<p>On practice tests, I always received a 2010 before the June test, but I took the June exam and received a 1930. I can't fall asleep the night before the test. Also, I find myself shaking during the beginning of the test, and not being able to focus on reading passages. But as time went on, I was able to focus. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? This has always been the situation for me.</p>
<p>You really want to get a good night’s sleep before taking the SAT. You can try waking up really early every saturday morning and mow through a couple practice sections to help prepare your mind and body for the real test.
I usually exercise during the day so that when night hits, I can sleep fairly easily. Also don’t take any naps during the day, that’ll only make it more difficult to sleep when you actually have to.</p>
<p>Chew gum and suck on hard candy. That helped me relax during my test.</p>
