I used to have before when I was at collage, but now I'm working so It's rarely to have.
For me having exams makes me too worried and stressful, however, I like it for I feel the challenge with myself and others.

Yes, at the end of semester I have exams. And I don’t like it, because it’s a little bit stressful for me. I’d like to know, how do you prepare for exams? Can you share with your experience?

Exams are stressful for me too, but if I am prepared before it will decrease my stress. What I am doing for preparation that make me confident and easy to give the exams is study on daily based and also more and more study of the same topic. As more I study one topic as much more I can remember that.
