The child, who is self-confident and feels on firm ground, becomes more successful in examinations


The applications for the examinations for the YKS (Higher Education İnstitutions) have already started. It has been announced previously that the minimum passing score was no longer applicable in the examinations due to be held by the Council of Higher Education (YÖK) in two sessions on the dates of June 18 and 19.


Dr. Arzu SOMAY, who is the Academic Member of the Department of Psychology of the Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences of the Istanbul Gelisim University told about how the examination group students and their families will challenge and cope up with the “examination stress” and bring down the stress and pressure on the students at the new system where it is planned that every student can attend in the university.

While some students can easily display their performance in the examinations, some other students, who are hardworking and intelligent, can be unsuccessful as a result of the stress, experienced by them.  The Academic Member Dr. Arzu SOMAY, who emphasized that it was necessary for the students having anxiety for displaying their performance at the examination pertaining thereto to bring their feeling of confidence forth, said as follows: ‘’The stress is one of the natural reactions, given by the body against anything fearful and threatening. All of us may experience stress from time to time. The stress is not harmful all the time; a level of mild stress may be motivating and energy-boosting. However when the level of stress is too high, it may both block the skills pertaining to the preparation for examinations and create difficulty during the examination.’’

YOUR CHILD MAY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE EXAM STRESS IF THESE INDICATIONS OCCUR ON HIM/HER

The stress that may cause different indications in various numbers of persons may reveal itself generally in the children and youngsters with the anxious behaviours, and feelings of irritability and tension. At the same time, in case there are headache, stomach pain, sleeping and eating disorders available on your child, it is significantly important to seek the aid of a specialist. The youngsters may experience a feeling of despair with relation to their future as a result of the examination stress. The earlier preclusion of this circumstance will bring easier elimination of the stress in question.

TRY THIS METHOD DEFINITELY TO COPE UP WITH THE EXAMINATION STRESS

It is necessary to bring down the stress in order to experience higher success in examinations. In this respect, it is significantly important to bring down the feelings, which contain stress getting hold of our opinions and feelings, and use our awareness within this scope. In order to acquire such awareness, it is absolutely necessary to take the practice examinations. Along with this, you can use this technique in order to manage your stress at any environment where you take part in it: Use the thumb of one of your hands and make massage by pressing it into the palm of your other hand.  

The Academic Member Dr. Arzu SOMAY, who emphasized that there has been a life beyond the exam results, indicated as follows:
‘’Notwithstanding that they may appear to be the most important thing in the world, the excessive stress that you may host within your body for the sake of these examinations will not help you make the best of it. Become aware of this excessive stress and blow out by repelling it. You are the only one within the world and become just yourself. As a matter of fact that it is you, who is more important than your examinations, success grades and sentiments. Just do the best that you are able to do on the day of examination and evaluate the opportunity that the result of such examination may bring in and become ready to be proud of yourself.’’
