Test anxiety comes with a wide array of symptoms including: butterflies or knots in the stomach, sweaty palms, difficulty concentrating, loss of appetite or emotional overeating, sleeping problems and difficulty breathing.
The test anxiety workshop, presented by CSU Health Network, will help students create personalized plans to deal with test day anxiety, Freemole said.
Here are some of Freemole’s tips on how to deal with daily stress.
