i would be lying if i said i wasn't happy with my results.
heres my L1R5 break down.
english-66 (B3)
i'm actually very happy with this.i'm not one who actually scores that well for english, so this is very satisfactory.
e-maths-71 (A2)
mrs roman really scared me when she was so confident that i had failed. this was definitely the paper i am most happy of.
literature-70 (A2)
i was very lucky to get an A for this. honestly, i thought that i would have done enough to get an A1, i guess i was slightly over-confident there. i need to re-look at my so-called "guarenteed" A1 subject.
chinese-74 (A2)
for me, this was the greatest pity. i missed A1 by a single mark. AGAIN. sigh. i remember not bringing in my dictionary to the compo exam. in the end, i minused 4 marks for wrong words. wow. from a 39/50 composition, the best i've ever did, to a 35. probably coulda done better for listening too.
Combined Humans-69 (B3)
i'm okay with this score, except for the fact that i missed A2 by a single mark. AGAIN. i guess i have to just study that bit harder to attain the mark which i so desperately need.
Chemistry-53 (C6)
this was a letdown. i remember expecting at least a B4. it wasn't overconfidence this time, just that, i remember having so many answers similar to other people's answers. i really really need to pull up chemistry.its the one which would determine how high or low my L1R5 would be.
other subjects - A-maths(53,C6);MEP(55,C5);Biology(44,E8)
heh. i failed bio after all. told ya. after all, the only topic which i actually read up on was drugs.
so.. 18 points. where would that get me?
i'm gonna study.
i believe i could get around 10-13 points for prelims and around 8-11 points for the actual o-levels. come to think about it, if EVERYONE studies hard, motivate each other and pick each other up, we ALL could and WOULD get 8-11 points for o-levels. who cares about the scholars. they have a criteria to meet. if they don't get 6 points, they're screwed. as in seriously.
i must admit i'm happy i'm not going con-camp. to those who are going, please do not think i'm gloating. ive been to con-camp before, and i know the feeling of knowing that you are going.like when you first get your results, its like.
crap. i failed 2.
than, you'd spend the whole day thinkin' about it. i've been there. i know how it feels. it wasn't nice going into the stupid lecture theatre. but it'd really help. honestly, if i got around 23-25 points, i'd definitely rather go to the camp rather than escape the temporary hardship like what some people are doing.
sigh.
its so hard to make time nowadays.
