Exams after Christmas break? by Josh Carter

I believe that it is better for Upper School exams to be after Christmas break because by having exams after over two weeks of break, we can take full advantage the break to study for the upcoming exams. Many individuals found themselves bored over the holidays, so by studying, one can get rid of his/her boredom and be productive by studying at the same time. Also, studying isn’t as stressful over the break because students typically aren’t as busy as they are during an average school week. Therefore, everyone is able to study without feeling any pressure. If exams were before Christmas, there would be less time available to study ahead of time, while having exams after Christmas is better because one is able to study more ahead of time.
