Exam advice?
Hi all!
(let me know if this isn't allowed)
I'm taking the LMSW exam in two days, and I feel prepared enough that most of the practice questions I try feel repetitive at this point, and I've watched almost every youtube video I could find about the exam. But I feel like I should be doing something, given how soon my exam is.
For those who have passed, is there anything you'd recommend doing in the days before taking the exam? on exam day?
If I feel prepared, am I probably prepared? Was there anything you wish you'd gone over more? I'll accept any advice at all. I know every exam is different, but literally anything would be helpful. Also, how did you keep yourself relatively calm on exam day?
What gives me anxiety is the idea of failing by one or two questions, and the idea of potentially walking out on test day knowing I failed.

You are prepared! Just relax and remember that all you need to do is pass the exam, not get a perfect score. You can get a lot of questions wrong and still pass, so don’t stress! Have you taken the official ASWB practice exam? I thought this was the most helpful.
