Mocks over!!!!!

Hey All!
It has been ages since i last blogged...
Newayz, to summarise the events of the past month, I'd have to say that nothing particularly interesting or memorable happened, except for the A-level Ball(which by the way, seems like a long-lost memory...will post about that soon)But I had mocks for AS the whole of last week, and it ended today!

Here's a brief overview:

Maths: Ok, hoped we could have the begun the exams with something besides maths... The pure maths paper was nasty. Midway through the paper, I just felt like running away and signing up for AUSMAT, seriously! By the end of the paper, I knew that my only hope for an A was to try and do better for my Statistics. Fortunately, the Stats paper was slightly friendlier. Looked throught the paper and figured it was quite do-able. But knowing me, I have great tendency to make careless mistakes, mostly because I tend to rely on my calculator too much! Like I can work out 7+5=12 mentally but I still check the answer with my calculator! I don't know why this is happening to me, even Mr. Alagarajah says I have lost a lot of confidence in my work. The reason behind this is still a mystery. I'll let you know when Mr. Ala figures out! hehe...so anyways, I was extra meticulous with my Statistics paper, frantically recalculating every single value I ended up with. I think i calculated 7x8 about 5 times until I was satisfied that the answer was 56 (it is 56 right?? sorry, its the end of exams..hehe) Lucky for me, I didn't make many mistakes for that paper, but my chances of getting an A are indeed very low.
Ok, it's not too bad, its only one subject. Can still make up for it in 3 more subjects!

Moving on to Chemistry: I think of all the papers I sat for, this was the subject for which my whining and omplaining after the exam was a bare minimum. Well, I take that as a good sign. I hope I do well for Chemistry. All in all, the paper was fair and quite balanced, and I thank Mr. Chong very much for not discouraging me in my Mocks like all the other lecturers did. Whether they meant to discourage me, I don't know, but they discouraged me all the same and that is what matters in the end. Mr. Chong is my favourite lecturer, and if there was any reason for me to do well in his paper, it is because he worked a great deal to ensure that we were prepared for the paper, and I want to show him that I am taking his subject seriously. If I don't get the results.....we'll..get to that later...

Biology: The mock paper was by far the worst I have ever done for Biology. When I entered the room and glanced at the paper, I already told myself to get ready for a C. After I left the room, it was down to a D. The Multiple Choice Paper sucked, there was no way to eliminate some of answers for some of the questions. So for most of the questions, I was torn between two choices, and two minutes before the exam ended, I took my chances and bantai-ed one of the answers. And my luck as always NEVER lets me down (sarcasm, in case you did not get it..hehe)
Structure Paper: I have absolutely no comment....I'll just let the marks speak for themselves.

Physics: My last paper...again, I hope it had ended with another paper. I do not think the questions were exceptionally tough, it ws just that i had very little time to complete all the questions. I was rushing to answer two questions at the end of the paper, and at that point, my head just stopped working. I knew I had reached the end of my tether. I had lost a total of 17 marks in that paper, which means I've already lost all my chances for an A. And to think about how the MCQ and practicals went!

It was been a terrible last week. Anyways, I just wish I would do reasonable well, so that I have chances to pull up and identify my weaknesses and try and do well for the actual exam.
I was actually on the verge of crying this afternoon after the physics paper. I really needed to talk to someone. I had worked my ass off for that paper, and I think I would have done the same if I hadn't studied. I wanted to call mom but then i realised that I had no credit! Wanted to just cry to Anitha, but she was leaving for Pyramid. But never mind, I'll just ontinue to work and see how it goes with the real exam!

Take care all!
Bye
