This webinar aimed to educate and aware people on Exam Stress and How to Deal with it, Causes of Exam Stress and Understanding and Helping to overcome Exam Anxiety

Every time we hear about a student committing suicide in India, we assume failure in some exams to be the cause. Students preparing for exams often feel under pressure. The pressure may result in feelings of anxiety or nervousness, and this exam stress can interfere with the individual’s daily life. While a certain amount of stress may be beneficial, too much exam stress can cause individuals to perform poorly on tests that mean so much to them. Learning the causes of exam stress can help students to understand their emotions and to regulate their anxiety level.

According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), in the five years leading to 2015, 39,775 students killed themselves. The number of attempted suicides, many be unreported, is likely to be much higher. India has one of the world’s highest suicide rates for youth aged 15 to 29, according to a 2012 Lancet report, which illustrated the need for urgent interventions for this demographic.
