How To Tackle Exams in 5 Awesome Steps.

Here are 5 Awesome Steps which will help you to Score MAXIMUM Marks with MINIMUM Stress.



1. Don't start Too Early with preparations.




People say that the more you study, the more you will score. What a stupid thought. Most of the parents think 4-5 hours should be spent on studies to score maximum marks in Exams.
Don't listen to them, be Awesome instead! The more earlier you will start, the more early you will loose interest or will forget later on, because we have too many subjects and Everyone is not Einstein, Start maximum 4 days before the Exam day because there is a human tendency to work exceptional under pressure. With margin of 4 days you will have right amount of pressure and time to score Optimum marks in the Exam.
Doesn't it happen that you might start too late and then beg God to shift exam just for another day so that you can complete rest of your topics. Again, I said to be Awesome and not to be Foolish there is very thin line between them, so start 4-5 days before the Exams for 1-2 hours and do not pile up these 3-4 days on the last day as God isn't gonna grant your extension Wish(Experienced victim sitting here).

2. Start with the Topic you find easy or interesting.




Tough job isn't it? Easy and interesting may sound really contradicting to the thought when we are using these words for studies. Well i agree with you, most of the subjects may appear useless and rarely you will apply them in your life if they are not your core subjects. 
Okay lets do an Exercise.
  • Sit on the chair.
  • Take deep breaths and think "why are these things taught to you?"
If the answer is some stupid shit. Well, you are really a hopeless person then but still let me answer that for you.
You are taught all these things so that you can understand the basics about the working of EVERYTHING like history, geography, computers, maths,physics and blah blah. Once you will find out why are you studying these stuffs, you will start asking questions regarding them. The more Questions you ask, the more interest you develop! Bingo! The thing which catches your interest first in your studies, start your exam preparations with it and Believe me! You are gonna be unstoppable after that!


3. Do not restrict yourself.





Don't be stupid, we have got only one Life so Why to become an Asshole for a week or two when it comes to exam preparation.
Parents think that if their child will not watch television, won't use mobile, won't play games on laptop then he/she will be the topper of the Class.  HURRAY!!! 
But sorry there is no such algorithm to be the Best in the Class.
Well it might work, but actually you are training your child like ring master trains a monkey. Sorry but yes, think again what are you asking from your kid and is he/she really capable of delivering that. 
I am on your side students,but the thing is whenever you sit to study even for 10 minutes. Try to make it worthy! You are wasting 10 minutes of your life studying a book  then why not make it purposeful, so that if anyone ask you what you did in 10 minutes, at least you can tell them the topic name you started with. 


 4. Finish with all the parties and cravings before finally deciding to study for the exams.




Don't keep parties pending, throw parties, join them, have fun. Why to wait for exams to get over, have parties before a week or so. 
Craving is one of the biggest factor which will distract you from developing concentration and as a side effect of it you will go crazy and will find anything in this world more interesting than the course book. 
Finish the Cravings, wanna eat ice creams? Have 3-4 of them. Wanna party hard? Dance for hours in your favorite clubs, don't stop. Do whatever you crave for and then finally you will settle down by yourself and will develop the required attention towards the studies. Still, try to finish your cravings at least one week before the exams because as I previously said, Be Awesome and not Foolish.  

5. Create Hunting List for the Topics of the Exam.




Be a Hunter during exams, kill the topics, win over them warrior! Be the King or Queen and show all the teachers and parents that 
YES WE PARTY!
YES WE HAVE GIRL FRIENDS or BOY FRIENDS
YES WE ARE SHAMELESS
But when asked to perform. We can prove that what we are capable of!
Study with whole passion, not to score marks but to prove that you can be COOL and a GEEK at the same time! 
For the ones who don't know, Geek is the new Cool!
So, create a list of topics which you have to study for your exam and mark a [X] cross after you complete them! 
Hunt them down Peeps! They are coming at you, to prove that you are incapable of winning over them. Be the army of COOL, make it a trend that we can Work hard because we partied Harder! 

Be Awesome! Be Anything! B)
