today for my test, i knew that mcqs were 40 mins and essays were 1 hour. but i don't know why somehow my brain just programmed itself to think mcqs were 1 hour, which means 9-10. so i did my mcqs rather carefully, checking the time routinely and made sure i was on track. after doing about 25 questions, the clock read 925am so means i thought i had 35 mins to finish 15 qns. so i breathed easier and continued doing. at 942am, the invigilator started going around collecting the omr forms and i was like ohhhh... myyy....... goodnesss....... what theee............. this feeling of impending doom swept over me and i could feel like adrenaline kicking up my heart rate and this weird feeling came over my hands. i still had 5 questions or so left. i read thru each question for like 20 seconds and couldn't digest it and in the end just like anyhow choose. i can't even remember what the last 5 questions were. honestly. it was that bad. haha. the invigilator came over when i was still doing the last 2 mcqs and she was nice and allowed me to finish. i was worried i ate into my essay time but in the end i had more than enough time for the essays. sucks that i screwed the essays part a bit but oh well it's time to leave the past behind and look to my big test tmr. the big and final one before i say bye to obstetrics and gynaecology. definitely very glad to do so.
