A member asked:

What are the effects of nervosity before an exam-help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nervous.: If you're nervous before a test, or in the days before a test, it may affect your ability to study and retain the need information. That being said, anxiety at the time of a test is not really considered a bad thing as it may improve focus and motivation.
