When the teacher announces to the class, 'you get your test results back today' or 'I have your test results', your heart generally jumps up into your throat - and you hold your breath as if you're underwater. I did that for about five minutes today as she walked around the class telling people their results. She came up to me and I stopped breathing, I only started to breathe again after I new I passed. But knowing if you pass or fail means nothing to me. If you gave it your all and tried your very hardest, it's always a pass in my book, even if you failed. I have a few friends who tried and did give it their all and didn't pass, they passed to me.
Teachers make the tests hard for the reason because 'The Department of Education' makes the rules. Hand up if you disagree with agreeing to those rules? (Me.)
Tests are made to be challenging and to make you think and study, but the way the get marked, personally sometimes I think it's pretty stupid. Passing or failing doesn't matter. If you pay attention in class and know how to do it, why test you? Everybody forgets under pressure, it's not their fault, it's half the teachers and half the departments. Just keep that in mind the next time you fail or pass a test.
