When us teenagers have to do a big test, and we don't know half of the material we're supposed to, we freak out, and we're like, "I'm gonna die!". The truth is, you won't die. You might fail (although I seriously doubt that will happen), but you won't die because you have a big test coming up. I had my EOC (end of course) exam today, and before, my teacher acted like it was going to be really hard and we had to study, like, four hours a night. But I didn't though. I just did ten minutes of last minute studying the night before, and none of the material I studied was on the test. The test was surprisingly easy-ish.
Okay, getting a little off topic here. My point is, don't worry about tests or anything like that, because you'll only get more stressed about it. That will cause you to panic, which will lead to not being able to concentrate on the test, and more. It's just a cause and effect chain that goes on forever and ever. As long as you try your very hardest, nothing else matters.
So now I'm going to talk about what middle school students take as a death sentence. It's a short list, but it's true.
1) More than 25 problems of math, algebra, or geometry homework.
2) Two hours of the class they hate most.
3) Lots and lots and lots of detention
This is kind of a joke when I say they take it as a death sentence, but maybe some people, if they are in one of these three situations, maybe they do feel like they're going to die. I dread it very much when I have two hours of algebra on Tuesday's, and sometimes I do feel like I'm going to wither away with boredom. But don't worry about tests or anything, don't sweat it. It will all be fine as long as you try your hardest. ;)
