comprehension. Comprehension is my strongest point. I suck at essay writing, coz I can't memorise quotes.

half the time you can practically make up the quote, as long as the generally jist of it is faithful to the text. the teacher's have a time limit for marking. its not like theyre gonna check.

hmm I didn't know they had true/false in ancient history.
i thought there was no more multiple choice in ancient history, modern history and english subjects.

here were my thoughts on each exam:

English - super hard. zomg. I thought I was going to fail, lol... I kicked everyone's ass but one person
Maths - super good. I thought I was going to kick everyone's ass but I had my ass kicked by two people.
Chemistry - got my ass kicked. was sooo hard. I didn't study
Religion: fucking easy. Had stupid questions like Outline one principle event in Muhammad's life. I made up half the exam. I kicked the ass of everyone but 2 people
Economics yet to receive back.. but I think I kicked everyone's ass in that (save three people perhaps)

So as u can see... in total, I think I had my ass kicked by around 10 people (save chemistry, lol)
but not for long.. coz I will kick everyone's ass next term :p ohh yesss

yeah.. i did that in my English exam and ended up with 70%... but comprehension brought me up to 80%.. constituting a ranking of 1st overall.
haha and everyone thought that this guy would be kicking my ass. They were wrong, indeed. :p

I love getting exam results back, particularly in the subjects such as English, Maths, Ancient History, Economics, religion, etc. To me, getting exam results back is all about beating other people. I love it :shy:

How do u reckon you did in your exams?

Hence the login name ninetypercent. :p (just joking!)

I like getting results back even if they are bad because I can have a good laugh about how stupid I can be at times, and that motivates me to beat other people in the subjects I am good at or just to work harder in general..

I've got really bad news for u all. Prelims dont count for Squat. And they certaintly arent an indicator for the HSC. So quit obsessing and get on with ur lives.
