PREAMBLE

Most students adopt a failure strategy by choice.They disregard all suggestions about study and exam techniques and only start thinking about the task on hand just a few weeks or days to the exams.For the short period they have left they adopt the usual routine-either looking for 'odu/expo' or staying up late cramming a few intangibles and irrelevancies for the exam.They then catch a few hours of fitful sleep getting up at the last minute to rush to their schools or exam centres many times arriving with little or nothing in their heads.They then race through the question papers or become giraffes or camels with neck pains in the hall while trying to copy other students they regard as good or better.In the exam hall,it is usually a battle of hide and seek with non-conniving invigilators for the usual dose of expo.

What many students fail to understand is that the mountain they see in preparing for exams are actually mole hills.They forget that taking an exam is like putting up a show on a stage!.To a stage performerthe appropriate response is to get out on the stage and despite stomach butterflies let his or her fear mobilize a good performance.There is nothing wrong in being apprehensive about an exam cos grades to some extent get to determine his future path.The goal should therefore be to direct their energies towards exam-taking responses or a series of steps that can make them see exams as molehills or stepping stones.These steps as listed by CYRIL GBEME with a few modifications here and there made bu EDUPEDIA shall be presented below under 24 summarised steps
