Test anxiety is fairly common but they don't usually lead to full blown panic attacks. There are simple relaxation and deep breathing strategies that can help with test anxiety. Deep breaths with exaggerated exhales can activate a part of the nervous system that evokes a relaxation response. There are also cognitive strategies that when paired with full body muscle relaxation can help reduce anxiety.
Full panic attacks tend not to be that situationally specific and if they are frequent often need medicine to help. Anxiety and panic are the emotional brain's way of alerting us to danger.
