I am on my final three papers.
Sat P2 last sitting and failed, though i was sure it was a fail. I found it hard to digest so much information. So i decided to come back to P2 when i was more comfortable.
I have two exams booked this sitting. Done one, it felt fine, but then i had a major wobble reading what others submitted.
I have one more to sit this time and frankly lack of sleep and self doubt are really making me consider just not turning out. I feel like i have forgotten everything even though its frankly my day job!
Logically i cant pass if i dont appear, but then also the risk of two fails in one sitting will be hard to manage.
I would be interested to hear how others deal with self doubt and reduced confidence? Is there anyone out there who has some nice positives to share?
I cant be the only one suffering out there today….
That was an impressive mark there, well done 🙂
I went, the paper was ok, i will however just have to wait and see now. I do struggle with self confidence though. I wouldnt mind however i am a mature student, a senior member of staff in my organisation and feel like i should honestly know better!
Its the thrill of the pass that keeps me going, wobble or not…that pass is always bliss.
All the best with your journey.
I really don’t like reading the comments after the exam because it seriously has me doubting myself on what I did. I don’t know how students are able to remember their calculations and answers to the T.
I have to agree. I read the post exam threads and most of the time think that i was at another exam, maybe not at an exam at all but possibly in a pub somewhere!! I also struggle to remember what i wrote let alone recreate it!
I did P7 on the Monday and it felt ok. As the days have gone by though i have significantly less confidence that i might have just scrapped a pass.
I then did P5 on the Wednesday and this one felt fine even though i was seriously thinking i wouldnt turn up because i just didnt feel happy. I mean i felt i could answer the questions which goes against what some are saying in the postmortem. There are lots of people saying the paper was confusing, poorly written etc. I didnt feel that at all.
So now were a week after the even and as much as i felt happy afterwards, i now feel nothing but fear!
I want to pass, like we all do, but i understand why i dont pass, however its the confidence then the pride that take a beating when its not good news.
@Ruth… I wrote P7 as well but the thing with me is i spent too much time on question 1 and then was scraping to attempt the other questions. With 15 minutes left I still had one of my optional papers which I hadnt attempted. I am praying that I got at least 50 as this is my last exam.
