1. Look over what you have accomplished so far from time to time, and compare it with your degree plan. It's a big kick in the pants for me. Shows progress.
2. DEADLINES: Think out the time frame for your test, and do it.
3. Think of the day you will where that cap and gown.
These are my personal anti-burnout measures.
That's the same thing I do!
I can really relate to the burnout feeling... (I actually cried the other day!) I am taking 19 credits this spring and testing out of 2-3 exams per month for the last 5 months! Sometimes just looking at my degree plan and remembering that I am on a schedule is the best motivator!
When I consider that I was able to accumulate 60 credits in 5 months, I totally get why I'm stressed out. It'll be all worth it when I get the final transcript that states "Bachelors degree awarded".
Good luck with the Biology exam, I know that you can do it! All things are possible with hard work, dedication and a little faith.
Passed So Far
