Want Better Preparation? Which Study Method Helped You Feel Confident?

A few days ago, I was busy completing my final college assignment and preparing for an important classroom presentation, so I could not study as much as I had planned for my nursing entrance exam. To check my progress, I decided to complete a practice teas exam before continuing my revision. It showed me which subjects needed more attention and helped me plan my remaining study time more effectively. Has anyone else used this approach, and did it improve your confidence before the actual exam?
