This reply is a bit delayed, but please know I definitely read all your replies!

Yes, I usually study at home. So music is definitely an option. That definitely makes sense in my case.

Perna, I really liked your idea and did use it. I'm a writer and I have a lot of characters I turn to when writing. I used one of my favorites (who also happens to be a psych nerd himself ) for my studying. And everything I wrote stuck with me a lot longer than things I'd read from the book. It was a pretty nifty trick. On the exam, when questions he'd 'answered' cropped up, I just thought back to what I'd wrote. Handing cards to strangers might be a bit much for me because of my social anxiety aha, but I can definitely throw them away as I walk past trash cans and have learned the information.

A small amount of caffeine usually relaxes my anxiety. Too much... increases it. I just have to remember my limits. I've heard good things about chaomile, so I think I'll give it a shot first. I've seen some of the relaxation drinks. Perhaps I will give one a try one day.

I always keep water near me. So, that won't be a problem at all. I used to be addicted to soda and part of how I broke my addiction was keeping water near me when I drank it. I found that the more hydrated I stayed, the less dependent I became on soda. I find that it works with coffee and tea, too. Thanks for that tip. I usually study alone, but it will probably help when my sister(s) is/are around.

Kqaleel, I'm in the same boat. I have only failed an exam in French... which I regret, because I want to pass all my classes. Regardless, I've not failed a single one in Psychology but I've stressed about every single one. I don't have much advice for you, being that I'm in the same boat. All I can say is take some of the advice here and do your est. You're obviously a smart student, so I'm sure you'll get through it. Best of luck.
