Aasra Advisory for Students stressed out by Exams

The EXAMS are here so here are a few dos and donts for students so that they can keep themselves focussed during this tough period

Remember, exams are just one small milestone in life, not life itself.

1) When you’re anxious, reach out to a close friend, relative, teacher or counsellor you trust
2) Avoid talking to people who make you feel worse about your predicament
3) Don’t talk to friends who make you feel anxious about your exams
4) Do not indulge in a postmortem of a paper once it’s over
5) While writing the paper, focus on what you know first. When you struggle to remember something, your mind can go blank
6) Sleep for eight hours before the paper
7) Eat lots of fruits and vegetables
8) Avoid junk food
9) If you’re in distress, seek professional help.
