Exams are important; but they’re not a horror movie.
For students:
Study a little every day (your brain prefers snacks, not buffets). Understand concepts, practise a few questions, and please sleep All-nighters impress your eye bags, not examiners.
In the exam hall, read the question properly (yes, properly), start with what you know, and keep an eye on the clock…not like it’s a thriller, just a friendly glance.
For parents:
Encourage, don’t interrogate.
Hangry is a real emotion. Hungry with a side of angry…or cranky Feed them well, trust their preparation, and save the “How was the paper?” for another day.
Calm parents = calmer children.
And do not compare, even if it’s so tempting to do.
Remember: exams test knowledge, not worth.
Do your best, and…Let the rest go!
