- From now until the last week, we\u2019ll create a study and review schedule, which we\u2019ll follow closely. We should set aside at least three consecutive hours per subject, and it\u2019s best to study one or at most two subjects each day. However, we shouldn\u2019t try to study all the subjects on the same day. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
- \n
- We follow the schedule for the Panhellenic exams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In other words, we go to bed early and wake up at the same time we would on exam days. That way, our bodies will get used to this schedule and will function better when the time comes to take the exams. <\/p>\n
\n
- \n
- We eat a healthy diet, drink juices, and engage in moderate exercise so that we are in good physical\u2014and therefore mental\u2014condition to combat the inevitable anxiety that everyone experiences when taking exams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
- \n
- We\u2019re thinking positively. Our lives don\u2019t begin\u2014and they certainly don\u2019t end\u2014with the national college entrance exams, no matter what our results may be. The goal is to achieve the best possible result; even if we don\u2019t get into ourfirst-choice<\/sup> school, getting into oursecond<\/sup> orthird<\/sup> choice is still a success. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Life isn’t black and white; we must always remember that. There are situations that fall somewhere in between, and it’s very important to make the best of them as best we can. <\/p>\n
After all, during the battle, we think only of victory.<\/p>\n
\n
- \n
- We shouldn\u2019t get caught up in rumors about SOS issues that someone predicted, that are long overdue, that our classmate saw in a dream\u2026 and so on. We get worked up for no reason, and they almost never turn out to be true. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
- \n
- On the night before the exam, we avoid overeating and NEVER stay up late. On the day of the exam, make sure you\u2019re ready early so you don\u2019t get stressed out if there\u2019s a delay on your way to the test center. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
DURING THE EXAM<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
We have everything we need with us:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Identity card or passport<\/li>\n
- Examinee Form (Card)<\/li>\n
- 3 pens (blue or black), a pencil, an eraser, and a pencil sharpener<\/li>\n
- Geometric instruments (when needed)<\/li>\n
- A small bottle or thermos filled with water or juice<\/li>\n
- Timeline for managing the estimated time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
- \n
- We read thefirst<\/sup> question without rushing or feeling stressed. There\u2019s no point in rushing; we don\u2019t gain anything by reading it 5\u201310 seconds faster, and we\u2019re more likely to make mistakes. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
We solve it (never in the scratchpad and then copy it over later\u2014that\u2019s a pointless waste of time and energy) calmly, and if necessary, we use the scratchpad for a calculation or a thought that we\u2019re not sure will pan out.<\/p>\n
We repeat the same process step by step for the remaining topics.<\/p>\n
\n
- \n
- We don\u2019t get discouraged if a topic is difficult for us or if we don\u2019t know it. Difficult topics are difficult for everyone. We\u2019ll try to write down what we know so we can earn as many points as possible. Even if we\u2019re not sure, we have to aim for as many points as we can get. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
- \n
- We shouldn’t stray from the initial timeline we’ve set for each topic. We write as much as we can and then move on to the next topic. Once we\u2019ve finished writing and return to that topic, we may notice things we didn\u2019t see the first time around. If we finish early, we don\u2019t stop there; instead, we reread the questions and the answers we provided to make sure we\u2019re confident in what we\u2019ve written. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
- \n
- We don\u2019t rush, we don\u2019t get too excited, and we don\u2019t get discouraged. All of these can lead us to make mistakes. When the exam is over, we calm down and try to put that subject out of our minds. What\u2019s done is done. Going back over what we wrote won\u2019t change anything. Let\u2019s not forget that we\u2019re being compared to the other test-takers. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Our focus now is on the next lesson.<\/p>\n
\n
AFTER THE EXAMS<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
- \n
- We fill out our computerized application form with the guidance and support of a specialized career counselor provided by the DIAKROTIMA tutoring centers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/p>\n
The DIAKROTIMA Tutoring Group has been active in the field of education for 25 years.<\/span><\/p>\n
Many thousands of our students have taken exams, with some achieving excellent results and others less so.<\/span><\/p>\n
Some of them are now teachers or directors at our tutoring centers, some bring their children to us, and we certainly feel that same bond with all of them\u2014the kind that teachers feel when they help their students make their dreams come true.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
Let’s always remember that:<\/p>\n
Exams are an important milestone, but they are not the end of the journey. Opportunities are available to everyone, and there are countless opportunities throughout your life. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
We must have faith, strength, and the determination to pursue them.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n
We wish all students faith, strength, and success on their exams!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
