Impact of the Indian Examination System on Student Stress: A Pressing Issue

Author(s) Mr. Hemant Yadav, Dr. Rajeshwari Garg
Country India
Abstract The Indian examination system, deeply rooted in the nation's educational framework, has undergone significant changes over time, transitioning from traditional Gurukul practices to a more structured and examination-centric model. This system, particularly characterized by high-stakes tests such as board exams and competitive entrance tests, has emerged as a major source of stress for students. Factors contributing to this stress include societal expectations, parental pressure, rote learning, and the rigid structure of assessments. The emphasis on academic performance and the resultant competition has fostered an environment where students face substantial emotional, psychological, and physical strain, adversely impacting their well-being and academic success. This article explores the sources of stress within the Indian examination system, the student experiences related to this stress, and the broader implications for their mental health. Despite reforms introduced through the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the examination framework still prioritizes academic results over holistic development, necessitating systemic changes to reduce stress and promote healthier learning environments.
