Why Do Teachers Freak Out Over Exams?

Exams. EOCs. EOGs. Finals. Whatever you call them, they're a part of your educational career. And, sure, no one likes them. But, they're nothing compared to how stressed out teachers get before they give these tests. Every teacher is somehow convinced that they you are going to fail their final. They plead with you to come to review sessions, and assign massive packets for homework. Nevermind that you did great the whole year during their class. Nevermind that you've aced all the practice tests they've given you. In the teachers's minds, you are going to fail their exam. Period. Does this type of pressure help? No, of course not. It only makes the students waay more stressed out. So, teachers, please chill out. They're our problem, not your's.
