Exam Week Survival Plan

পরীক্ষার সপ্তাহের প্ল্যান

Exam week isn't about learning new material. It's about peaking — physically, mentally — on the right day. Most students do the opposite: peak panic three days before, exhausted on exam morning.

পরীক্ষার সপ্তাহে নতুন কিছু শেখার সময় নয় — শক্তি ধরে রাখার সময়।

Day 7-5: light revision only

দিন ৭-৫: হালকা রিভিশন

Read summary notes. Solve previous-year questions you've already solved. NEW material is forbidden — adding new content this close to exam day hurts memory consolidation of what you already know.

Day 4-3: full-length mock

দিন ৪-৩: মক টেস্ট

One full mock under exam conditions on day 4. Review on day 3. This is your last meaningful mock — it tells you what to focus on for the final 48 hours.

Day 2: weak-area pass

দিন ২: দুর্বল অংশ

Two hours each on your weakest two areas from the mock. Then stop. More than 4 hours of focused work this close to exam day actively hurts performance.

Day 1: nothing new + sleep

দিন ১: বিশ্রাম

Light formula-sheet review in the morning. Walk in the evening. Light dinner — no heavy food. Sleep by 10 PM. Do not touch new problems. The brain needs 7-8 hours sleep to perform at exam speed.

Exam morning

পরীক্ষার সকাল

Wake 90 min before leaving. Breakfast = protein + complex carbs (egg + bread, oats). No coffee if you don't normally drink it. Arrive 30 min early. Sit, breathe, do not open notes — re-reading 10 minutes before makes recall worse, not better.
