hey girly!

any advice helps <3
hi!! girl im on the same path as you <3 also i am so sorry this is so late š. so first, i would establish where exactly im going wrong- like is it the work & formulas and stuff that you dont understand? or is it that you are pretty decent at it and can do it well but just in exams the nerves really seem to get to you?

if its the actual questions and formulas, then literally do as many practice questions as you can to prepare! also try doing them in exam conditions to get you used to it. math is just a series of steps and rules and once you understand that and how you get from a to b, its much easier to do more questions. if you're still confused, DONT BE AFRAID TO ASK YOUR TEACHER! thats what you're paying them to do- ask them to explain how you do a question again. other resources you can use include khan academy and watching youtube videos!
stress is a good thing for tests and stuff but too much can be disastrous! if you are genuinely quite good at math but somehow the exam stress gets to you, you can try grounding methods to get you to focus on the question in front of you, calm you down and not worry about anything else.
some grounding methods include: 5-4-3-2-1 (5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch/ feel, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste OR one thing you feel right now), box breathing.
