You are well prepared for a high stakes test, there is no
logical reason to fail yet on the day, under pressure to succeed, you mess it
up. Alternatively, you are a top scorer and you are tasked with taking a crucial
penalty shot. During practice, you have never failed but during the Champions League
match, you drop the ball into the goalie’s lap. These are both examples of
choking under pressure. Do your research to understand this phenomenon better
and write an essay about the problem and how to deal with it.
