Most students with exam stress know their subjects. The pressure gets in the way of showing it.
10th and 12th, and the feeling that everything rides on them.
NEET, JEE and the long months of coaching before them.
Knowing it at home, and forgetting it in the hall.
Lying awake the night before, or studying till 3 a.m.
Shaking hands, a racing heart, a stomach in knots.
Parents, relatives and teachers all waiting on the result.
Preparing again after a result that went badly.
Too much left, too little time, and no plan.

Free calming tool
When the mind is racing, slow breathing tells the body it is safe. Follow the circle: breathe in as it grows, hold, and breathe out slowly as it shrinks. Six rounds, about a minute and a half.
A calming exercise, not medical care. If you often feel breathless or your chest feels tight, see a doctor.
Press start when you are ready
Marakkanam is a coastal town in the north of Viluppuram district, on the East Coast Road between Chennai and Puducherry. Its salt pans are among the oldest on this coast.
Salt and fishing are hard work that depends on the weather, and a bad season lands on a whole family at once. Many young people here are weighing a job in the city against staying close to home.
When the stress starts, and what it does to study and sleep.
Breathing and grounding to use in the hall, before and during.
Revision planning that is realistic, with sleep and breaks in it.
Where it helps, how parents can support without adding pressure.

No. Even one or two sessions before an exam can give a student tools to use on the day. Earlier is easier, but it is never too late.
Counselling cannot promise marks. It works on the fear and blanking out that stop what you know from reaching the paper.
No. A smartphone with WhatsApp or a video call app is enough.
