Abstract

Exam phobia is can mentioning that the irrational fear due to the board examination. Unreadiness low time to spending learnings, lack of sleep, parental educational qualification gender discrimination, and type of school, parental educational qualification and family also can influence students fear. The system of education evaluation in mostly based on grading. Students who are sharp in learning show excellent results in grading and they are always appreciated by society, teachers and parents. Students like to live in social gathering of friends, family members and classmates but due to the prevailing education system students do not have much time for their social life and healthy activities like sports, visits and entertainment. In order to get good grades and distinctions in class students are working hard not only in their school timings but also in homes or hostels. Even they do not have time to take proper meal. As a result, their mental and physical health affected due to which they become weak and their immunity system also affected badly. When a student fails to get good marks in grading will be the result stress, phobia, drug addiction, escapism, and even some times suicides. These factors had deep effect on the life ahead. Recently we came across through different social media tools and newspapers that about six students committed suicide after the declaration of higher secondary result, due to the huge mental pressure on students and demand of high marks everywhere. Our system is based on quantity, here number counts rather than the quality. There should be one compulsory period in each educational institution for individual mentoring of students to peruse them and guide them towards practical life.  The grading system should be labelled as a motivation for improvement rather than just a tag of discouragement and disappointment for student. Human beings are not machine beings. In order to promote society and cultural norms students should be encouraged to take part in healthy and thought-provoking academic activities. This study shows the level of exam phobia is average. plus, two students have significant difference in the familial influence on the exam phobia.
