Candidates must have a clear and peace mind during the exam period. Conducting many tutions can be a huge tease for their mental health as well as they'll feel jumbled when tutors teach everything again and again. As I'm a candidate it's more accurate to me too

Students need the additinal tuition because of dysfunctional teachers in schools. Then, instead of holding the inept distrustful adults who are involved in the examination process accountable, the government bans the students from getting the extra help. This system is designed to fail students and limit their future. No wonder parents and children are fed up.
