The mental pressure on students do not only arise from academic factors. Non academic factors such as how parents deal with upcoming exams of their children is also a major issue.
With CBSE, ICSE and state board exams starting soon or already in the process, this is a trying time for students. The immense competition with the large number of students sitting for these qualification exams causes the mental pressure on students to skyrocket.
While the academic pressure itself at this time is likely to be immense, both for students as well as parents, stories where non-academic factors are found be much more anxiety provoking than the exams themselves are not uncommon. What makes things worse at such times is the tendency of family members and peers to tell the stressed student to 'ignore everything else and focus on studies'.
To put it simply, while there is a hardly a student who isn't under a great deal of stress with regard to the exams, they're a passing a worry for most students. However, for those students who may already be in a vulnerable state, a high pressure situation such as the exams can be the final straw.
