I could feel the panic rising...
But there was nothing i could do about it. I told myself to breathe deeply, because if i got any more stressed than i already was i wasn't going to be able to function at all.
This afternoon i had the worst test of my life. Ever. I have a sneaking suspicion that i, along with half of the class, will have failed. And the thing that pisses me off the most was that i actually studied for this test - something that i NEVER bother with.
The test was for my GERM332 paper, which is the most advanced german paper that we have at uni. It was mainly on grammar, with a few short comprehension type questions. The grammar section was so nasty, i couldn't believe it. I could hear little noises of disbelief from around the rest of the classroom as well. The section on turning verbs, adjectives etc into nouns was okay(ish). The next section i didnt even understand! Anyway the rest of the grammar was pretty crap, and i was so panicked by the time i got to the reading comprehension that i think i did quite badly, despite it not being too hard, but i was just running out of time, and totally thrown by how hard the first section had been. I could have done it so much better.
I feel grumpy now. I dont think we even spent much time in class on the stuff that was in the test.
It's only worth 10%, but hey - i need every bit of 10% that i can get for this paper.
