 “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”

Students, Exams and Stress

Students are the most common victims of such stress patterns. Stress during exam period in students is seen increasing today. Reasons for this stress are as many as you can consider. Being stressed not only affects their performance but also invites sickness during exams. The fear of failure or the expectations of a glorious result adds-up to this already built stress.Effectively dealing with such stress can boost a student’s moral, improve their performance, and improve their mental and emotional health as well.

Today’s competitive world makes it necessary for the students to be able to effectively cope up with their daily stress. Excessive and prolonged stress in students may lead to serious mental disorders and other health-related issues. Knowing ways to cope with stress can ensure sound and healthy mental state for students with improved academic performance and hale and hearty living, too. Out of all, the prominent ones are highlighted in this blog by one of the student from AISSMS College of Pharmacy. Read about what causes stress in students and also about how to manage it.

Stress can accelerate when there is a frightening thought and you keep running that in your mind. For example, your imaginary failure in exam and then its made-up outcomes. Do not dwell in the past nor dream the future; just live in the present.

4. Give yourself a break -

While it is necessary to study and revise vigorously, it is even more important to maintain a balance between both the sides. Keep taking tiny breaks every now and then. This will re-energize your mind and body.

8. Know that you are are in control of your life -

You may have an exam, but it is your choice how well you perform in it. Also, do not let friends or people around you drive your fear of exam; for it is you who are facing it and you alone are responsible for its outcome.

9. Prepare Yourself - 

Stress can speed up with the fear of unknown. Fear and anxieties arise about the unexpected. Know what you are facing and prepare accordingly.
