Exams
Exams are a necessary part of medicine. They can take over your life and fill every waking minute if you let them. Studying for exams means staying organised, staying healthy and staying motivated. Ensuring that you continue your self-care and nurturing your relationships means that these need to be factored into your plans – not as an added extra, but as an important part of each day.
What you can do
- 1. A long-term study plan with accountability to another person or something enjoyable is a must
- 2. Remember that nutritious food, laughter with friends and at least 7 hours sleep are not options – they are essential brain food
- 3. The motivation fair doesn’t exist – motivation is a decision, not a feeling
