McConnell said, “but if they’re
so panicky and they don’t take
that one minute out, then they
end up blowing the whole test.”
She also said it is important to
know how much time to allow on
each question.
McConnell’s advice for study
ing is to avoid being over
whelmed during finals week by
making a list of what has to be
done and putting the most im
portant things at the top. Also,
students should get plenty of
sleep and exercise to relieve ten
sion.
But many students don’t fol
low this advice.

Health Center, said many stu
dents turn to caffeine or other
stimulants to stay awake during
finals week.
McConnell said these pro
ducts tend to make students
even more anxious.
Lagan said students abusing

of nervousness, shaking, rapid
pulse, dilated pupils and loss of

irritable. They have trouble
