In the fast-paced world of education, pressure can often feel overwhelming, especially for students facing high-stakes exams. Recently, a Jordanian student took to social media to express her frustrations about the pressures surrounding Tawjihi, Jordan’s national secondary school examination. With aspirations of achieving a score between 97 and 99 but currently sitting at 94, she shared her struggles with stress and anxiety, resonating with many who understand the weight of academic expectations.<\/p>\n

The Reality of Tawjihi<\/h2>\n

\"FindingTawjihi is more than just an exam; it’s a pivotal moment that determines a student’s future. In Jordan, achieving a high score is often viewed as essential for university admission, leading to a culture where academic performance is paramount. This pressure can become suffocating, leaving students feeling as though their worth is tied to their grades.<\/p>\n

A Voice for Change
\n\"A<\/h2>\n

When the student vented about her struggles online, she inadvertently sparked a movement. Her honesty about the emotional toll of these pressures struck a chord with many, prompting a wave of support from the Jordanian community. In the comments, many criticized the education system that perpetuates this stress, highlighting how students are often forced to transition directly from high school to university without adequate support or guidance. The sentiment was clear: the pressure to excel academically should not come at the cost of mental well-being.<\/p>\n

Moving Towards Change<\/h2>\n

As conversations about the pressures of Tawjihi and the broader education system continue, it\u2019s crucial to advocate for changes that prioritize student well-being. This includes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Encouraging a Healthy Balance<\/strong>: Educators and parents should promote a well-rounded approach to education that values mental health alongside academic achievement.<\/li>\n
  2. Providing Support Systems<\/strong>: Schools can implement counseling services and peer support programs to help students navigate their stressors.<\/li>\n
  3. Rethinking University Admission Criteria<\/strong>: Universities could explore alternative admission criteria that consider a broader range of student achievements and experiences, reducing the singular focus on Tawjihi scores.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The story of this Jordanian student illustrates not only the challenges faced by many in the education system but also the incredible power of community support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the fast-paced world of education, pressure can often feel overwhelming, especially for students facing high-stakes exams.
