I was really hoping to score as well as I did in my previous test, however I ended up rather disappointed with myself. i started studying about a week before the test, however with my results, I do not think I studied correctly. Despite this set back, I will still continue to try my best and strive for attaining better results in the end of year exams.
Term 2
Test: My score: 78%
Class Average: 73%

I was very happy when I received my results this term! This A1 proves that if I put my mind to scoring well in my tests and focus, I will be able to achieve an A1! I hope to maintain this standard and score well in my subsequent tests.

This term i definitely did not do as well as I should have. I had a very tough time studying for the term test as it was during my competition period. Regardless, I very very disappointed upon receiving my results. Nevertheless, I will try my best for my term 2 test and strive to make an improvement (at least A2).

Reflections
In the past 3 terms, even though I did not get any Cs in any of the tests, I feel that I am under-performing. Excluding term 3, all of my test grades are below the class average. This is probably because I did not study properly for those tests, unlike the term 3 test, which I prepared 2 weeks in advance for. In future, I will always try to prepare early for tests, especially the upcoming final year exam, which is extremely important.
In the first 2 terms, I realised that even when I tried my best to finish the paper, I would always be short of time, as I would often spend a lot of time on the MCQ section. Therefore, when it came to the open-ended section, I did not have time to complete that section. In order to correct this, I tried to spend less time on the MCQ section so that I could have more time later on.
One of the reasons I did well for the term 3 test was because the paper was relatively easy. Even though I got an A1, my score was just slightly above the class average. But, on the bright side, there is an improvement between my term 1 and 2 test results and my term 3 test results. I will try to improve further in the End of year exams.
Other than my test performance, I feel that I have done well in terms of ACE points and oral participation points. I always try my best to pay attention during class and participate when ever possible. Also, I do enjoy doing ACE projects as they are not part of the syllabus, therefore I can expand my knowledge, not just learn those topics part of the syllabus, but other interesting things for my general knowledge as well.
