* Tips for taking exams:
What do we mean by exam phobia?
Exam phobia is an extreme or abnormal fears of what the students are going to write inside their examination paper and what result they will have got.



What are the reasons of being afraid of exams?


Before answering this questions , I’d like to say something of my common experience


Of my teaching life, that more than 50 percent of students , especially among secondary schools students suffer from exam phobia.
It doesn’t matter that this student is an intelligent or not. All the students are worried about forgetting their schooling information or overlooking something or other while appearing the examinations’



papers. This means that student are not able to recall important facts at the time of exams , so the result here is feeling or law score and these fears and worry are become berries in their performance, especially during the examinations
* So the reasons of being afraid of exams are:
 
  The type of the courses that teachers teach inside schools depend on introductive



not productive method. This means that students should research to fit their needs


not to introduce their needs through these courses and ask them to learn them by heart for exams.


So students concentrate on the amount they have recited or learnt and this is lead to fears if they forget something.
2-If a student sufferd from some family’s problems,he wouldn’t be able to complete such exams.
 3- If a student doesn’t able to recall what he has studied, he would suffer of some disease such as headache and faint; also some students suffer from diarrheas as soon as they enter the exam room.



4- the huge silence inside the exam room or hearing a word such exam or saying study hard for exam, all that lead to phobia.
