This is an important test. This test justifies the thousands of dollars spent on massage school, the hours working in the school clinic for free and countless hours determining if a mole looks cancerous. Even thinking about this test raises your blood pressure. Here are some tips to help helping you pass your exam while remaining calm.
Firstly, get yourself a good study guide. It doesn't matter if you borrow it from the library, buy a copy or download one. Make sure your book has test questions and an answer key to test your knowledge. Study these questions on your work breaks, lunch, and anytime you have a free moment. As a LMT who has taken the exam, worked as a massage school instructor, and tutors students on passing, I have written a study guide titled "Don't Panic! Questions & Answers To Help You Pass The Massage Therapy National Exam" available on Amazon.com and http://www.gtorres.weebly.com

Study the basic subjects such as anatomy, ethics, pathologies and massage techniques, but also make sure to study pharmacology and Chinese theory. There will be numerous questions regarding chakras, the five elements, and meridians on the exam. Also make sure you brush up on medical terms.

Stay calm. The more you stress yourself, the more information you will forget. Try to avoid calming your nerves with alcohol. As nervous as you are, you will most likely down enough rum & soda to give yourself an unpleasant hangover for the test. Get a full night sleep the night before and make sure to eat breakfast the day of.
