You've done the hard work now show them what you've learned. Remember, the examiner does not want to be your friend, he couldn't care less so avoid writing emotively, get to the point, stay focused on the question, repeat the question in your answers..
Do not snatch defeat from the jaws of victory! 
All the best, it's been a real pleasure teaching you. 
Mr E.
