Y'alright?

Four down, six to go

My first two dayser’s over, and I’m feelin’ good my friends!

Maths Paper One was first. Through pride and stubbornness I chose to stick with Higher Level Maths, along with just another 15 students in my year. It went quite well, of course there were the tricky bits that I got horribly stuck on. I managed to keep with my good time-keeping though, getting six questions attempted. I’m just looking to pass maths, as it’ll most likely count as my seventh subject, and I imagine I did indeed pass that paper. With maths it’s very important to know the marking scheme and how it works. For some parts I couldn’t get the correct answer, but the answer is needed for the next bit of the question. What did I do? Make a note that I was making up an answer, and continue one with some number I conjured from thin air. I show I know my methods and get more attempt marks.

Then later there was Geography. Usually I’m quite the Geographer, but then again, usually I feel a lot more prepared than I did last night. So how did it go?

I will merely say that I would like to marry whoever made that paper. It went very well, asking the stuff I had prepared, and I waffled very little, knew my facts. Nice one State Exams Commission, all is forgiven from yesterday!
