Long Essay on Examination Fever 500 Words for Kids and

Students in English
Even the saints say, “God! Do not put us to test.” A test saps the energies of a person,
generates mental agony and makes him incapable of thinking in a proper and logical
manner. Examinees shudder at the thought of the examination and the fear of failure
makes them depressed. Evil dreams haunt the students and the dose of admonition
given to them regularly disturbs them.

Before the examination, the students suspend pleasure-oriented activities. They do not
go to the playground. They also cancel their picnic schedules and forget about going to
the latest movies. They are busy with their books. They go on reading while sipping a
cup of tea. They go on revising while lying in their beds. They discuss questions, talk
about books and dream about answers. Some confine themselves to their rooms and
stick to chairs while some others sit in remote corners.

The examination fever touches the highest point on the night before the examination.
One gets disturbed sleep. Students get up early in the morning and even the atheists
start to pray. In front of the examination hall, one feels that everything has drained out
of one’s brain. A friend says, “This question is sure to be set.” Another says, “Have you
prepared these questions?” The student feels disturbed and turns the pages of his
books in a hasty manner. He/She tries to go over the answers.

As soon as he/she takes his/her seat in the examination hall, he/she prays to God and
revises the questions. If the question paper is difficult, glasses of water are asked for.
An easy question paper may make the choice of questions difficult. As the examinee
settles down to answer the questions, he/she might feel that most of what he/she had
learned has evaporated from his/her brain.

Even after the examination, the fever still haunts the student. He/She tells his/her friend,
“I was a bit confused” or “I could not do justice to some of the questions.” He/She
counts marks and thinks of what division he/she would get. He/She continues to be in
suspense till the result day dawns. He/She tries to find his or her roll number in the
result sheet. This moment is very troublesome because failure would invite great
disappointment to everyone related to the examinee, i.e teachers, parents, friends,
relatives and neighbours. Even if he/she gets through he/she would be heard saying,
“There is something wrong with the examiner. Perhaps my answer sheets were replaced
with those of a weak student.”
Examination fever is in fact, a painful experience for every student. But right approach
and proper studying schedule throughout the session may help to get over examination
fever very easily.
