As an English tutor, I've helped many students in this exact situation. Here's my crash course method:1. Skim and scan - Quickly review all materials and identify the 20% of content that will likely be 80% of the exam.2. Create cheat sheets - Not for actual cheating, but the act of condensing information helps retention. Use different colors for themes, characters, literary devices.3. Focus on essay structure - If there's an essay component, memorize a simple structure: Introduction (thesis), 3 body paragraphs (point-evidence-explanation), conclusion.4. Practice with past papers - If available, do one under timed conditions to get used to the pressure.5. Use mnemonic devices - Create silly associations to remember literary terms or grammar rules.6. Teach someone - Explaining concepts to a friend (even an imaginary one) reveals what you truly understand.Remember that English exams often reward quality over quantity. One well-developed idea is better than three poorly explained ones.You can do this! Just stay calm and focused.

Been there! Cramming for an English exam is stressful but doable. Here's my emergency study plan:First, prioritize what's on the exam:- Literature analysis? Focus on main themes, characters, and symbols of key texts- Grammar rules? Review the most common errors (their/there/they're, punctuation, etc.)- Essay writing? Practice structuring arguments quicklyCreate a study schedule with 45-minute study blocks and 15-minute breaks. During breaks, move around and hydrate - it helps retention.For literature: Use online summaries like SparkNotes to quickly grasp key points. Focus on 2-3 main texts that are most likely to appear.For writing: Practice writing thesis statements and outlines rather than full essays. This builds the skill without taking hours.Use active recall - cover your notes and try to explain concepts out loud. This works better than passive rereading.Get at least 6 hours of sleep - pulling an all-nighter will hurt your performance more than help.Good luck! I managed to pass my college English final with this approach, though I don't recommend making it a habit!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques really helped me with this! Here are some practical steps:Challenge your thoughts - Ask yourself: "Is this thought helpful? Is it true? What evidence do I have for and against this thought?"Schedule worry time - Designate 15 minutes each day to obsess/worry, and when those thoughts come at other times, tell yourself "I'll think about this during my worry time."Practice gratitude - Keep a journal and write down 3 things you're grateful for each day. This shifts focus from what's wrong to what's right.Help someone else - Volunteering or simply doing something kind for another person gets you out of your own head.Develop hobbies that require focus - Things like learning an instrument, painting, or coding force your brain to concentrate on something other than your thoughts.I've been practicing these for about six months, and the difference in my happiness and peace of mind has been remarkable.

I went through this process last year from Islamabad! Here's the current procedure:Step 1 - Get admission to a recognized Georgian university and receive your acceptance letter.Step 2 - Prepare documents:- Valid passport (minimum 6 months validity)- Completed visa application form- Passport-sized photographs- University acceptance letter- Proof of financial means (bank statements, sponsorship letters)- Academic certificates and transcripts- Medical insurance valid in Georgia- Visa fee payment receiptStep 3 - Submit application at the Georgian Embassy in Islamabad or through authorized visa centers.Step 4 - Attend interview if required.Processing time is typically 2-4 weeks. I'd recommend applying at least 2 months before your program starts to account for delays.The Georgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website has the most current requirements: https://www.geoconsul.gov.geGood luck with your studies! Tbilisi is a beautiful city with growing international student community.
