thoughts on promos results
Tuesday, 6 October 2015 || 9:38 pm
((i am supposed to be doing my op slides and memorising my op script and making my props for op presentation right now but no)) so i guess i'll do a little bit of self reflection for promos results before i start drowning myself in pw for the next two months.
so yesterday (monday 5/10/15) we went through our promos scripts, like every single subject, and on the weekend before that we went on a short getaway to batam, it was really good and necessary i would say, to prepare myself for this day. i was honestly so scared and nervous and i dreaded this day since last week, especially since i wasn't even sure if i would pass any subject. HAHAH. and so my results are as such:
subject | promos grade | MYE grade
GP (E) (E)
Math (C) (D)
Econs (D) (E)
History (D) (U)
Lit (C) (E)
i still do not know my final promotional status, because it's 60% promos 20% MYE 20% CAs kinda thing so. but i was very very surprised when i got my scripts back for econs, history, math and gp because i thought i would fail those subjects. and never would i have thought that i would actually clear pass those subjects (well, except gp).
econs. going for weekly consultations, going through chunks of contents and still getting confused all the time, i thought i would fail econs. especially since my close friends like walia and xintien have econs tuition, i know that i had to work extra hard firstly because econs was an entirely new subject to me, and secondly because i had no tuition. after the paper i was just like meh. but last week when the teachers reviewed the paper and i realised that there were so many main points that i did not include, i felt like i was literally dead for econs. points like coe, erp, allocative inefficiency, productive inefficiency and all, were absent in my essay LOL. so i didn't expect much at all. and a clear pass WAS a surprise to me. ms wong even said that me and my sister did not bad, and that she was happy with our class' performance, guess it was an improvement from midyears HAHA.
history. THIS LITERALLY SHOCKED ME. for ih i didn't even know if i was answering the question or not, and i felt like i was just bombing unnecessary facts, probably with inaccurate information too LOL. and for seahist i just bombed all the facts with definite inaccurate dates HAHA and i really didn't expect myself to pass promos especially since i failed history soooo badly for mid years and my content is really really weak and stuff. also, during mtp teacher actually talked about my history.......... so i was just like okay let's see how it goes. and when i saw a clear pass for both my ih and seahist i was like WHAT?! my total marks was 52 and the highest was 58 i was only 6 marks away from the top yo HAHAHA i was honestly so so happy when i learnt that i had a clear past for history so YAY!! and not too far from the top, :-)
lit. so improved by 2 grades. woah. lit. woah. i didn't see that coming. i thought i was just gonna pass by a little bit because i wrote soooo much for promos and our teachers actually emphasised before that less is better. and with all the consultation essays that i did, which were a 12/13 over 25 i thought i was just gonna get an E. so i was really scared. but last week, mr jason actually nodded his head at me and joey and asked if we ate some pills before lit paper and i'm like UM WHAT. but yes, got 15 for paper 1 unseen even though it the question was the more difficult question kinda thingy which didn't score very well and yes, i was shocked. genuinely shocked. but hey, a clear pass for lit omg!!
math. i felt that this paper was difficult and i honestly thought i was gonna fail this paper. even though we always had consultation with mr max and i always had questions and problems till the point mr max can't stand me and also said that i was rusty (HAHA) but oh well. mr max raised his eyebrows when he gave me the paper and i was like what and the first thing i looked out for was a pass. i would be satisfied with just an E. and then i saw that it was actually a clear pass, i was happy. even though my ridiculously answered last question was wrong. BLA. i passed the hardest math paper in my whole life guys. :')
gp. the only subject which i did not manage to clearly pass. i was just one mark away! i thought i would fail gp because my essay was out of point and the compre was really hard. but i guess it's okay E-ing gp, even though it is not enough for an arts students. gonna have a broader perspectives date soon!! oh yeah i just wanna give a shout out to xintien whose gp have improved since mid years! i know it's not easy for you, but i'm happy for you txt if you see this!!!!
overall i guess i am quite a bit kinda maybe satisfied with my promos results. i know that it is not very very good or significant, and that i probably could have done better. but given that i slacked a lot during the september holidays and stuff i guess it's pretty alright. now i just have to wait for my final promos results to come out and we'll see how it goes.....
hoping for the best but prepared for the worst.
till next time x
(i'll update my blog about batam soon. HOPEFULLY.)
