Dear Students!

We know that you are all in the verge of attending your first terminal examinations.

Today we are going to talk about an important problem, which you all would have been facing in almost all of your earlier attended examinations and tests.

This problem is mostly not looked upon in the right way and not thought about in depth.

What are we talking about? Can you all guess!

If you are not successful in your guess, let me tell you – its all about EXAMINATION FEAR.

What do you all think would be the reason for this problem?

Will any of the following be the reason for ‘examination fear’?

- Improper preparation for the examination.

- No proper planning done before the examination.

- Not understood the concepts and lessons well.

- Not much of hard work and effort put in to thoroughly understand the subjects.

Though all the above reasons may seem to be one of the reasons for this fear, it is not the root cause of the problem. Though you are very thorough and well versed with that day’s examination or test, the fear in your mind might lead to performing low in the examination. We at www.classontheweb.com, in the interest of the students have thought deeply about this and analyzed the problem psychologically and found the root cause leading to this problem.

Most of you, just before the examination, create lot of expectation about your examination as

- will the paper be easy or tough?

- will you get the questions well learnt?

- will the questions be difficult or twisted?

- will you be able to remember and reproduce what you have already learnt?

- will you make careless mistakes?

- will you be able to answer the questions in the given stipulated time?

These expectations create the examination fear in you

Remember, "EXPECTATION CREATES FEAR".

Once the fear crops in, your mind is under a mental block and at that point of time, you will not be able recall the answers to the questions, though you were very thorough with it.

Having known the root cause of the problem, let us tell you how to overcome this problem which would be very useful for you and you would be able to excel in your future examinations and tests.

The solution is,

"For any examination, prepare the portion for the examination very deeply in the manner in which it has to be learnt and make it very thorough in all respects. After doing this, never ever think about the type of questions that would come up in the examination. Let this not disturb you in anyway. Bluntly refuse the very thought. Keep your mind blank like a spotless paper. You should think about the question paper only when you receive it in your hand on your examination day. Then you see the difference. You would be able to reproduce exactly what you have learnt without leaving a single point and also solve the problems speedily."
