My IB exams



It’s impossible that I don’t feel nervous. It was my first IB exams since this is the only 1-year IB course that I have. I didn’t review too much the nights before the exam started since I already know what should I do and I know I cannot be even better at a few nights. Time passed too fast that I still remembered the first day I got to this class and filling the cards to tell something about myself. I changed a lot in studying literature and performance this year.

For the first exam, I feel like I didn’t do it that well. The night before I didn’t rest well, maybe due to the weather or something else. It was cold in the dinning hall. I shouldn’t be anxious since we have been practice for the whole year, but I was still nervous. I felt that my hands were sweat. I kept writing and then I feel that time wasn’t so enough. I thought two hours were a lot, but it weren’t. I messed up with the topic a little bit but I feel like the test graders can understand what I was saying and it might hurt a little bit, but overall, it should be fine.

For the second exam, I feel a lot better. I didn’t review too much as well, and the only thing I did is to recite my poem for several times to make sure I can remember them. The day was even colder than the first exam. When the exam started, I started writing. I knew that time might not be enough so that I looked at the clocks for many times. I spent about 15 minutes on outline and writing the poems down. When I wrote the poem down, I decided to choose the second question, which is about the significance of some single words. I underlined the words that I wanted to analyze. However, when I noticed that I only have 40 minutes to analyze my second poet and to write the conclusion, I felt bad. Instead of writing with my mind, I decided to write it really fast. I feel like it’s detailed but I need to concern about my grammar a little bit. I wish the grading teachers were art teachers J. But overall, I finished on time and I think I did a good job on the second exam.


To conclude, I can’t believe that everything is done. Time flies! I wish I’m ready to do my finally project right now, and I wish would have a good rest of the year.
