BOARD EXAM FEVER

Exams are the most tensed situation in every student’s life. It is very important to remember that an examination doesn’t test your memory but your learning. It’s an exam where you can test your aptitude and problem solving skills.A profound statement by Dhanvi Mathur of IX-A….

“The school is abuzz with excitement as the students of X of Shanti Asiatic School gear up for the first board. They are anxious yet happy at the same time as they will be the first batch to bring laurels to the school. They are studying very hard to score well, they are staying back and clearing their doubts and even the teachers are eager to help the students by giving them extra material to revise.”

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration! Our best wishes are with them…
