SMS buddies help 'O' Level students cope with exam stress

ChannelNewsAsia reports that 'O' Level students in Singapore, suffering from examination stress, can now turn to an SMS buddy for some relief.

"This is just one of many e-services organised by trained counsellors to help students beat the exam heat, a nationwide project by a group of professional counsellors to help those taking their "O's".

Students can get tips on exam preparations online at www.students.org.sg/olevel, or sign up for an SMS service to receive help and motivation when they are stressed.

They can also e-mail a team of professional social workers about their problems at care4u@students.org.sg.

About 75 percent of them have signed up for the SMS Broadcast service.
