Test-anxiety and Students: Test-anxiety of 10th Class Students in Kurnool District

Test anxiety is a combination of perceived physiological over-arousal, feelings of worry and dread, self-depreciating thoughts, tension, and somatic symptoms that occur during test situations. It is a physiological condition in which people experience extreme stress, anxiety, and discomfort during and/or before taking a test. These responses can drastically hinder an individual's ability to perform well and negatively affects their social emotional and behavioural development and feelings about themselves and school. Test anxiety feeds on the unknown, the more you know about the test, and the more you know about your own anxieties and how to conquer them, the less test anxiety can control you.
