#I already pass the subject on the raw 42/50 I have thus far... 84% is my lowest total as it stands with internal -

I think the ultimate reassurance for an exam is: “It’s okay to fail”. Not, “You’ll be brilliant” - it perpetuates all the pressure and high expectation that’s ultimately very unhealthy. I know with my track record the “you’ll do great!” approach is a very easy assumption, but when I say I am not ready for a test despite much preparation, I mean I am NOT ready for it. I KNOW I won’t do well, I’m smart enough to figure that out. 

#(no one here btw I was targetting parental figure) #(the only people who have actually told me it's okay to not do well is teachers - because they understood how... - #-effed up I can get about these things) #it's a 50% exam tomorrow... and I wasted far too much time with inefficient study preparation. #and I still... don't know anything. Oh well... Best I can do is try :) #I already pass the subject on the raw 42/50 I have thus far... 84% is my lowest total as it stands with internal - #- assessment... but I will mess up my AT//AR if I don' do well - probably get around an 86 instead of a 93 but I shouldn't care #why do I care so much??
