Why some students have the exam-phobia?
460403
Traditionally, written tests measure a person's knowledge of the subject. This is why students are afraid of tests because their scores determines not just their understanding but their social life. Yes, students are afraid because there are times they do not trust their own abilities. It is actually more than that. They will also think of what other people (parents) might say (social).\n\nPersonally, there are so many ways to measure a student's learning of a subject without inflicting a minor case of exam-phobia.

it does both seperates the weak from the smart so that the weak can be coached seperately \n\nalso parental pressure during exams destroys students lives

Just having a closed-eyes imagination that what they are and what I am? Concertration on existed exeriences and sorting out the phobiatic emotions to deal in personal history in mind gives the way for confidence. This can be a natural way of emotions but many don't get it. There is also a thing that they get it in any other way.

Fear is about not having control. Phobias are irrational fears that are  very powerful and hard to get rid of.

Michelle, some of the responses you're getting may depend on the age and maturity of you and your friends. Many people won't admit to these feelngs because they fear or do not understand them. Others may have been conditioned by their parents or friends to ignore or downplay these feelings. Often, the degree of openness on any given subject is directly related to the fear of embarassment or rejection.

May be they want to have a lot of attention. When someone looks at you fearfully and afraid of you, you have the 'BOSS' feeling and you feel having a greater stature in the public

Plenty of people get nervous, it's probably from fear of finding out a diagnosis, or just a fear of having to have certain tests done. Some people get "White Coat Syndrome". It's when their blood pressure rises when they visit a doctor, when their pressure is otherwise normal.

People get nervous during hard times because of the pressure they put on themselves. Like with a test, people put a lot of pressure on themselves to make sure they know everything they need to know.
