Exams are here!

              Exams Are Here!

        It's exam week and everybody at Sulli is panicking about them. All of the students are anyways. The students are nervously studying and trying to think of new methods that will help them remember the facts they need. Only two more days are left until the 2 day period for exams to finish. Monday, January 20th is thankfully a flex day for some relieved students at Sulli but many are still dreading the double block days yet to come. I interviewed a few students on their perspective of the exams. One said, "I think exams are there to make sure that students don't forget anything even though they already forgot." Another student said, "We don't actually need them because the teachers would just be able to average the marks we received throughout the course. It puts alot of pressure on the students and some of the times they can blank out and forget everything because of all the pressure."



      Some are terrified while others may not be, but I think it really depends on how you study and on how confident you are. There is really a lot of tension in the school when it does get to this time of year though. One thing I have found out though is that it's scientifically proven that if you have chocolate before you take any test, exam, or even a quiz, it will automatically calm your nerves down. The trick is though, "to study smarter, not harder." 

Here I have added some links to help students cope with their exam stress:
