Agreed, you seem to make more of this test than it actually is deep in your mind. Let it go and just relax with your SO, see a fun movie or better do something fun as you'll concentrate on more of what you're doing than sitting in a dark theater where those nasties can creep in.
That's the key to me as I look at your situation. The only problem I've ever had on tests was in one system where someone other than my instructor(s) tested me--so called masters, who'd obviously never been in a fight in their lives. Like you said, your instructors invited you to test, and they know you. There's no benefit in them having people test who they feel are not ready.
This is pretty much what I do now, too. Works out well. But now, back to the topic.
Right. Just make your Teacher proud. You can do this. Don't sweat this, get some good rest. Hehe -- yes, take your wife to a dinner somewhere, that is good.
Yes, I passed, we all did (six of us tested). I am hobbling around today and my face is marked up, but, somehow, I feel great.
