Stress: How To Improve Your Test Scores

The concept for the experiment came from knowing some of our friends that can’t test well because of stress. Stress can do many things to a person including making them fail a test. We wanted to know if doing anything along the lines of playing a simple game to chewing a piece of gum before a test could help a person test better. If it could it could be very helpful around A.I.M.S time. This could also determine sometimes if you pass or fail a class. If you have that anxiety attack right before a test your mind can sometimes go straight to “panic mode” and you could easily flunk that test. If we could find a way to make that anxiety, panic, or stress go away it could help a lot of kids in schools. That is why my partner and I have come up with this Science Fair Project.
Some studies have shown that people that play video games have improved logical intelligence than other people. They also have better developed other skills that are stronger than other people. I also researched if caffeine helps you and the study shows it does. But the study also shows that you have to have a limit on how much you have. It has also been shown that chewing gum also helps improve test scores. However the study showed that the effects only lasted around 15-20 minutes. A study has shown that eating a good breakfast can help your test scores.
In conclusion many things can affect you test score. In this paper we explored the effects of chewing bubble gum, caffeine, video games, and eating certain foods on a person's test scores. These are a few of the many things that can affect you test
