Tests and exams
Is a pass a pass? Really? I can not help but wonder. This week I have received the results for 2 exams and an OU assignment. Can safely say I passed all 3. However I skimmed one for sure, I barely passed. I can take full responsibility for that as my mark reflected my interest and commitment to the assignment; I put in half the effort I am lucky I passed. I would be more pissed if I had put in 100%.
But is skimming the pass good enough? I am sure I am not alone in thinking there are people who drive that passed their driving test that should not be on the road or near a car. I am sure there are Doctors that passed their medical exams yet seemingly full short when doing their job. And Lawyers those passed their Barr exam and do more harm than good.
So, I ask is as pass a pass? What if, the point in allowing mistakes could then be the most critical mistakes to be made?
I can not help but wonder about this. Is it a failed system that I have felt the advantages of this time? I don’t like the idea that I could just skim the pass rate.
I should be feeling elated that I passed all 3 things that I set out to achieve this year. I have felt happy and smiled and laughed about my successes. I have felt proud of my self so why now do I doubt it all.
I am menstrual! Fucking periods, I swear I am being punished for not experiencing any kind of child birth pain or labour. Lol
Anyway, back on the books tomorrow and making an extra effort to not skim the grade. Trying not to dwell on stupid shit and be positive. Yoga and meditation are needed for me tonight. I wonder how many other people have tried that and find it a good way to get centred. That’s all for now....
