Last semester, Geography was my worst subject, but my favourite, in terms of content. I scored a sad 62% in that exam, also by far my lowest.

 

A few days ago, I was personally pulled into an empty classroom by my Geography teacher, shut the door, and said that I got the top mark in the recent Geography exam. 93%. The second highest mark was 76%. What the hell. I didn't even feel like I did great in that exam. I'm really confused and happy at the same time. I also got 69% in Economics, but those are the only two I've gotten back. Like last exams, I'll put here how I think I did in each exam and compare them against my real marks, which I'll get by next week I hope.

 

English - I'm feeling good about this exam, I wrote a creative piece in the writing section, which was short but the plot was amazing. Last semester, I went for an analytical essay in the writing section, the 'safe' option, and did badly, so I'm testing my creative writing abilities before year 12. The rest of the exam had some challenging questions, and I hope I did them justice. Might be a long shot but I'm guessing 75%+.

 

Maths - I did the worst in this, I'm sure of it. Non-calculator section I'm quite sure I failed, as most people say they did, but calculator section was much better. I hate to say this, but 50-60% :(

 

Physics - This exam I found quite easy, at least compared to the last exam. The teachers making the exam probably realised that a 52% average last time wasn't so great and dumbed it down for us this time. Another long shot, but 70%+!

 

Business Management - Holy moly. I don't even know what to say. The Business exam was incredibly short and easy. Some people finished 1.5 hours before the real finishing time (it was supposed to take 2.5 hours). At the end of it, I was writing the essay with my left hand to kill time. I still finished about 40 minutes early. I double and triple checked everything, including correcting spelling and grammar mistakes (quite a lot, oops). I do admit that I didn't know exact answers to every question but I did the best I could. 20 minutes left. Zzz. 80%+ please.

Interesting that the non-calc exam is harder for you. In my school the non-calc/non-reference exam is super easy and the calc/reference exam is super hard.

 

Neway congrats on Geography, though that's a pretty strange way of telling you :P

The IB non-calc exam was actually as difficult for me as the calc exam iirc. It kinda depends on your school I suppose :P

That's what it was like last time, the non-calc was super easy and the calc was bad. Weird.

It makes sense tbh, non-calc is all about remembering simple concepts whilst calc is applying the more tricky ones.
