Maybe if you had killed a few they may have forgot about the exam. Missed a trick there I feel.
I like the way you think.

I nearly killed about 10 people by leaving the gas on for 10 minutes then turning the gas cooker on.

Good ! People need a bit of salt in their lives.

Nope, not consciously at least. By salt, I meant conflict.

I don't know other part of the world makes you take cooking exams....

Cooking in the US means ramens or popping something in the microwave.

Cooking exams as part of school is ridiculous, unless of course you have cooking as a main part of your curriculum. Sure, cooking is an useful skill IRL, but you don't need lessons to do it.

I never had anything like formal cooking lessons in my life, and heck I live in France.

What other ridiculous lessons do you follow ?

So I did the exam and I thought it went better than I thought. I nearly killed about 10 people by leaving the gas on for 10 minutes then turning the gas cooker on.

Really?  Because I think it's a welcome change to have your pass/fail depend on skills that you'll actually use. Right now in college, I'm hitting up career fairs and employer events whilst juggling the economics essay for my capstone class.  Guess which one has been more useful for a soon-to-be-graduate?

Obviously Microeconomics for RA2.....  Unless you build IRL.

Honestly the best way I found not to get nervous about exams is just not to care about them. I know you can't really not care about something as important but just putting it to the back of my mind and focusing on something else always helps me.
