NOTE:What you're going to see are just POINTERS WHAT TO DO BEFORE AND AFTER the board exam. So brace yourselves and get ready for the next big step...

Before exam:

1. PRAY.  ALWAYS. No need to explain this further. Pray to the Lord that he may give you the strength and courage to go on and survive with this battle. Ask for guidance to comprehend what you've learned. I had my St. Jude Novena posted on my wall and I always pray with it before studying.
2. Choose the best review center - know what they can cater and their reputation. Why going to review centers? It's because self-review is not enough.The best thing about going to review centers are the lecturers.  The lecturers will be a big help in your review as they will teach you the important lessons to be studied and those possible questions that would come out. Also, they will serve as your motivators as they will share their experiences when they took the board.
3. Attend review classes and its exams. Don't skip classes, you might be missing a very important topic.
4. Devote yourself to study everyday..
5. don't procrastinate..always tell yourself DO IT NOW before it's too late!
6. a day before exam.... 

• get your uniform ready and make sure you're still comfortable with it
• skim read what you haven't studied, just a quick glance of the LEAST important topic, Some may come out from it so better to have stock knowledge in case. 
• prepare what you must bring: the right pencil AND ITS EXTRA, eraser, ballpen, sharpener and most especially the NOTICE OF ADMISSION (NOA) please
