we need to use the present perfect continuous, where we will be taking the verb “to
have” in present, the verb “to be” past participle and the -ing conjugation of the verbs.

I have been studying for the exam all the year!

In this sentence, we must identify the different parts to understand the form of this
tense.
I = subject.
have = auxiliary verb “have” conjugated.
been = past participle of verb “to be”.
studying = verb in -ing.
for the exam all the year! = the period of time not specified (where you know you
started something in the past but it has effect on the present).
