I test on Monday or Tuesday morning (I have a weekday job so I want to be fresh. YMMV.) I like to clear my afternoon calendar the day of the test.
By Friday of the week before the test I am as ready as I am going to be, so apart from light review no studying -- above all no all-nighters. I know where I am going, where to park, the money aspects of the exam are squared away. I take the weekend 'off'.
Light-to zero alcohol, moderate to lite caffeine, if you use either. I use ginkgo biloba daily but I don't know that it makes a difference in my test performance.
Proteinacious, plenty of vegetables meals on the weekend. Moderate physical activity is good. Above all have experiences that make you feel competent and like a winner.
Have a light but adequate breakfast the morning of the test, moderate caffeine (for me) -- don't short yourself or get yourself wired, plenty of water especially if you use coffee, it's a diuretic; carry some granola bars with honey or cane sugar, if any sweetener, along with you for sustenance just before the test. (Your brain likes glucose -- not HFCS -- but too much is not good.) Ensure you wont need a bathroom break during. Treat yourself to lunch after.
