Guys, I panicked today ...
Jun. 4th, 2004 06:43 pm... so I read business books @ Starbucks, bought a towelling robe (£25) for clients, bought hair clips (£2) for myself, nearly had a nervous breakdown in John Lewis, and hared straight off to Ottakar's to buy some books I'd been eyeing for AGES.
I'm now the proud owner of two NLP books, which are great for positive autosuggestion, a fantastic little book with colour diagrams of all the A&P stuff, and a clear guide to First Aid.
And far calmer. And ... distinctly poorer.
Ok, I'll pass. And it doesn't make much sense for me to revise laws right before the exam.
So, from now on - no more revising.
Just tomorrow morning on the bus, and at lunch time.

FYI, the schedule:
Saturday, June 5:
- 9.30am-10.45am: practical massage. I'll be working on a friend of a friend I've never met before. Realistic simulation of client contact. She sounded very nice on the phone.
- 2pm-3.30pm: Business Studies. 50 multiple choice questions in 90 minutes.
Sunday, June 6:
- 11am-1pm: A&P (I would FAIL this if this weren't an easy multiple choice exam with 50 questions)
- 2pm-4pm: Massage Theory (guess ... 50 questions, multiple choice.)
My strategy for the multiple choice is:
* read everything
* read again, marking potential answers
* read again, transferring the answers I'm sure about
* read again, deciding on the remaining answers
* read again to make sure I've filled all the boxes
* submit and leave
