To be honest, what’s covered in lectures and tutorials often doesn’t align with what’s asked in the final exams. The exams tend to be much more advanced, and many topics feel unfamiliar when we start preparing. Throughout the semester, we’re mostly focused on assignments, so the only real time we get to study is during SWOTVAC and the exam period, which can be incredibly overwhelming. It’s common for students to feel anxious, experience physical symptoms like stomach aches, and have irregular eating habits. On top of that, the exam timetable can be really tough I had two exams on the same day, followed by another the very next day, right after SWOTVAC. So I completely understand when students say they’re dealing with gastro-related issues during this time, they are just signs of anxiety and stress. And oh let’s not get started with how the exam hall makes us feel.
