Maybe give some free advice about: Colleges & Universities?
One thing you could try is focusing on the easy parts of the test first (unless it's something like an oral exam where you must answer each question one at a time as it is given). This should help you to gain confidence and calm down for the more difficult parts of the test. On the harder questions, focus first on what you can remember and work from there. If it is a complex calculation, plug in the things you do know and work the parts you can recall, that should help your mind to remember the other parts.

Calm down... You have test anxiety. It's pretty common. Infact, the girl that sat next to me last semester during political science had test anxiety, though her's was probably mild compared to yours.
Visit your school counselor. Your counselor can recommend some practices that may reduce your anxiety, or, if your anxiety is really severe, might be able to refer you to a doctor. You may also want to discuss your anxiety with your teachers. While they may not be able to do anything to help your anxiety, they may be able to help you raise your grade if it's been lowered by some bad test scores. (Ask for extra credit assignments or if you can retake the exams you scored lowest on.)
