EXAM- Easy and Xtraordinary Application of Mind

“An aroma of happiness he breathed
A wave of joy embraced him
A sudden tornado of exams appeared before him
Violent enough to subside all his courage.”

An exam season- a phrase strong enough to scare the freak out of students now-a-days. Let me ask you something. By hearing about exams, don’t you co-relate it with tension? Burden? That is where we all take a slip.

Kalpana too had become a victim of this slip. Kalpana who can be given the metaphor of ‘a silent killer’ was a scholar, in fact a topper. She topped almost every year in her university exams. It is from the public’s eye that every scholar’s life is too happening. Well, in case of Kalpana, even her silhouette wasn’t aware of the tension she used to carry.

I know what is running in your mind- why would a topper worry about exams? The answer is the fear of failure, the fear to lose her reputation and the fear to repeat the exam. Even if you have the fears like Kalpana did, you need to change your perspective towards exams, my friend.

If explained in a sentence, exams are nothing but a “creative” way to represent your imagination. Yes, creative. How?

All that works in your exams is your imagination. You mull, you brush up your brains with the information given in the questions. If your imagination matches the criteria of the questions, it means you’ve hit the correct imagination. If not, you may fail. But, but, but! That’s actually good because not only you will get an extra chance to give exam again but also you can upgrade your imagination power. So beneficial!

Thinking of the marks, now? Oh, they hold no power. Whether you fail or succeed, no one is ever going to ask your marks. So just keep them aside.

Enjoy your exams. It is not actually a test. It is a way to increase your creativity, your imagination, no matter if the exam is technical or non-technical. If you succeed, you have all the imagination you need. If not, you can upgrade by next exam. After all, exams are a part of your educational career. They are something that ignite your knowledge, not end it!
