Tips to Overcome Exam Fear

Exams are often considered as a ‘fear’ factor among children. Students of all age groups do undergo exam anxiety and have ‘exam phobia’ when it’s around the corner. Some do take it easy while some cannot. The extent of stress is too much that drives them to take extreme measures. The fear is more before the exams causing them to underperform on that day. It’s worse when the students have older brothers or sisters who have performed well, and they are expected to keep up to those standards.
