Who needs a pep talk?
Come at me. I'll give ya one!
You can do it. And no, not like the dork on SNL. You can do it!
Start reading your books, taking the practice tests, reading specific exam feedback. Stop worrying about failure, about what everyone else is doing. Shut off your computer, no more facebook, IM, degreegorum, hotmail etc. Lock yourself in a room for a few hours and learn some material. Then prove yourself on a test and enjoy the feeling of success.
It is intoxicating and very rewarding to know that you have learned enough on your own to satisfy the College Board requirements for a course.
Enjoy it!

You want some crackers with that cheese. hilarious
Just messing with you. It is true that I had to do all of the above to get through some of my exams. Especially shutting off my computer, except of course when I was doing the flashcards. I've never been on "degreegorum" before though.

Yeah its cheesy!
Degreegorum, gotta love it.
Burbuja, get the syllabus for your first class and start reading the textbook. If you read the entire text before day one of the class, you will have a massive head start and it will reduce your anxiety. I do this now and wish I had done it back when I was in school as a kid.
