Episode 59 — Execute a calm, confident exam-day playbook end-to-end
Success on your certification day is determined by the small logistical and mental preparations you make in the final twenty-four hours before your appointment. This episode walks you through a comprehensive "exam-day playbook," from the importance of restorative sleep to the administrative details of the testing center check-in. For the GLEG exam, practitioners should arrive fifteen minutes early and use the provided scratch paper to "brain dump" key acronyms the moment the session begins. In practice, having a pre-defined routine—such as a specific breathing technique for moments of panic—ensures that you maintain your professional poise during the most difficult questions. A common pitfall is attempting to "cram" new information in the final hour, which often leads to cognitive interference and a loss of clarity. By executing a calm and confident playbook, you ensure that your hard-earned knowledge is the only thing the exam evaluates on your big day.
