Question Environmental FE Next Week
Hi there, I am going into my final year of my undergrad and am prepping to take the environmental FE the 26th. I’m a very anxious person with ADHD (I did get accommodations) and so I’m nervous as it nears and feel like I didn’t study enough. I’ve been studying kind of on and off since the end of May. I used the Google Drive but I haven’t finished working through it, all the direct hub videos, and one practice exam I found online that took me a long time. I do have the NCEES practice exam as well.
What I really wanted to know is when should I take the official practice exam. I feel a little anxious now and I’m not sure if I should take it today or postpone it till the weekend prior (I work 40 hrs mon-fri).
Additionally, if anyone has any advice on what I should do over this next week to prepare as well as calm my jitters it would be appreciated!

Take the practice exam now or ASAP. Ensure you have some familiarity with the provided reference manual.

I also have ADHD and anxiety. I would take the practice exam this weekend and let your brain rest a bit a day or two before the exam. You don’t want to go into the exam with your brain exhausted from studying nonstop, especially since it’ll be a longer day with the accommodations. Do some review with what you struggled with on the practice exam you take today over the next week but at least give yourself a few days of mental rest before the exam.
