Got back my Baisc Finance paper today. Got 55.5/60. It was a bit of a mixed feeling when I got back my result. Felt happy that it was an A grade. But at the same time I felt that I could have done better and got 59/60. Well... I could have gotten 59/60 if I had read the question properly for the last question. Had 3.5 marks deducted due to one careless working that made the rest of the workings after it wrong also. So my long structured question mistake is worth
3.5 marks!!! When I saw how my marks flew away so easily my heart began to ache a bit. The other 1 mark that I confirm lose was the MCQ part, the 1st question which I anyhow guess the answer and got it wrong.
After my lesson end, I just so wanted to talk to somebody about it (Just felt I wanted to tell someone about it so I can just get it off my chest). But my handphone wasn't with me - I forgot to bring it with me to school today. So I just sat at the bus there sulking over that 3.5 marks I lost due to just one stupid mistake I made.
Finally when I came home, first thing I did was to go to my room to see my handphone - 8 missed calls and 6 sms. Considered not bad. Was expecting slightly more than that cos I was suppose to meet Eunice and Iris today but because I didn't had my hp with me I couldn't contact them to ask where they were and they couldn't reach me either. Funny thing was that Eunice and me went to almost all the same places that we thought we could find each other, but we never met... Maybe it's because we're just not fated to meet today.
After reading all my sms and seeing my missed calls, I quickly sms an apology sms to Iris and called Eunice to apologize to her personally. Then after ending my call with Eunice I called Misrah. Told her about how I felt about my results etc then she say she also same like me, miss by 1 or 2 marks like that to get the top score due to her careless mistake. *Sigh* Careless mistake can sometimes be very costly like my case... So close to getting the full marks but yet its out of my reach. But since sulking won't get me anywhere, I'm trying to accept the fact that no ammendments can be made to correct what I did wrong just like my ITECH, what's done is done, careless mistake have been made and I've to accept the fact. Now must plan ahead to work hard for my projects and quizzes in order to make up for the marks I lost due to my own carelessness.
However if I can get this kind of marks for my insurance m9 exam, I'll be over the moon for sure! To pass the m9 insurance 125 MCQ question I must get a min of 70% to pass. And the multiple choices being more or less the same, it can get really difficult to get the right answer. Therefore when I pass (which means I've to study really hard) i'll confirm give myself a fabulous treat. But when I'll take my m9 again, I'm not sure yet. Saving up for both the Akido (if I want to join) and my m9 exam isn't going to be an easy task. Need to start feeding my bank.
~I Thank God for the Good and not so good results~~-Strive for the Good to be even better and the work on the not so good to be as good as the good-~
