• You can eat something that is easy to digest and not too heavy before your test. For example, a sandwich made of whole grain bread stuffed with lean protein and vegetables. Further, to prevent feeling sluggish or experiencing indigestion after eating, it is suggested that you avoid consuming foods high in fat and stay hydrated and vigilant by making sure you’re drinking enough water.

• 4. Don’t Forget to Breathe

• Deep breathing is an easy yet powerful technique for overcoming stress. Before your driving test, try focusing on taking slow deep breaths for a few minutes and start with finding a serene place to relax while sitting or standing comfortably.

• Deeply breathe in the air via your nostrils and hold for some time before slowly exhaling it via your mouth, then perform this exercise multiple times with a focus on sensing how your breath flows in and out. This will help you calm your entire nervous system.
