Exams...

I’ve just gotten home from exams...my 2nd paper @ Program Bersepadu Sekolah Sihat. This paper was slightly easier but I mixed-up my points and facts. All jumbled up. However...I think I can get at least a B for tis paper. HOPEFULLY.

Am mentally exhausted now. The jam on the bridge was swelling up as I was driving home. Perhaps a Thursday evening, many office workers decided to leave early.

Earlier I was pretty nervous as I was leading up to the exam hall. My frens ensured me that I would do fine but I wasn’t so sure.

It was frustrating that I couldn’t remember anything. I’ve always had a hard time studying for exams because I need to be in the right environment.
I can’t study at home because there are just too many distractions. I can’t study at my mum's place because it’s too quiet..(no young children around to create the screams..)

I need something with a little bit of background noise but not loud enough to be a distraction.

The best place for me was my desk at work in my library after school hours. The fan was on so there was enough noise. Once in a while, a few pupils would pop up knocking at my door seeking permission to read some thing.
Then birds would chirp by the window to keep me alert.

Usually, I managed to get a few chapters studied over here but not enough to make me feel confident that I would do well on the exam.


During the exams just now...., I skipped a few questions because I was trying to answer the question that I knew the answers well. That way, I can worry about the other questions later.

Within the first hour, I had already gone through the whole exam and answered all of the questions that I knew to be correct. After that, I simply went back and attempted to answer the remaining questions.

Part A was fairly easy if one has an idea which were basically a straight to the point questions (10 questions). I didn't know how to answer some of them but I think I managed to perform pretty well in this section.


However Part B and C were tougher as it involved synthesis and analysis type of questioning.
I attempted to read in between the lines to look for clues but to no avail. In the end, I just write whatever that came into my mind. The examiner would have a great time dishing out the points from my writings. hahaha ..am hoping to get some compassionate marks..!

After flipping back and forth the paper a few times, I managed to answer all the required question within the stipulated time of 3 hours.


I’m relieved that I’m all done with this paper but I still have another two to go next week @ Pendidikan Moral Tahun 2
Listening and Speaking and Teaching of Listening and Speaking

Hope to be able to read my modules over the weekends..!
