Promos results

kays..promos results are out..not really very very happy with it but quite decent la..though could have done better

Biology:- B(69%) to be honest, this was the most satisfying of all my subjects..getting a B was my aim during promos revision..thought i could have gotten an A after the paper but still, a high B, one which is on the brinks of an A , is pretty good job too :)

Chemistry:- B (62%)..kay, the grade is satisfying in the way that i have improved since my CTs..worked really really hard for this test..but to be honest, these marks in no way do justice to the effort that i have put in during revision..guess i really let myself down during the paper itself..not exactly disappointed but not exactly happy either..an A shouldnt be that much out of reach

Maths:- B (63%)..okay, so maybe i should have expected this given that i spent very little time on it, other than Chinese and GP, but still, a B isnt really that fantastic for me..thought i could scrap a borderline A even though i didnt do my 10 marks..but then, it just didnt happen..H3 maths is my dream..will it poof just like that??

Econs:- D (50%)okay, technically its an E, given that i scored 48.4%..but then, they rounded by to 49% and then, gave me one more mark to make me feel good about myself, thus the 50%..thought i could have nailed a high C or a low B with my case study, which was decent, but then, my second essay epic failed..8/25 is definitely not a mark i want to get again..okay, there was improvement, but more can be done..

GP:- D (50.5%)i was absolutely damn hopeful after the test..fine, the compre wasnt that easy, but i thought i might get a good grade for my essay..somewhere along the lines of 32 to 35..when i got it back, it was more along the lines of 27..which isnt really good..okay, next, i hope that my compre can save me..then, i saw that i got 23.5 for it..which just nudges me over the 50 mark..granted, this isnt an easy paper (quite some ppl did badly for it), but a very very narrow pass isnt really that great either..improvement needed (ALOT)

MT:- A (74%)..okay, i was really really shocked when i saw my paper..didnt expect to get so high for this test..i thought i might nail a high B but definitely not an A..well, i just hope that this doesnt turn out to be like prelims last year, where i scored a high A2 and ended up with a B4...

PW:- okay, im really really shitting my pants for this OP..i have faith in my oratorical abilities until like two weeks ago during dry run when may wong gave me a 3/6 for fluency..i dunt want to be one of the few who get a B for pw..i have really really tried very hard to make myself sound better and more comprehensible..awareness of audience can be practised, group marks can be worked hard for, Q&A can be mugged but fluency is just whether you have it, or not..i really hope that all my practices pay off..

k, im only saying this here cuz its unlikely that my group members will read this..but i am really really fortunate to have this team of ppl as my group mates..they have really helped me alot during this journey, from GPP to WR and now to OP, where they are trying their best to help me score for fluency..i am really really happy that i have them..so ya, if i was abit harsh or slack earlier in the year, sorry team..

Kays, now to H3..i really want to take H3..its not just it looks better on my report card/cert, but also, i feel that i am ready and prepared to take up studies beyond the conventional classroom..i really hope that i can take a H3 next year..

GP : Expected-B

If lucky-A

Econs: Expected - D or C

If lucky - B

Chem: Expected - B or A

If lucky - A

Maths: Expected - B/A

Lucky- A

Bio (hmm, its really hard to tell for bio..sometimes, i feel that i have done well but when i get back, its some shitty grade)

Expected- B

Lucky- A

Kay, still need to work abit harder to get the ultimate 5As..it can be done

promos

okay..promos was HORRIBLE..cant believe i screwed up that much..GP was okay, to be honest, im expecting at least a B for GP..econs was fine except for the first essay and case study..hope i can scrap a C..chemistry was fine..very fine..until that question on dissociation where i totally screwed up my ICE table..still hope that i can scrap an A..maths was, to be frank, pathetic by any standards..didnt manage to finish the paper, didnt do the questions well..forgot everything about sampling..hope to scrap an A still..but i think that the chances are quite low

Its time to perform..time to stop screwing up..i have worked very hard for these exams and it ain't fair for me to just throw away all my hard work cuz i wasnt at my best during the exams..its really not worth it..
