Everything above. But on a more personal level, try and make some jokes with the DPE. Talk to him about flying or something off topic before you start the actual exam. This will relax you and you will do so much better. (as long as he/she is not really mean). But honestly, it helps so much.

Good luck.

P.S. Don't EVER forget the emergency freq. I did for a split second, even though I really did know it. But my DPE ate me up after that. He knew I was nervous and still passed me.
