To make life in this student hostel as comfortable and safe as possible for everyone, please rememberthese rules.Security You have a special card which operates the electronic lock on your room door and a key fthe main door of the hostel. These are your responsibility and should never be lent to anyone, includinyour fellow students. If you lose them you will be charged 20 for a replacement. Do not leave your room

unlocked even for short periods (for example, when making yourself a coffee).

Each has large fridge and a food cupboard. All food should be stored, clearly marked with the owner's name,

one of these two places. Bedrooms are too warm for food to be kept in, and the cleaners havinstructions to remove any food found in them. After using the kitchen, please be sure you do all youwashing-up immediately and leave it tidy.

HOW TO PASS ANY EXAMIf you're like most people, you are afraid of taking exams. There are a lot of reasons why peop

are afraid of exams. One of them is what your peers and employers are going to say if you don't pasThe real problem isn't taking the exam; it's preparing to pass the exam.

I've got a buddy who prepares himself for failure. He doesn't believe it, but it's true. How does hdo it? He'll tell himself over and over that he is not good at taking exams. By the time he starts the examhis brain has been conditioned that it's okay for him to fail because he's not good at taking exams. Thmoral? Tell yourself that you are good at passing exams.

First of all, study every single day at exactly the same time. When I prepare, every day I study the same time that coincides with the exam start time. One of the most effective tools you can use learn new material is flashcards. Get yourself five hundred or so three-by-five cards, and write a term oone side and the definition on the other.

Gather a maximum of five test-takers who can meet every week. Each of you will create and brin20 exam-like questions that deal with only two to three objectives to each meeting. Revise each of thquestions as a group, using any reference to prove or disprove answers.

The night before your exam can be a stressful, sleepless night. I recommend that you take a nicelong walk or jog. Exercise can reduce stress and help you sleep. As far as studying goes, I always stud

my usual amount. When it's exam time, arrive at the testing center early. When you're in the testinroom, roll your shoulders, breathe deeply- ease yourself and relax.

Hopefully, if you prepared properly, your score will be greater than just the passing score. If it iscelebrate! Reward yourself with something you wouldn't usually do. If you don't pass, don't worry; theis always next time. Try to remember about the exam and the questions that puzzled you the mosCount the exam as part of your studying routine. In fact, reschedule to pass the exam again so you'vgot another deadline to work toward.
