First, I think I did better on the test than last time. I could solve the problem in shorten time than before. Also I could gain my confidence while I figure out each questions. Most of all, there was no question that I can not write down anything, and it made me proud of myself.
The biggest thing I did for preparing the test was memorizing all the terms from the sheet. I noticed the importance of words memorizing from last exam. So I wrote down all the terms and it's meaning for a week. I tried my best because explain the term in English is quite different even I know it's meaning in Korean. As I guessed, most of the words came out in very first page. Unlike last time, I filled out all the blanks in my own words.
Last time, I spent almost all the time reading articles which Mr. Still handed out. This time, however, I did not look over the article at all. Instead, I could earn time to solve almost all the problem in the textbook. After I saw the some of the texts in text book printed on the exam sheet, I was on cloud nine. Without concerning a lot, I could go over smoothly.
In spite of I done much better than before, it does not mean my preparation for the test was perfect. I made a terrible mistake. I miss understood the range for the test. I thought the range for last test is excepted for this test and I did not worked on those part. In the above, I said I filled in the blank with self esteem. But actually it was only for what I studied. I spent a lot of time at thinking other terms. I will never make this kind of mistake again.
I have some parts which are improved and some are not. But Thomas Edison once said like this "Failure is but the threshold of success". With this experience, I got a lesson. In next exam, I will prepare more properly and achieve a better grade.
JongJin, I'm glad to hear that you felt so confident! Your high self-esteem is surely the result of your preparation. Good on you. And, you're right, there was no reason to look beyond what we studied in the textbook for this test. To have done so may have been rude on my part. I hope you did something to celebrate your great success on this exam!
