Tackling
test tension
Divay Mangla
Test
time is a stressful period for both the youngsters and their
parents. The anxiety does not end with the test—be it the
boards, an interview or competitive exam. Some are able to face
the situation. But some fail to meet the expectations set by
themselves or others and fall prey to mental agony. To a certain
extent, stress is necessary as it enhances mental activity and
helps the student in gearing up.

Launching a new book? Releasing a new product? If you're smart,
then you'll first hire a public relations firm. Right from
collecting finances to getting those snobbish journalists to write
about it, public relations can do practically anything to make
your product get noticed. It's the glitz and glamour that get
noticed first, the substance comes much later.
