The board exam is like the summit of a individuals study life. Not being able to pass would be a big setback to your future and. Your goals would be stalled for a while. You need to study really hard for you to take the board exam only once and not do it again. It's a pretty big endeavor your facing right now. It culminates everything your ever worked and studied for. Good luck with your exams.

Hi friend, good to know you are working as well as studying in the same time. All the best for your exam. In this modern days most of the students are working while studying. Now education is very expensive and all the courses need a great fees. It is really hard to pay for the huge fee. Even though banks are offering loans for our education, some times the education fee is very much high compared with the bank loans as well as we are in need to pay some unexpected fees and buy some costly books for our studies. So students are in need to do some part time or full time work to compensate the loss and most of the students are continuing their studies in corresponding manner and concentrate in work to earn more. This kind of working students must organize their time and allocate time for both work and studies. If you give more importance to your work, it will spoil your studies and vice verse. So give equal importance to both of them. During exam times give more importance to the studies and focus your full concentration with it. Take leave from your job and give your uttermost to your studies. Better to learn your lessons on the same day of teaching, it will reduce your burden in the deadline. One of my friend is working in Government office and continuing his education to get promotions in his job. He organized his time both his studies and work and succeed in both of the fields. Coming year is his final year for his studies after completing his exam and receiving his degree certificate he planned to apply for promotion. He balanced his time for both work and studies and never allow both of them coincide with each other. With his organized plan he got good name in both his work and studies. Spend your free time for studies and don't waste your precious time in unwanted outing and hangouts if you are studying while working. An organized person have the ability to shine in all his activities. Be organized and achieve a lot in your life. Be wise and spend your precious time in a good manner to get success in your life

Thanks for posting this discussion. Well glad to know that this is your first discussion. Well i can understand that u are facing a lot of troubles to handle so many things around u and with exams on your head u are feeling more pressurized also. I think u should chill and calm yourself first and then do time management on how to distribute your overall schedule for each one of them so that u can manage everything with ease and without any tensions. What say?

Your job is important and your exam too, u didn t mention anything about a relationship. Use most of the time now, as u said you have nothing to do, and when u ll get very busy at work u should use the time off work and make the most of it by learning as much as u can. In life u have to do sacrifices to obtain your goals. But i recogn u are gonna have a nice future if your graduation means a better job or the job you always wanted. Good luck.

yeah .. i forgot .. i'm also maintaining a relationship .. we've been together for three years but you know, he's very supportive and is willing to sacrifice as well .. i actually love my job .. this is what i want .. i'm only taking the board for my family and for possible promotions in the future.. i'm not driven .. yeah .. i know .. and that appears to be another problem .. :(
