On December 25, 2023, the teacher of the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics Mukasheva Gulbarshyn Darynkyzy conducted a curatorial hour on the topic “Conversation about preparing the group for the session” with students of group 2508 of the specialty “General Medicine”.
On December 26, the winter session begins for the second year. It’s always a test. Preparing for an exam is associated with great stress on the body: intense mental activity, increased static load due to prolonged forced posture, extreme limitation of motor activity, disruption of rest and sleep patterns, and emotional experiences. It is impossible to change the pre-examination and examination situation (reduce the intensity of preparation, change the exam procedure, etc.), but it is possible to influence the most important aspect – the personality of the graduate. The purpose of this supervisory hour is to reduce stress during the examination period among students through awareness of their behavior and expansion of their behavioral repertoire.
After discussing this topic, students were given information about tips and tricks for preventing exam stress.
