AK RANA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a student? What a strange question it is. We became students from the first day we came to this world; but that\u2019s not what I am talking about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s the student that you become when you start preparing for that one exam that you have to clear, either for a job or for college admissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By the way, when we moved from one class to another at that time, we all felt that stress and the happiness when exams end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The real deal starts from 11<sup>th<\/sup> and 12<sup>th<\/sup> class and, in this article, I will talk about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These kids are given choices to pick a career and the subjects. When it comes to the subjects, its either maths or bio or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here maths is considered equivalent to engineering and bio to doctor. This is the current trend that we are seeing these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This 15\u201317-year-old little human has to decide his whole life while deciding a career which is 90% already decided by the parents. You are just going to approve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These kids are considered responsible enough to think about their life but they become children when they take any decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are their decisions always wrong? Are parents always, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we are to debate on it, I don\u2019t think anybody will win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because it\u2019s like this is also true and that is also a thing to be considered!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\">A BIG CHANGE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you come in 11<sup>th<\/sup> or 12<sup>th<\/sup> and join a coaching institute, it\u2019s a bubbly feeling. Everything is new, amazing, exciting and thrilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoying those 90 minutes lectures sometimes, at other times looking at clock for last 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A fully motivated kid with 1000% energy, goes through monthly test, see the rank and wonder?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best of their classes from all over the India come there and find themselves so behind\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not that much hard as he\/she can try again for next month to improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They may or may not be able to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In these 2-3 months, they forget to see around, but when they do so; a lot many things have already changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their access to TV, Mobile all other sorts of entertainment is limited and their time is recorded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What was thrilling over the months becomes a cage, but it\u2019s still okay, you keep moving ahead because there is no turning back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background\">SOMETHING IS LEAVING YOU BEHIND<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When syllabus is within grasp, we are able to follow it. We can walk or run, follow the rules and guidelines but still try to keep a hold of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The thing is when the end of the year is near, syllabus starts doubling. You start running a marathon every day, but you got only 24 hours a day and clock never rest or give us special treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMorning, afternoon, evening, night and morning again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Days-weeks go by, what scares us the most are those tests that keep coming with the result and the ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you see yourself slowly falling behind, slowly losing that grip, it becomes harder and harder to reach at it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There comes a time when the student decides to give up on those rules, time tables, exams and studies; and turn to see the world around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>World looks beautiful and bright while his room darker and darker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s where we are lost!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now the same question that was like a sad thing, becomes a topic of laughter \u2013 How are your studies going?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know no one seriously, no one will know that feeling that hides behind your smile and that pit that is too deep to come out from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every day you keep going down in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies cannot be done without a calm and composed mind and with the pressure of exams, performance, lagging syllabus, we become unable to take a single step further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-1024x788.png\" alt=\"being a student\nhalleys clinic\" class=\"wp-image-158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-1024x788.png 1024w, https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-768x591.png 768w, https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-1536x1181.png 1536w, https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-2048x1575.png 2048w, https:\/\/halleysclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-3-600x461.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-luminous-dusk-gradient-background has-background\">SO, WHAT\u2019S THE PLAN?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Till now, I just shared a common feeling that majority of us felt, sometimes here and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t be writing this if I had no strategy to come out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why listen carefully\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Check out, which<strong> next test<\/strong> is waiting for you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Write down its syllabus, the whole syllabus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Don\u2019t forget the <strong>current syllabus<\/strong>, and just try to finish reading it once in class itself.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can allot some 2 hours for finishing the rest at room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will advise you to do the maximum of it at and during classroom itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t master it, just finish exercises, questions and go through theory that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At your room, start with the syllabus and start with that <strong>hardest topic<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes!
