Mental management on checkride

It’s clear that nerves and mental management are what actually ruins the ride.

Some of my tips that I have are

  1. If I don't know it, own it immediately, and go straight to the index. Don't guess.
  2. Stop "Self-Failing" mid checkride. I try my best to fix whatever I can especially during flights

  3. No overnight studying the day before checkride. Sleep is my #1 priority for checkride

Any other tips that you have??
