Like any other exam here at this school, theres a refractory freakout period. As usual the day before and the day of the exam you have people flying questions for biology. How do you do this? Do you understand this? Do you need to know this for tomorrow/today? The tension prior to the exam automatically rises.
Just like anything else that occurs at this school, there is a diffusion of stress as depicted by my friend's picture here.
Yes, one person evidently starts freaking out causing the start of a chain reaction in adjacent students. Simply, it takes one student to do so and start the spontaneous reaction.

So here I am now less than three hours till the exam where I have a hallway filled with students who are freaking out for the exam. Firstly, it's to late to cram anything more now - so just go enjoy your life and do something else... make use of your time. Secondly, you are the source of stress for other people - I personally don't mind if you have one or two questions to build your confidence before the exam but if you're going to use it as an excuse to freak out, seriously STFU.
What do I opt to do in the situations like these? Today, I'm watching documentaries and educating myself in the events of the world. Currently I'm watching Japan's Killer Quake presented by NOVA, and before that I spent an hour discovering the stupidity of the "junk shot" along with other failed attempts to seal the BP oil spill (Deepwater Disaster: The Untold Story - BBC).
Many things are happening in the world, and all everyone freaking out is about three paper exam totaling to a 4 hours and 45 mins. Come on, try your best on the exam and after that, it belongs to the past. Anyway, I must continue watching my documentary and learn about the devastation of the 9.0 earthquake as well as the resulting tsunami that caused devastation for hundreds of thousands.
To end off, stop freaking out - go away.
