Hahaha! Some students used to call me cold regarding the results! When school I've never been so worried about results (Abnormal, na?😆). Actually I don't think much about them. As I used to be the first or the second! And knowing the result couldn't give me some emotions or it's my problem that when I take the highest mark I don't feel that I'm extremely happy or can't do anything to show this. Even when I don't like a mark, I just stop thinking about what irritates me like what happened yesterday (I got a result for some exam; Disappointing one. 27 out of 30) Anyways, I'm at university now, second level. Now at university I'm more concerned about the results!
Aha! A topper amongst us!! LOL!!!😆 Cold? Heehee... Scoring low and high are according to the way you fare! If I scored high, i was happy and proud of the way I wrote the paper. If I scored low then, I knew what my weak points are, and wouldn't let the 'low' word affect me and my smile. Yet for me school's marks were more important than the entrance exams! Like a herd, people used to go crazy for entrance examinations and their scores! I couldn't care less for that!😆 It's like abandoning your school, from where you get the passing certificate, and the only allowance to sit for an examination and also admission, and just concentrating on the external exams for admissions in universities/colleges, which definitely is of no use if you don't pass out from school!🤣 I mean what would be the point in studying for entrances, when you're not even passing out?😆
Why do you call 27 out of 30, disappointing one?😕 Is it because you were sure of getting full marks and had written it well?
Me in college, First Year. 😃 hahahaha... you bet! For now you can't take it any lighter! :P
At the exams days my tempreture goes high out of nervousness and concern :( ( This happenes with me whenever I'm nervous or worried a bout anything)
Missed the school days, I used to study only if i have an exam, in fact, till now. But the assignments and presentations are unbearable.
Oh you can't be serious! We used to do the same thing in school! You know, only study when you have an exam the next or a few days later, while go on about your life, passing time the rest of the days! 😉
Hmm... I'm still in my first semester, so I'm still learning what all happens in college! 😛
Back to the exam, the first question was define the following, which had 3 items: tragedy according to Arostitle, the tragic hero and peripety.( 18 marks)
The second is In the light of your study to Oedipus king, do you think Sophocles (the writer) should be banished from the Republic (Plato's book)? Why? (12 marks)
Could see your reaction😆
Well, yes, because you haven't mentioned what you actually have for literary exams and short stories! :P
The tragic Hero, is one I, myself, defined in my boards and preliminary exams in school! That's one question to handle with care! Back then we were studying Macbeth, so Macbeth was a Tragic Hero, whose position at first in the Scotland Army, was the among the highest and then how he fell from the very top, because of the manipulation and all the evil deeds he did and then again in the last his pride rising back, before he is killed by Macduff! From a Warrior to a Murderer/Criminal/Traitor, and then back to being a Warrior, after confessing about his evil deeds, only to meet the fate, what was destined for him!
We haven't read about Aristotle and Plato! Though we know a bit about those old men!😆
Nice to know more about you and your study years😊
Ahh.. It's nice to speak about school life!
