Overwhelmed with course work, assignments, and other pressures, we students are faced with the grave issue of insufficient preparation time for the upcoming SES exam. The reason this is so personal to us is simple: we don’t want to fail. Our academic performance is important to us, and we believe it should be given due attention and support.

Though we recognize the need for assessments and examinations, we are pleading for the SES exam to be rescheduled to allow more time to study and prepare properly. Pondering the fact that high levels of stress can negatively affect student performance (American Psychological Association), the current exam schedule doesn't provide conducive conditions for success.

The postponement of the exam isn't a call to shirk our responsibility, but rather a bid to better ensure success. We aren't asking for an easy way out; we're requesting enough time to thoroughly understand and grasp the course content. Academic success is linked to adequate preparation time, as stated by the Education Corner.

We need your support to appeal to the administration concerning this important matter. Please sign this petition to help us ask the responsible authorities to reschedule the SES Exam. Together, we can make a difference.
