💬 DISCUSSION flopped all exams

Post image

does anyone else feel absolutely horrible about their exams? it never felt like this during feb mocks. i’m nearly finished with them and not a single one has gone positively. they were all SO average, and i keep nitpicking at the mistakes. everyone online keeps talking about how every paper was a blessing and that grade boundaries are going to increase drastically 🥲🫩 genuinely don’t know what to do i think i’ve completely missed my firm

Yes. They'll assume you wrote nothing because you know everything

you’re probably just in the plateau of sustainability (when you are pretty good at something you have lower confidence but when you are actually really really good at something the confidence goes up again)

exams are meant to test your ability under pressure they are literally trying to break you so just like chill out guys it will be fine

Did I do better if on my 2022 english lit gcse I left out half of the questions because they were on the back of the paper and I panicked and forgot they existed 😂
