The first Major exam we took Thursday, I was super nervous and my anxiety got really bad I don’t do well on exams.  I had done all the reading twice, I was thinking over and over about the material and filled pages with notes from my own responses as well as from class. I couldn’t have been more prepared for the exam. Having a short answer test makes you study even harder because you have to have a more bulk response and think about the questions that are given to you. The vocabulary was very simple, we went over them several times in class so they should of got stuck in your head. They got stuck in my head, I felt like I was dreaming about them all night making sentences for them.

The hardest part about the whole exam, I knew the material I study for hours the past two nights, I just couldn’t think how to word some of the things. Basically I was second guessing myself, I do that quite a lot. I felt like I put a lot vague in my responses, I couldn’t think about a good answer. Sometimes I mark out two answer that I know wouldn't be it, so I can have fifty percent chance. I had maybe two questions I couldn’t figure out, I didn’t know the difference between denotative and connotative but instead of leaving it blank I gave it a shot and answered the question. When you answer a question instead of leaving it blank you still have a chance of getting it right, you never know if you are wrong. Another question I didn’t know is the one about bias, which I should of knew that one we went over the material several times in class. He didn’t give us a hard test at all, he even gave us a study guide too look over.
