Exams are stressful

Speaking about exams and stress. Exams are stressful...well ...usually anyway. I try and avoid them now because I'm old and I don't need to prove myself (= show other people that I am successful) anymore.

However, there are many of you... probably most of you, who still have exams in your life (= as part your ongoing experience) and for many youths in Myanmar, they are already thinking and preparing for the exams next March.

Exams are 'big' (= informal: important) everywhere. We have come to believe that they somehow measure a person's value or worth and many parents put the children under pressure to perform well in exams.

Watch (and read) the video giving some good advice (not just for children, but for all of us) about exam stress.
