Exams are important as their results
influence future professional career,
social status and self–esteem. Every
person has own optimal level of worry
and anxiety, which helps him/ her to
achieve the best results. We must learn

cause great worry, and there are some
symptoms of exam stress (insomnia,
rapid pulse, hands trembling and so on)
we ought to do something about it. We
must prepare students to handle stress
in a better way.
