EXAMINATION
There is hardly any student who has never experienced any stress or pressure during the exams. During exam times, the students feel just a little excitement or thrill. The approach of examinations means the beginning of fear in the mind of student. The bugbear of an examination interrupts the smooth course of a student’s life like games, musical concerts, debates etc. All these activities are stopped when examinations approach.
Students are not to be found at the cinema houses, restaurants and other places of entertainment during those days. Examinations are held to test student’s ability to check up the work they have done during a term, to judge what progress they have made and to determine whether they have been utilizing or wasting their time.
If there were no examinations, the merits of the various students could not be judged, nor would the majority of students take any interest as it is only the fear of examinations, they are aware that their marks will be communicated to the guardians who will take them to task if the results are not satisfactory.
They know also that if they fail they will experience a feeling of humiliation. All these things combine to urge a student to hard work. Examinations are, therefore, an incentive to work hard. The scheme of internal assessment introduced some years ago by some institutions in intended as a step in the direction to keep a watch on the student’s labor and regularity in their studies. However, even this has its own drawbacks.
We are not the only one who is facing the examinations .Generations has appeared in the past for examinations and generations will be appearing in the future too. The fact is one cannot do away with it nor can students run away from the examinations. Many of us are able to learn and integrate information well, yet when it comes to being tested in an exam, some of us suffer from ‘exam stress’ and unable to perform well .
What are the reasons for exams fear?
Personal Experiences.
Fear of Failure.
Fear of being judged by the significant people.
Expectations from self, parents, teachers.
Peer pressure.
Naturally nervous, anxious and worried.
Not prepared thoroughly, Poor skills and study habits.
'Doing your best is important than being the best'... using this as the motto for success I would like to wish all my friends a very Best of Luck for the fast approaching Exams.
