Examination

National Examination
I think the hardest thing that I have to do
national examination when I was in Vocational hight school. it is something
that does not make sense because the results of our study for three years
specify within three days. but what could I did? I have to followed the rules
in force in the country. it is something thrilling for me.
In the first day, exactly at eight o’clock
am. All of student have ready to doing
the exam. The subjects in the first test was Indonesian language. My mind was
pre-occupied with my countless number of panic. In addition to that, it was
also my first exam test, so I had zero idea what will happen. The
not-so-friendly aura of our proctor also did no help. I was frightened the
whole time. At the start of the test, while our was reading the instructions
out loud, I was busy fidgeting in my seat, trying to quickly recall what I
studied. If only I knew that it only worsens my already-worsening anxiety. As a
result, most of my answers were uncertain, even though I clearly remember
studying them beforehand. I was so frustrated! Little did I know that it was
only the start of an unforgettable nightmare.
The second day, was examination of English
language. I was enjoying the English part because I was confident with almost all
of my answers when in the middle of answering, our proctor commanded us to stop
and proceed to the next part of the test. I looked at my answer sheet and my
eyes widened at how much I have skipped—almost half of it was left blank. How
worse could that moment be? But alas, I can’t do anything about it. So much as
I hate to, I helplessly flipped the pages onto the next part, which is about
reading comprehension. Just when I thought that I was doing fine with the rest
of the exam, the proctor distributed the papers for the essay. I was pretty
confident, not to brag or anything, but I have always enjoyed writing. But I
think I’m going to save that for another essay. To cut to the chase, of all the
time in the world, it was during the test that I was struck with a writer’s
block. Not a single word was coming out of my mind. Needless to say, I ended up
with two paragraphs filled with nonsense. I really hated myself.
The third day, was a test of mathematics. At
the time I have to be calm down and meticulous and have doing the test well,
because that was the last day I took the national exam and I have to be
optimistic and confident, I should believe in my own abilities, I began to read
about each one and started to answered, it was not as hard as I thought to answered,
I remembered the formula mathematical which I have learned before, the proctor
approached me and asked me “why you looked spirit?” I answered “ because the
questions very easy Sir.” the proctor responded well, “do it right and fix your
time as well as possible.” finally I
could finish the math test well and on time.
After that moment I realized, actually the
hardest thing I have to face is fear, if I do something with an optimistic and
confident then the results would be good.But if I panic and nervous the result
will not be good altough I have been studying hard like when the first and
second day I did the test of national examination, but in the third day I did
the test calm down and confidently so, all of question felt easier. I will get
it done properly. indeed be a valuable experience for me. And I was very
grateful when the result of national examination announced I graduated. truly
that was a miracle.
