To obtain anything these days—from a driver’s license to a doctor’s license, from citizenship papers to a college degree—you have to take a test. And standing in the way of passing the test—for many people, from all walks of life—is test stress.
In this easy-to-understand and eminently practical book, Dr. Ben Bernstein, a performance psychologist and educator, provides a model for every test taker for any test, to reduce stress and improve test performance.
The model draws on research-based evidence that the secret to test success is being calm, confident and focused while preparing for a test and when taking it.
The book offers
- Nine specific tools for staying calm, confident and focused.
- Checklists, inventories, graphs and charts. (These are also available online for all readers.)
- Special chapters for teachers and parents.
