Cabot wishes all of you the best on your exams & final papers
Just take a deep breath, and take this time to prepare. You have done this before. You’ve survived pretty well so far. You’ll be fine. Pull out your syllabus again and make sure you know when your exam is, and where its being held. Put the shuttle tracker link in your phone. Set an alarm. And remember that you have already proved yourself as a person at Cabot House, and nothing could happen on the exams that would change that. Semper Cor.
