Exams frighten almost everyone.

Fear of failure (and even of success) can make even the most able students struggle with coursework, revision and exams. Most study guides overlook these powerful underlying emotions.

Unique in allaying the anxieties that cause people to procrastinate, go blank, swot pointlessly or underperform, this book can change your attitude and help you break free:

Understand your fears
Stop panicking and start enjoying your work
Develop a balanced mental approach to your exams

In addition, it offers a wealth of grade-boosting tips:

Devise a revision strategy that works
Write powerful essays
Learn how to speed-read
Create effective notes and mind-maps
Remember what you learn

Written simply and humorously, with summaries enabling busy students to read quickly, this is one of the most comprehensive and user-friendly study guides available.

The second edition contains additional material for mature students and a brand new chapter offering real-life student testimonials.
