10 Stages of Stressing Over Exams

School is almost over so you know what that means, final exams are coming. That means you have to start studying, and you are going to be in a ton of stress. Stress on getting a good grade and stress on knowing all the material.

It will be constant stress.

Here are the levels of stress that you may go through during exam time.

1. Two week before the exam

Your not that stressed, you have plenty of time to study and get all of your ducks in a row. This is where you start getting your things together, like flashcard and getting your study guide ready to study.

2. A week and a half till the exam

This point you are a little stressed. You only have a week and a half left. This is when you need to buckle down and really start to study.



3. A week till the exam

You are almost 100 stressed. You feel like you will not know anything at all on the test. You start to stay up till 2 in the morning and make sure you know everything that is on the test.



4.Three days till the exam

You are 98 stressed at this time. You are worried you will not do well or you will ace the exam. You need to ace the exam to get an A in the class. You will either do well on the exam or you will not do so well on the exam.



5.The day before the exam

You are 100 percent stressed, but not quite there yet. You still have a lot of studying to do before the big day. You pull an all nighter not just staying up till 2 in the morning.


6.The morning of the exam

This is the point you are still 100 percent stressed. You get your last minute studying in before you go into the classroom.


7.Five minutes till the exam

You are still 100 percent stressed. This is when you get your pencils, erasers, paper, and calculator, if you need one ready to start the exam.


8.The teacher has entered the room

The teacher is starting to hand out the exam and you are a little stressed because of the teacher just handed out the test, and you write your name and date on the top of the paper, then you start the final exam.




9. Your almost done with the exam

You are not that stressed anymore because you know everything that is on the test. You feel really solid on the work that you have done on the exam. You turn it into the teacher and you feel like you did really well on it.



10. Just after the exam

You are 100 percent stressed again because you want to see your grade and it wont be up online till later that day or the next day. You know get worried that you did not do so well on the exam.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating.
