As peak exam season approaches, millions of students are grappling with pressures far beyond textbooks. For Class 10 and 12 CBSE board students, alongside JEE Main Session 1 results and the upcoming Session 2, the mental strain has become as challenging as the exams themselves. Sleepless nights, last-minute revisions, and persistent uncertainty are testing students’ endurance and focus.
Teachers and educationists stress that while exam stress is real, it can be effectively managed with the right strategies. Pallavi Pathak, a teacher at Sri Guru Nanak Public School, advises students to break the syllabus into smaller goals, maintain a daily timetable, take short breaks, and revise regularly. She also highlights lifestyle habits such as proper sleep, nutritious food, light exercise, and relaxation techniques like deep breathing to stay calm and focused.
Praneet Mungali, Trustee at the Sanskriti Group of Schools, adds that stress is often fueled by expectations, comparisons, and fear of disappointing parents. Yet, many students are finding personal ways to cope, such as dividing preparation into chapters, taking walks, practicing mindfulness, or discussing doubts with peers. These habits not only ease stress but also improve concentration and retention.
The pressure of overlapping exams is real, as highlighted by students like Shrey Sharma and Abhishek Garg, who balance board preparations with pending JEE results. While anxiety peaks, students are learning to focus on one task at a time, manage their emotions, and avoid burnout.
Beyond academics, students are developing essential life skills: managing uncertainty, seeking support, and separating self-worth from marks. Parents play a key role by fostering emotional safety, valuing effort over outcomes, and offering reassurance rather than adding pressure.
Ultimately, this exam season is not just about ranks or scores. It teaches resilience, self-care, and coping mechanisms that will benefit students throughout their academic and personal lives. Success, as educators note, lies in enduring pressure without losing one’s mental and emotional balance.
