CBT Teaching Experts: Dealing with stress
During this session, we will explore one of the most significant aspects that can help explain test outcomes.
We have all heard stories of a high-performing student who failed an exam and an average student who, for some reason, achieved a good grade. It is not only about what you know but also about how you manage the stress before and during an exam. Join us for a session on how to manage stress effectively before taking the computer-based test.
