a high level. Now I am an adult, but sometimes still get nervous. It happened with me when I take test on English, because I don’t know English well. The most delightful test for me it’s English writing. I cant think on English quickly. First, I explain on Russian to myself, after I translate on English. It takes a long time, I have to use a dictionary, and I worry about interesting ideas, details, correct words on different bargain language, therefore I’d like what I wrote. Sometimes I get nervous when I didn’t study well before a test, and I don’t know what will happen, and how it influence my grade. Before the test, I usually study a lot so I will be ready for the upcoming test. Usually I study alone, I don’t like to study with someone else, because I have to concentrate on my thoughts. It doesn’t matter how hard the test is in America, in Ukraine it’s always much harder.

I always get nervous before any test, and all my friends are nervous before take a test too, but some nervous before a test can actually be helpful. Just as stress at a job can push me to work harder, test nervous can motivate me to put forth my best effort. I need to be prepared before I am taking a test. It is important to me study before to take a test. Some times, I have a hard time getting started studying for a test. It is not easy concentrated when do you have a family and younger one to take care. Some times when I am studying for a test, I find many things that distract me, but I can do it and I try my best. I try to maintain a positive attitude. Think about doing well, not failing. Think of the test as an opportunity to show how much I have learned. Later the day before, I was check my backpack and I take some extra pencils, pens, paper, and make sure my books are in my backpack.

Yes, I do. Especially in the final exams. Most of the time during a test the mind is clouded and do not know where to start first. It is as if the body to be cold and your mind goes blank. That's why I get nervous in each test.
