Problems of Exam time

& Its Solutions

 Introduction
Dear Students,
There are lots of difficulties
being faced by Students during the
exam time. All these difficulties
starts from student’s own thinking,
perception & attitude.
• Thinking about high marks without proper,
continuous & deeper study can be called
day-dreaming.
• Searching for a shortcut is a dangerous
thing for the future of the student.
• Main Difficulty starts when students
compete with each other for the marks,
They should not compete with each other
but with his/herself. They should make
their own performance chart and improve
their skills, abilities in the areas they are
lagging behind.
• Here there are some suggestions that can help
you to study tension free during the exams.
• Before giving some suggestions it will be right to
say here that these suggestion may help you as
secondary methods. But the first and most
important aspect is your confidence, belief in
your self & in your potentialities.
Let’s find out why exams take place.
 Why Exams?
• For testing your capacity.
• For testing your knowledge.
• For testing your goal.
• For testing your quality.

– To utilize your Present & make your Future,
Exams are necessary.
• Dear Students, I hope that
you can understand that
Exams are not a worrying or
stressful condition. It is a
condition of commitment
where you can prove
yourself.
 Study in
a Specific quiet Place
• Ideally you should study in a
quiet, well- lighted area
free from disturbances. If
possible you should also have
at least one place where you
can do your study only, do
not do other things at that
particular place.

 Solutions For Reading Problems
• Read your topic again and again as a tradition
saying, “Japat Siddhi Japat Siddhi (Chant
mantra & get mastery over the object of
mantra).”
• Revision is the mother of memory.
• When you read your topic, tick mark your
doubtful lines or words and try to consult
with your teacher, friends & others, who can
help you. Otherwise read it again and again
unless you get the clear concept of the
topic.
• Some students complain that they
forget answers in the examination
hall. It may happen for a little time
but a question, has a capacity to
find answer in the mind and it gets
its success at last. Relax,
Concentrate and try to find the
related link of the answer it can be
a word, image, chart, number etc.
Relate New Ideas with previous
Knowledge
You have probably noticed that it is
easier to remember ideas that are
related to personality and have
meaning.
When you study your chapter, try to
link new facts, terms and concepts and
specially images with the information
you already know well. Colored images
are easy to memorize and can be used
with boring or tricky answers.
• A Lot of study material is very easy
to understand, but student always
feel confusion with it.
• Some students read original books
directly without reading text books.
Original books are the source of good
knowledge but a starter may get
confused. So Students should consult
text books for perfect basic concept
of the subject.
 In Exam Hall
• Read all instructions and questions
carefully. They may give you good
advises or clues. Take at least 10
minutes in reading them
• Quickly survey the question paper
and select the questions you want to
answer before you begin to write
your answer in examination hall. But
be relaxed and take a smile.
 Solutions For
Writing Problems
• Writing plays a vital role in exam.
• Before the exam do practice for a good hand
writing. Write 2 to 4 answers per day in a
beautiful hand writing in a demanding time.
Use your time wisely.
• Always make a habit of writing your answers
in Points with examples as required. The
examiner finds it quite easy to read the
points written in a proper manner.
 In Exam hall
1. Give Answers in limited words or according
to the demand of the questions. If you write
your answer in 90 words for a 3 marks
questions, and in 30 words for a 16 marks
questions that will affect your marks
adversely .
2. Don’t write other things that are not
required by the question. You should write
your answer perfectly related to that
question only, never write a Potha (A non-
understandable story).
3. Answer the easier questions first
than spend your time on more
difficult ones.
4. Explain in detail with different
points & headings.
5. Give appropriate examples related
to questions.
6. Answer all the questions don’t miss
any one.
Solutions For Health Problems
• A good health is the pillar of an ideal life.
Without a good health you can’t concentrate,
memorize on your studies.
• Most of the students Change their lifestyle
during exam time. They keep awake during
night time and drink lot of tea and coffee
which is hazardous for their health. This
disturbs the biological clock of the body thus
decreasing the energy level which indirectly
creates many other problems mainly being
the problem of low Concentration power
• Without relaxing & deep sleeping we
can’t do our best, because balanced &
best work always comes from a cool
active and alert mind.
• “Early to bed & early to rise”, should
be your mantra. The time of early
morning is the best to memorize,
read and concentrate on your studies.
Note: All the students of DSVV wake up at 4 in
the morning and sleep around 9 in the night.
• Take light diet in short
intervals.
• Do some yogic practices ( Yog
nidra, Asana – pragya yog,
Surya namaskara ) & play
games (Badminton, Table
tennis, Chess etc.) for mental
relaxation and to become free
from stress related problems.
