The purpose of this theoretical article is to investigate the factors that make exams feel intimidating to university students rather than motivating them to study willingly. The goal of the research is to comprehend the causes of this occurrence and offer suggestions for how to deal with it. "A thorough evaluation of the prior research on the subject was undertaken for this study, with an emphasis on studies that looked at the connection between assessment and student motivation" (Crooks, 1988, p. 438). The focus on grades and rankings can foster a culture of rivalry that undermines the natural drive to study. One classic experiment conducted by Edward Deci and Richard Ryan in the 1970s, known as the "Candle Problem," demonstrated that external rewards (such as grades) can actually decrease intrinsic motivation for tasks that require creative problem-solving. Also, there is often a lack of feedback and support for students, especially those who struggle, which can further exacerbate feelings of inadequacy. In conclusion, the results of this study imply that in order to increase student motivation and involvement, evaluation procedures need to be reassessed and revised.
