I end up doing really badly on tests and it's pulling my grades down. I freak out when i encounter a question that i don't know how to answer. Also, i don't have time to recheck my answers for careless mistakes. I've never had this problem before. Maybe because it's grade 12 and I'm especially scared of getting bad grades. help me!
 
First of all BREATHE =)

second, really really work on your study habits. It's tough, but you're not going to do better if you havent studdied lots. Sometimes studying with a friend or somone who you can discuss the material with helps tons on retention. You could also find someone to tutor you

Make sure to get a full night's sleep and a very good breakfast. We're talking protien and carbs. No sugary cereal. Good food in the morning really really helps.

If you get stuck on a question, dont freeze on that question, go onto the next question and come back to the one that gave you trouble last.

Some people find sucking on a hard candy like a Jolly Rancher helps them concentrate.

and like I said before BREATHE. You'll do fine. No need to panic.
