Answer 1

C. If she is stressed and feeling unprepared, taking some time everyday for a week to study should help her be better prepared.

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. The best way for Ava to relieve her stress about an exam would be to manage her time by setting up a study schedule for the week prior to the exam. This way she can be organized and focused and she can even set herself goals along the way for what she needs to achieve each day for that week. The more she avoids focusing on the study the more stress she will feel. Making a schedule will help take off the pressure.
