March Madness, St. Patrick’s Day, National Red Cross Month, and Dr. Suess’ Birthday; all great things that happen in March! Plus we reach the middle of the Spring Semester. Don’t panic! Sure, there are mid-terms to be aced, but I’ve put together some great tips!
Oh the Mid-terms You’ll Ace (inspired by Dr. Suess’ “Oh the Places You’ll Go”)
Oh! The Places You’ll Go!
Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to take Midterms!
You’re off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have supplies in your pack.
You can ace any ol’ test you attack.
You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU’ll be the one who’ll decide to ace bio.
You’ll look up and down questions. Look’em over with care. About some you will say, “I wish this exam weren’t all essay.” With your head full of brains and your flashcards on hand, you’re too smart to jot down an answer that’s bland.
And you may not find any you’ll answer with ease. In that case, of course, you’ll take a deep breath and consider the keys. It’s easier then, when you calm your unease.
Out there things can happen and frequently do to people as brainy and footsy as you.
And when things start to happen, don’t worry. Don’t stew. Just go right along. You’ll start happening too.
Oh! The Places You’ll Go!
And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and ¾ percent guaranteed.)
Kid, you’ll move mountains!
So…be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray or Mordecai Ale Van Allen O’Shea, you’re off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your midterms are waiting.
So…get on your way!
I’ve attached some helpful hints for dealing with test anxiety. Please be sure to contact me if you have any specific concerns about mid-terms, summer and fall registration, or would just like to talk!
