Students Urged to Stay Calm as Telangana Schools Conduct Health Exams
Eminent psychiatrist Dr. Sohel Ahmed said that students need not worry or be afraid of exams. On Wednesday, at the Telangana Model School in Karepally mandal center, Inter and Class X students were educated on how to appear for the public exams to be held in March without getting stressed, along with District Medical Officer (DM&HO) Dr. B. Rama Rao. Speaking on the occasion, he said that during childhood, children are likely to develop personality disorders due to not developing proper adjustment with their parents, other people and social situations. He said that such a situation arises due to the conflict between ego and superego. Such people are called neurotic personalities in psychology.
They say that they experience symptoms like unreasonable fears, worries, and hypochondria. They say that when exams are approaching, they feel panicky, which is called anxiety neurosis. They explain that somatic symptoms like shortness of breath, chest pain, sweating, fatigue, stomach ache, headache, increased pulse rate, dry mouth and lips, tense muscles, and sweaty palms and soles are seen. Therefore, if we let go of fear, victory is ours.. He said that self-confidence is the main weapon to achieve goals. He said that suggestions from teachers, parents, friends, and close friends, and planned preparation help in building self-confidence among students.
He said that if you can overcome your fear and go into the examination hall with confidence, you have achieved half the success. He said that as soon as you get the question paper in the examination hall, you should keep your mind calm and not get stressed, read it thoroughly and immediately make a plan. He said that you should identify the questions that came out well, the questions that came out with a few errors, and the questions that did not come out, and write the questions that came out well first. Then the questions that came out with a few errors and then think about the rest. He advised that you should be careful to write answers to all the questions while observing the time. School Principal Prem Kumar, Vice Principal Bhaskar Rao, and Health Supervisor Saraswati participated in this program.
