Enjoying Exams

12 Week Online Bootcamp for StudentsStarting 21 April 2020!

For a large majority of people the word ‘Exams’ immediately brings up feelings of stress, anxiety, or competition. For some just the thought of getting through exams feels like a survival mission. Yet, I want you to know that this need not be your reality with exams. If you would like to change your approach towards examinations then this 12 week online program has been designed to help you do just that.

Weekly Topic Coverage

Week 1: Opening up to the Flow State
Week 2: Befriending Stress
Week 3: Cultivating Positive Emotions
Week 4: Navigating the Tricks and Traps of Goal Setting
Week 5: Overcoming the Fear of Failure & Building Resilience
Week 6: Letting go of Judgements related to Exams
Week 7: Managing your Attention
Week 8: Dealing with Expectations of Others
Week 9: Coping with Conformity and Peer Pressure
Week 10: Outcreating Comparison and Competition
Week 11: Involving your body
Week 12: Designing Your Own Rituals

For enrolling in this bootcamp it does not matter what your subject of study is and it does not matter whether you are currently a ‘topper’ or someone who is struggling to pass the minimum bar. The only criterion for enrolment is that you are willing to explore if preparing and answering exams can actually be a fun thing for you – something you enjoy.

I am not promising a fantasy experience where there won’t be hard work, difficulty or challenges – rather I am inviting you to a possibility where you actually start to enjoy the hard work, the difficulties and the challenges – the way you probably enjoy them when you go on a mountain trek.

I am not promising an experience bereft of stress. Rather I am inviting you to a possibility where you learn to work with an optimum level of stress – so that it turns you on and makes you alert but not overpower or paralyze you.

I am not promising you an experience where there is an insurance against failure and disappointment. Rather I am inviting you to a possibility where you become the most resilient version of yourself and you march into an examination hall with the spirit of a sportsman – willing to give it your best and enjoy the experience; knowing fully well that success or victory is never ever fully guaranteed (and nor would it be fun if it were so :-)!)

This bootcamp will be held online through Zoom with a two-way video interface. Zoom is a very easy to use online platform for webinars. Each session will last for an hour and it will be a live session (unlike my existing programs on edX, Swayam, or the IIMBx platform where the participants access pre-recorded videos). I will be facilitating students as well as answering questions live during each session. The recordings of the session will be shared with you so that if you miss attending a session for some reason you can still make up by watching the recording.

Students who have attended the bootcamp block of 12 weeks will be eligible to sign up for an ongoing weekly group coaching program at an additional cost. This option is open only to those who complete the entire 12 week bootcamp. The group coaching program is designed as an ongoing support system for students. Each week students will have an opportunity to get clarifications and inputs based on what has worked and what has not worked for them during the past week and to set intentions and plans in place for upcoming weeks.
