(<a href=\"https:\/\/today.troy.edu\/trojanvision\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TROJANVISION<\/a>) \u2014 With final exams right around the corner, stress is at an all-time high for students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trojan Outreach has tips you can follow to deal with stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBeing prepared is key,\u201d said Meagan Chaudron, peer educator for Trojan Outreach. \u201cDon\u2019t procrastinate. Go ahead and get a good final schedule, put it on a calendar so you know when your finals are, and you can start preparing early for them. And go ahead and make a study guide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chaudron says some students get so overwhelmed they may even have a physical reaction to stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s very common for students to get sick at the end of the year. That\u2019s because of the stress that comes with finals, so if you see your friends starting to get sick, it\u2019s probably because of stress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is why peer educators say it\u2019s crucial to prepare for final exams and always ask for help if you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou can go see your professors during their office hours or go to Eldridge because they have free tutoring there,\u201d Chaudron said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chaudron also stresses the importance of being proactive and studying early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy biggest thing is don\u2019t procrastinate. I have been guilty of that in the past, so just make sure you\u2019re on top of things and you\u2019re prepared. It is key for alleviating stress and not letting it all build up at the end of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students can also visit the John W.
