The Night Before the Big Exam: How to Prepare Without Stress
Pasant Elzaitony The night before the Thanaweya Amma exam is one of the most critical moments in a student's academic journey. It's a time when anxiety and responsibility collide, and the mind races against the clock. However, succeeding in navigating this night doesn't require a miracle—just some organization and calm. First, don't try to review the entire syllabus in one night. Effective revision means focusing on key points and notes you've taken during your studies, not diving into every detail. Dedicate time to revising rules, formulas, or areas you previously found challenging, but avoid overexertion. Second, maintain your emotional composure. Deep breathing or listening to soft music for a few minutes can help clear your mind and ease anxiety. Avoid negative discussions or excessive worrying with friends or family. Third, ensure you get proper sleep. Staying up too late weakens focus and tires the mind. It's best to finish revising before midnight and get at least six hours of sleep. Fourth, prepare your exam essentials early: your ID card, pens, ruler, and calculator (if needed). Don't risk a stressful morning due to forgotten items. Finally, remember that the exam is just a milestone, not the end of the road. Confidence and balanced effort are the keys to success. Give yourself hope, and move toward your goal with steady steps. read more 15 Ludicrous Cosplay Costumes That Will Blow You Away Watch...

Thanaweya Amma: A High School Exam, A Lifetime of Trauma
Still having nightmares about your Thanaweya Amma Arabic exam from 2007? You're not alone. Even a decade after graduating, you might still find yourself looping back into those dark exam memories, especially now, as your feed floods with updates and videos of current Thanaweya Amma students deep in the pressure cooker. It's that familiar time of year again: anxiety, emotional burnout, and a storm of expectations, all wrapped in what should've been a simple academic milestone. We've seen it before, and we'll keep seeing it. The Thanaweya Amma syndrome, if we're being honest. No matter how many times the system changes — new formats, subjects, or curricula — the anxiety around this one academic year remains the same. Year after year, the same exhausting question arises: why can't this just be a normal high school exam like everywhere else in the world? The way this year is perceived like a monster overlooking your entire future is the root of so much unspoken damage. It's stereotyped as the year that defines who you'll become by sixty as if a couple of test papers can sum up your life potential. Add to that the overwhelming parental pressure, the tense conversations with relatives, and the constant media frenzy, making it all feel like a national state of emergency instead of just a school exam. When planes are shown carrying exam papers like they're state secrets, and cameras broadcast every classroom as if it's a military operation, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary test. And it never has been. But maybe it could be. Maybe it should be. This year can pass like any other if we stop assigning it the impossible task of determining someone's worth or future success. It's draining watching generation after generation lose joy in their academic years, only to carry that fear and pressure well into adulthood. We owe it to the next generation to rethink this system, or at least how much weight we give to it. Maybe it's time we put it down. Do you agree?

Capgemini: disconnect between Egyptian youth's climate concerns and green job readiness
FILE - Group of Thanaweya Amma students revising before the exam Cairo – May 22, 2025: A new global report by the Capgemini Research Institute and UNICEF's Generation Unlimited highlights a concerning gap between the optimism of Egyptian youth regarding climate action and their readiness to pursue green careers. While 71% of young Egyptians believe that developing green skills will open up new career opportunities and 63% remain hopeful that climate change can still be addressed, only 24% feel equipped with the necessary green skills to succeed in today's workforce. The findings also point to a significant disconnect between the climate concerns of Egyptian youth and their preparedness for green jobs. Despite 70% expressing worry about the future impact of climate change, and 37% showing interest in pursuing a green job, the lack of confidence in their skills highlights a critical gap in climate preparedness and employability. The report, titled Youth Perspectives on Climate: Preparing for a Sustainable Future, explores the views of 16–24-year-olds worldwide on climate anxiety, green career prospects, and the role of education, business, and government in empowering youth. Across the board, young people are eager to take part in climate action, but many lack the technical competencies required to enter green careers. Globally, six in ten youth see green skills as a gateway to better jobs, but just 44% believe they currently have those skills. The situation is even more challenging in certain regions of the Global South, where access to green education and training is more limited. The report also highlights a rural-urban divide, with youth in urban and suburban areas reporting higher concern and greater access to green opportunities than those in rural communities. Despite growing eco-anxiety — with 70% of youth worldwide fearing the effects of climate change on their futures — optimism remains. Most young people believe there is still time to solve the crisis, and over half are interested in aligning their careers with environmental values. Commenting on the report's findings, Sarika Naik, Group Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer at Capgemini, stated 'We need to help young people turn their passion into impact by investing in green skills. This report shows how critical it is that business, governments, and education leaders work together to bridge the skills gap, empower youth voices, and create pathways to meaningful green careers.' Dr. Kevin Frey, CEO of Generation Unlimited at UNICEF, added 'Green Rising, with its ecosystem of public and private sector partners, is supporting young people with the skills and opportunities they need to take climate action, start green companies, access green jobs and power green solutions.' The report calls for urgent action to integrate green education into national curricula, expand access to training, and align employment strategies with climate goals. It recommends stronger partnerships between the public and private sectors to co-develop green career pathways and to embed youth leadership into climate policy and corporate sustainability strategies.

Egypt Thanaweya Amma exams to start 15 June - Society
Minister of Education and Technical Education Mohamed Abdel-Latif announced Tuesday that high school final exams, known locally as Thanaweya Amma, will begin on 15 June and run through 10 July. The schedule applies to all specialized schools, including science and technology (STEM) institutions and schools for the visually impaired. In recent years, Egypt has introduced several adjustments to the forms of Thanaweya Amma exams, focusing more on multiple-choice questions (MCQs) over essay questions. The exam reforms are part of Egypt's broader effort to transition from a memorization-based education system to one focused on comprehension. Thanaweya Amma exams, taken in grade 12, are crucial for parents and students as they determine university admissions based on their scores. Egypt will introduce the Egyptian Baccalaureate Certificate as of the next academic year, replacing the decades-old Thanaweya Amma system. The new system will be phased in, starting with students entering their first year of secondary education (10th grade). This is the second time the secondary education system has been amended; the first was a comprehensive restructuring plan for the Thanaweya Amma system, unveiled in August 2024.
