Anxious While Testing?!
Thinking is not like a light switch. Performance is not simply about skills and knowledge. In this talk with Ned Johnson, test prep geek at PrepMatters and co-author of Conquering the SAT, The Self-Driven Child, and What Do You Say?, learn the neuroscience and psychology that explains why bright, academic students often stumble under the pressure of school and standardized tests. Most importantly, Ned will share how parents can help and what students can do before and during those high-stress moments.
