Definitely not as stressful and leg shakingly, nail bitingly, fainting in terrifying panic like everyone always says it is.
I felt confident for the test. I couldn’t wait. I sat down, got all of my two black pens, a penic, rubber and ruler, oh and a calculator…
Sat comfortably for three minutes as the exam gaurds storm around taking people’s phones and whatever else and barking the rules and sanctions.
I could even see the faint outlines of a table, the first few questions were visible but backwards and I had the thought I should learn to read backwards.
Oh I was so pumped for the exam!!
Until I opened the paper…
And I saw the first question…
And I did not know the first one mark question.
The FIRST QUESTION!! that knocked me down but I took an educated guess (also wrong guess since everyone at the end conpared results and checked the science textbook)
It wasn’t all bad, the big six marker was on a topic I seriously enjoy and understand. Auxins in plants. Tropisms.
Lamark and Darwin never joined the party which sucked since they were 1/7th of my revision?! Yup.
Are you ready for the best bit? I didn’t know there was a last page until the last minute and all I could do was sigh in dispare.
I had to laugh it off to myself and relax. Hey, it’s just one grade. I don’t even know if I want to go into science… I wanted to drop it ages ago…
So I’m okay with this. Chemistry next. I’m hoping to do better here.
