Is Exam Stress killing you ? Fight it.

In 2006, 5,857 students — or 16 a day — committed suicideacross India due to exam stress, reported the Times of India recently. Some students have discovered other mechanisms todeal with the pressure, like running away from home or simply refusing to appear for exams. If you are a student, there is no need for me to explain what exam stress is. Sleepless nights, troubled thoughts, loss of appetite, rapid pulse, trembling hands - these are typical manifestations of exam fear. Recent research has shown that it affects all the systems of the human body: nervous, immune, cardiovascular, etc. Unfortunately, the negative influence of this phenomenon on the students’ body and their psychology is underestimated nowadays.

"Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Support your answer with a proof."

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry final exam: "Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Support your answer with a proof." Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following: "First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So, we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave.
