Lessons on how to face the exams

It is the time of the year when students are likely to develop sweaty palms and a racing heart. Here are resource groups across Chennai that spell out how to prepare for exams with considerably reduced stress
‘Writing’ the stress away
On the question of self-help measures students can take to reduce stress before exams, Reema Joyice J and Joshua Chelladurai of Ex4 in Action swear by journaling.
During a typical session by this duo, the participating students are asked to first write down their answers to the question: ‘What can I do?’
“Say if a student is not up to date with his/her subjects and has little time in hand then we ask them to write down how they can utilise the little time in the best possible way,” says Joshua.
From there, the student is taught how to plan their time on a daily basis through journaling.
The duo notes that they are prepared to offer their exam-management session pro bono, depending on the school and the number of students signing up for the session.
