do’s and don’ts

Hey friends,

By now, I’m sure your inboxes are full of do’s and don’ts for today — and rightly so😃! But I just wanted to share a few things that personally helped me, hoping they’ll help you too.

You’re just one sleep away from the exam you’ve poured your heart into for months. Today isn’t about pushing harder — it’s about calming your mind and centering your focus.

Here’s a quick checklist to end your day right:

✅ Keep it light – Don’t overload yourself with revision. Trust your hard work so far.

❌ No new PDFs or last-minute notes – however tempting, they add more stress than value.

🚖 Sort your travel plans – Book a cab in advance or ask a friend/family member to accompany you. Avoid driving yourself if you can — keep your mind exam-focused.

📍 Visit the centre – Either go yourself or ask someone to check it out. The goal is simple: no surprises tomorrow.

🎒 Pack your bag tonight – Admit card, photo ID, 2 black pens, transparent water bottle, analog watch, and maybe a couple of chocolates for a sugar boost.

🍽️ Eat light for dinner – Something easy on digestion. I preferred South Indian food — light, tasty, and filling. But go with what keeps you comfortable.

Pro tip:

✨ Try to wind up everything by 6 PM. Yes, 6! After that, relax. Watch a feel-good movie, take a walk, talk to family, or just be with yourself. A clear and rested mind tomorrow can make all the difference.

And finally — get a good night’s sleep.

Your best asset in the exam hall isn’t your notes — it’s a calm, rested YOU.

You've got this. Sending strength and belief your way!

All the very best for tomorrow! Go own that OMR sheet tomorrow 🌷🌷
