After you leave the exam room

1. Prepare for a retest. It’s just like the Space Shuttle crew taking time to carefully shut down the bird even when they’re safely on the ground. Take the time immediately to make notes about what you found most difficult about the exam. If you need to retest, those notes are your shortest, most reliable path to follow-up success.

2. Relax and wait for your results. At this point, there’s nothing left but to enjoy the quiet after the storm. So do it. Hug your family, play with your dog, and be optimistic. You’ve done everything you needed to do, and now you can enjoy the quiet.
