Dr. Giang said that anxiety before exams is natural, it is "everyone's problem", even parents are equally stressed. To relieve psychological pressure and study effectively, Dr. Giang suggests students:

- Determine specific goals (clearly distinguish between passing the university entrance exam and passing the university entrance exam into the right major/school that you love)

- Build a review plan for the exam each week and each month.

- Build a diet and rest time.

According to this expert, building an effective and scientific review schedule is very necessary. However, many students need to be determined and take it seriously, avoiding the situation of "just staying on paper".

Doing one thing on top of another makes the knowledge absorption ineffective and students feel stressed," Dr. Giang pointed out.

"At Saigon International University, students majoring in psychology are required to experience all subjects related to the foundation and major of psychology; there are 8 modules taught entirely in English, creating opportunities to access foreign documents and develop foreign language skills; students complete their graduation thesis with a scientific research paper" - Dr. Giang informed.
