I screwed up my English Module A essay. I forgot the main points I was suppose to raise in one of my paragraphs, got a complete mind blank. Then I wrote my 3rd paragraph where my 2nd paragraph was suppose to go and etc. and I muddle up the whole order of the essay.

I remember in Prelim 3U and Business studies, I crammed for like most of the night and slept for an hour. Went in and did the test while half dead and thought I was screwed. But next term, I got my results back: 3u - 82/84 and Business 84/100 (Not that great but first O.O).

I screwed up my very first Chemistry assessment. Caught up and was first until Trials.

I screwed up my very first Extension 2 Maths assessment. Caught up and was first at the end of the year.

I screwed up my Half yearly Biology assessment. Caught up and was first at the end of the year.

Moral of the story: We all screw up, and we can all catch up.

Not a screw up so much as a random HSC story.

I was doing the IPT HSC while I had a very sneezy cold. Ended up sniffling and sneezing so often that the supervisors gave up giving me tissues and gave me the entire box instead. :D

Something similar happened to my friend who was sitting in front of me.
Last year in maths, he had a massive cold, and a pack of tissues hit him in the head in the middle of an exam (the kleenex 10 pack ones), and we didn't know where it came from
