Yes Aisha,
You can also try that . As these are the last few days of your long journey , ask your husband to take the charge for a few days. Try to figure out why your son is waking up multiple times. If it is because of stuffy nose, try putting a little bit of nasal spray before he sleeps. Any OTC decongestant syrup also helps.
Taking a good night sleep is very important in these last days.
Be selfish for a few day , althoug it is NOT selfishness. You are working hard not only for yourself but for the entire family.
May Allah be with you. All the best.

oh yes, i like to sleep alone with nobody bugging me with his elbows or snoring!!! it is worst sleeping with a child that kicks you and slaps you the whole night long. aisha. relax. take a break. watch a movie. go out for dinner. go for a hairdo. just forget about your books for a few hours. you are getting stressed out. this is the time for you to have all your wits around you. you cannot affford to break down now. be 'selfish' adn do stuff just for yourself. it will pay off soon. just imagine what it will be like to finish step 1. ahhhhhhh

Aisha ,I was really stressed out as well for past weeks .But i took a day off .I think the exam weighs on the mind so heavily ,it is not possible to relax even when you are not studying .Just pray to God .I find comfort in prayers and this forum as well.
You will do well ,you'll see .It's just a matter of time now.
I sleep with my daughter .Some nights are better than others ,sometimes i really get up with such a bad headache .
But ,it's going to be all over.We can do this .Nothing can keep us down .Good luck .You will do well .

My advice girl do what i did...kick them both out. i made their bed that last wek every night in the living room..they Had fun. My son woke up at night and decide to bang his head on the carpet and his nose was all bloody..and my husband comes to wake me up to tell me to be a doctor a night before my test I felt like banging my head somewhere....so u see..it's a conspiracy..get out of it now.Good luck,Darling just wanted u to smile....have fun reading in this last bit of revision 'coz u have no other choice today.If u try that at least u'll be calm and eventually it's the stuff that's already in ur brain that needs purging........the day before the exam just try doing qs. from topics that scare u or u are weak intill half day then take deep breath the rest of the day and go u sleep early and alone...no crib or anything.Here's something for u.
TO ACHIEVE WE MUST FIRST BELIEVE. so simple that's all u need to do now.GL once again.

Hey aisha,
1.Tomorrow just go throgh some notes u made and weird qs....If u read Fa maybe that too but wake up early and finish early.Nothing aftr 3pm please.Go out watch a movie or something try consciosly not to think abt. the next day but if u do think abt what u'll do after...
2.Don't think so just pray urself to sleep.
3.eat some cereal and milk.Carry some toast and tea or coffee.
4. Half an-hour earlier....if ur test is early morning if not then maybe 40 mts...
Take ur time before u go in take deep breaths before starting a block.
5.. go to the restroom before entering.Do the first 2 blocks...take a 5 mts. break go to the restroom drink water/tea come back do another 2 blocks..take a break eat ur lunch.drink tea use the restroom go back in do the next to blocks..take a break if u need then finish the test.
6. Carry a light jacket the ac can be killing..also keepTylenol in case of headache.
7.i don't think us ud go to ur can but u can.
*. if u blank out go to the next q after marking the one u blanked out on..come back to it after u finish the block.Keep an eye on the clock....after every 5 qs.
9.If u are calm enuff to go through ur books only then open them..they won't harm or hurt.
10.Most imply. God is with u if anything happens think of him.Wish u all the best u are going to do great...U can reply after u are done with ur test.

Dear aisha
I just did the oasis trick and I passed.you willl pass too.Just stay calm.Try to sleep early the day before the exam.I didn't took sleep aid and I didn't sleep well.I slept no more than 2 hours.But I was not sleepy in the exam b/c of te adrenalin.if you didn't try the sleep aid before,like 2-3 days before the last day do not take them.But if you have good experiance with sleep aid I guss it will not be bad to take.
Do not worry.Try to see formulas and things which your instinct tell you to read.
I wish you a good luck!!
