Pre exam:
Revise carefully but casually, without concentrating too much. Never put too much pressure on yourself. Don't mug anything up. Just remeber the theorems or the laws. All questions are just applications of those. I always do that. If you try to mug up the answers to all the questions in the book, you'll be in trouble. Mugging up too much can make you go blank during examinations. It can happen even to the best student.
Get a very good sleep the night before the exam. Don't sleep less than 6-8 hours. Finish studying and revising as much as you can before you sleep. Don't wake up after 3-4 hours and start studying. When you go to sleep, that's it. Don't touch your books again. This is from experience. I found that if I wake up and continue studying without proper sleep, I'm not fresh enough for the exam and I forget nearly all that I studied after waking up. Never study if you're sleepy.
Eat well. Don't skip meals. Eat slowly. Don't be in a hurry to get back to your books. Concentrate on eating. Don't sacrifice your body for the sake of your brain.
Tips for the exam:
Go through the paper once. Read each question carefully. If you miss even a small detail. It could be a disaster.
If you encounter a tough problem, leave space for it and continue. Remeber, it's not just you and the questions, it is also you against the clock. This has another advantage. Doing easy sums correctly will help you gain confidence. The sums you did not understand earlier will suddenly become clearer to you.
If the paper is objective type with negative marking for wrong answers, leave the questions you don't know. There's no harm in taking calculated guesses. Though it may not be mentioned, you don't get negative marking if you don't answer.
'None of these' is a common option in MCQ's that throws students off the track. Trust yourself. I've seen many good students falling out there. Even if their answer matches one of the options, 'None of these' option puts them off the track. The begin to think, "What if..." and lose easy marks.
Cross-check your paper towards the end. If ther's a lot of time, you can maybe go back to the tough questions you left earlier. Remember, check the questions you answered first. You don't want to unnecessarily get an easy question wrong. Then see the unanswered ones.
Post-exam:
After you leave the exam hall, forget about the paper. Let the results come. Don't discuss the paper with any of your friends.
I wish you the best of luck! Do well!

The best way is to drink water during your maths paper because you don't have confidence but just a glass of water can make you much more confident and it also makes you to be focused in your paper.(don't see the results do your work)

nervousness during any examination is a normal reaction.only thing one has to be careful is that it should not affect the performance.. for this you have to gather confidence and this you can do only by practice, practice and practice till you start enjoying doing mathematical problems. during exam whenever you feel low take a few deep breaths. good luck
