Subject: Tips for my friend who is going to give a test

Hello Beimar a pleasure to greet you I hope you are having a good time, I send you this
email to give you some advice since I know that next week you are going to take the
exam.
First and foremost you must be well prepared for the day of the exam so you must study
from various sources but it is not necessary that you memorize it but that you understand
what you read or study.
On the other hand do not forget to bring what are pens, calculators so that you are not in
trouble lending that day in the exam.
And finally I wish you the best of luck for your exam, concentrate and I'm sure you will
do great Beimar, don't be nervous and you'll see how everything will turn out very well.

Bye.
Take care.
Kisses
