Oh Exam three, how I really wanna cry after taking you. This one was by far the hardest one so far! I am not really sure why this one was so hard for me to do. I have a couple of ideas. Idea number one is maybe because I could have studied a little more to get a better grade. Ideas number two is that because I am not doing so well on the rest of exams it is putting a lot of pressure on me to do well on these last exams and that makes my nerves at an all time high. The last idea I have is that I didn’t work out the practice exam as much as would’ve liked to before I took the exam. I did the best on Exam 3 because I worked out the practice exam a few times beforehand which I did not do on this exam unfortunately. Now that I am typing all of these ideas out, I whole heartily believe that it was a combination of all three of them that gave me the grade that I got. For the future I will definitely try to work EXTRA hard on those things to preform well. We only have 1 more exam left, the final…. I’m freaking out! I started studying almost immediately after I took this exam and it wasnt a lot of time, maybe a few days and I am realizing how much I need to study. It’s a ton! The only thing that I really wish we had in this class was a study guide for the final exam. Just a paper explaining what topics we have to study and what kind of questions we will have on the final. I really enjoy doing these because it gives me an opportunity to really release my stress on paper and start new. On a different note, something that I am really struggling with this semester is comparison. If you’re a student, you know what I mean. I feel like everywhere in college there is so much comparison of accomplishments throughout the students. That sucks! We all are on different paths and it takes other people longer to do things but what matters is that we’re all trying! Just a little reminder, you’re doing amazing sweetie! Okay now back to studying for this final! 🙂 Thank you for reading, chat with you later about how stuDYING is going.
Until next time,
