Hello my dear friends who hate math and anything related to complicated numbers. If you like math and anything related to complicated numbers, please do not feel offended :))
Today, I survived the penultimate math examination. Yes. That too pretty well. I never did bad in any subject but I hate almost everything. Only few subjects fancy me. English, biology and psychology... These have nothing to do with numbers.
Lemme now tell you what math exam can do to you.
No matter how much you have prepared, you never really gain even a bit of confidence. This in turn, causes your whole body to tremble. You are likely to develop a splitting head ache. & a stomach ache too. Your internal organs suffer. The agony is too much that you start sweating. And all the unnecessary thoughts pop up in you mind just as you enter the exam hall... Have I revised that trig chapter properly? What do I do if I forget the formula to find the mean by step-deviation method? What if I fail?
One more thing that irritates me. The kid who has confidence. He walks in the exam hall just 5 mins before the exam and laughs at the jittery math-is-the-worst-subject category people. He is intimidating. At this point, even the tiniest bit of hope you had vanishes. Your mind is blank.
You have to attend the morning assembly. This cuts off even that precious 10 mins of your life-saving last min prep. That's it. You are gonna cry out loud 'mummy.... I wanna go home'
Assembly is over. The math teacher walks in with a daunting smile on her face. 'Students, I hope you have prepared well. You will be able to attend all the sums. All the best'. You will be able to.... sounds more like dare you miss any sum...
You are asked to keep your books and bag away and get ready for your death... that is, the exam...
You pray... You pray.. and You pray.... The invigilator hands over the question paper to you..
Then 2 things can happen.
If you have done enough good deeds in your previous birth, you will be able to answer most of the questions and sometimes, all.
OR
Exam = Funeral
Simple equation.
Dear math-haters, I know you all feel the same way. How you do the exam doesn't matter. The torture you go before that matters.
And math-lovers please don't intimidate us :))
