Examination Fever



Ameena Sayed
                                                      
Being a teacher teaching some of the key subjects in a private school, I am very well aware of the concept of examination fever.  Most of the students face this problem. Not only the not-so-brilliant students but also many brilliant students  face it because of the pressure they get from internal and external sources to score the highest marks.

Now-a-days even toddlers are suffering from this problem. The parents are pressurizing the students to aim at some imaginary, unrealistic  and unreasonable goal. Due to the constant pressure to excel in all the class tests, monthly tests, and semesters the children are now prone to this examination fever.

Just like any other mental distress , this is also a kind of mental disease. It seems to be just a phrase but it is a serious problem in some severe cases. The constant pressure to excel and to meet their unrealistic aims the students try to put in more and more efforts but end up performing very less than what they would have otherwise performed. Some children will work hard day-in and day-out and do not take care of their health by not following proper diet. This leads to unhealthy body with ever more unhealthy mind which may not function the way it should. As a result, their performance is hampered.

Then what ? This is not the end! Then there is a twist in the story, Then is the saga of  failures. This is then dragged all the life specially if the child has appeared for the SSLC examination. The parents and teachers are somehow never satisfied. Even to a child who scored 98 in Maths, they would say “you could have got 100 very easily“. Come-on, take a break, the child has given the best shot and he has made it. Similarly just-pass children are treated as the failures of future. “He will not make big in life”, a  teacher would just vaguely say . Not to forget to mention about the failed children, it is like the sky has fallen on their puny little heads and that it is so heavy that they cannot lift their head up again. Everyone treats them like criminals who have done the most offensive thing in the world. The world will term them to be the hopeless cases with meager chances to make it in this world.
 
Just like success stories these stories of failures are told to the students again and again who are now aware how the world would treat them if they did not perform well. All these knowledge and information acquired by the students well-in-advance is an enroute to examination fever.

How to overcome this?
Very simple methods to overcome examination fever 
1) Set realistic aims as per your ability and capacity.
2) Be regular to school and be attentive in class.
3) Study regularly and not just a day or a month before examination
4) Come up with more and more questions to understand the subject.
5) Write and practice.
6) Take the exams easily i.e just give your best shot and do not worry  
    about the result because if you follow 1 to 5, there is no chance of   
    getting less marks
7)Eat nutritious meals and sleep well because healthy body and sound mind is the key of success.
8) Most important be happy and cheerful and enjoy your student hood to the  fullest.
