The first thing you should do is study as much as you can. Start preparing early to be ready when the exam time comes. Even if you feel that it is too early, you should not lose focus. Stay away from people that might distract you as these will make you lose your focus and end up failing the test.

This may be hard, but if you practice, you can memorize all the steps.
