I then use this to write and rewrite the steps from memory.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sounds weird but I also visualise the steps and what will happen on the day...basically I&#39;m trying everything!</p> <p>Best of luck, remember the examiners have all been there themselves.</p> <p>Emily</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143189?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 05 Jun 2013 15:15:23 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:e400e4c4-349f-4617-9048-96e1336a2fa6Jo Oakden<p>I talked my way through mine. If I realised I had done something wrong, I explained to the examiner that I had done that wrong, and could I do it again, or would explain how I should have done it. They know how nervous practicals make people so they are all very patient and friendly. </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
