Just had my second practical of PT school and I feel horrible. I practice and know everything in and out but when I get to the test, my mind goes blank. I start to forget the name of the skill and what it looks like, and I think it is performance anxiety. I practiced a lot beforehand and do not know how to NOT let my nerves sabotage my performance. I also make silly mistakes... I could really use some advice. I also know for sure I failed 2 out of my 5 skills due to blanking out and forgeting how to set it up. I don't understand why this happens! I need help.. If I fail, I get to retake it but still....
Also, I studder, shake a lot, and just overall feel like I have tunnel vision... I want to do well.. I want to be a PT.
I had to do 5 skills in 15 minutes... And I barely finished on time... I think if I had more time I could have caught my mistakes. I need better study strategies I think.
