JAcob LEe assignment #5

It was about a year ago when I was in my home country, Korea. I was getting ready for my university entering exam, which was called ‘SuNung.’ I had studied more than an year for the test which I was willing to get in a good school. I personally wasn’t that good at math and Korean language, but with English and the science subject I thought I could not get bad score. On the day of the ‘SuNung’ exam I was not scared, but was ready for the challenge. While I was taking the math part of the exam I noticed that I was not able to solve most of the questions. Therefore, I suddenly froze and my head was blanked. I could not think of anything. After, the math exam I did not do well, because of the tough of my math score. After the exam I went home with a heavy shoulder. I graded my math score, and it was horrible. Right that second my dreams were shattered. I did not talk with anybody for about a few days. Moreover, I ignored all the calls that I got. Soon after it was time to apply for schools. However I had a grade that was unrecoverable, so I really did not look carefully into the school. That was my experience; if I had looked more carefully I could have gone to one of the school I wanted which did not require a good grade of math. It could be just who gets depressed with grades, but I do get a lot of stress over grades. My habits change a lot over grades mainly over stress; I eat more and sleep more which makes my fitness drop to the ground. It is hard not to get depressed to grade, but the best way in my opinion is to forget it and do better next time.
