Q2:
(a) Is it very stressful being a student in Singapore? Explain.
(b) What are some problems you face as a student which adds to your stress level?
A1:
(a)It is quite stressful as a student in Singapore as we have many subject to study and many tests are given to us. Our parents and teachers will also have high hopes of us getting good result, we do not want to let our parents down so we study very hard to et their targets. Singapore student likes to compare their marks with people which make them more stress. For example, if you lose to your friends, you wil tried to study hard to get a better result.In order to get better job in future, we must study extremely hard. All these causes the result of our stress.
(b)The problems I faced was when the exams and tests are very near, i will feel very stress as i wanted to score well for all my subject and not do it badly. Sometimes, the topic of the subject is already very confused but the teacher did more confusion to it by skipping a lot of steps that make me more stress as if the question appeared in exam, i will be stuck at the question and at the same time lose marks for it. Now that my school and CCA end late, i need to stay up late at night to study and wake up early in the morning which make me lesser time to relax but more stress.
