Hi, friends, I feel so bad now because of the exam in this morning. Before the exam, I study hard to prepare it. However, the result is bad. I made some stupid mistakes, so stupid. In addition, I didn't get the real meaning the problems in the exam. Friends, do you have the similar experience? You spent time to prepare something, but the result is not as good as you expect. Thanks for sharing...

I think we've all felt like that from time to time. I've gone into tests during my days in school and I thought I'd studied well enough and then everything looked like a foreign language! But I've also had times when I studied, and felt really good about the test, but then when I got the test back...it was full of small mistakes that brought my scores way down! This especially happens in math classes. Think of it this way, Have you ever gone into a test..where maybe you even forgot about the exam, or it was a surprise quiz, and you didn't think you were prepared, and you actually did really well on it anyway? I guess that in the long run it all works out even!

I do have similar experiences. I can cram & cram for an exam. But when the time comes, I panic. I go totally blank and make some of the dumbest mistakes. What I have found that helps is that I made arrangements with the professors for a quiet room and no time limit on the exams. That helped alot. Seemed to take the pressure off. Not all professors wanted to do this though. On another note. Is that an American Eskimo in your picture? I have a 6 year old male!
