Overcoming Test Taking Anxiety

Season 2 - Episode 40

Today’s topic comes from a listener question. 

“With your expertise on the brain, I’m wondering if you have any wisdom about how I can advise someone who says they just aren’t a good test-taker? 

I’ve tried to read up on test anxiety, and I know the research says the best thing is to know the material and be prepared. However, some students say there is such a great amount of material to study, they cannot keep it in their brain. 

Do you have any advice as to a good approach for studying a large amount of material? And… how to approach that test (to reduce anxiety)?”

Lauren covers her tried and true method for learning and remembering a lot of material at once.
