The toughest time has passed. Now I feel a little relaxed. One of my biggest challenge in May is done so I have one less thing to care. For now, I do not really want to think about how the exam went. The exam was not realllly hard as I worried. Questions were pretty much like we have prepared for this entire year so we knew how to write and to format it. The only problem was the time. As Ms. Guarino had been telling us, I thought I would have more than enough time to outline and to write in a full structure. However, it was not really sufficient, although I somehow finished it on time. I think it was because of a nervousness due to the somewhat overwhelming fact that this is the actual test. I had a hard time to organize my thoughts and put them in a right order. I felt like I answered questions in an unorganized way that my ideas were scattered around. Other people's stories made me feel worried too. I only wrote three and four pages with drawing, but they said that they wrote six or even more. This makes me feel very uncomfortable and nervous. Nonetheless, I am satisfied with the fact that I tried my best to answer the questions.
It was a good experience before upcoming AP test and a good preparation for next year's IB test. As a junior, I think this experience will help me when I become a senior and take another IB test. I can remind me of this experience as I have already gone through this and thus I am familiar with the atmosphere. The first time can never be perfect. If I could learn from this, it is good enough in my opinion. Fortunately, I learned from this and got the sense of IB exam.
