So when I was in middle school, I had just transferred and was the new kid. It was about a few months and it was time to take exams, I wasn’t confident in anything at all since the curriculum was way different from my last school, I didn’t get anything at all, everything confused me. Finally my worst subject, history. I dreaded taking that class and everything was like gibberish to me, the words seemed so basic but put together it was too advanced for me, the history teacher before the exams told us to do some things and not do some things on the essay. I had no idea what he was talking about but I didn’t want to ask since it seemed like the whole entire class got it. On the exam I was lucky enough to get a couple right on the multiple choice and I remember doing everything he said not to do on the essay. It’s not like I did it on purpose, I only did what I was used to. 

I landed with a 40%, it was my first exam.
