Ouch

Ouch.

I just took an early morning online test for PSY 410... and I have to say....

OUCH.

I'm pretty sure this knocks away all my chances to get an A. I just felt really crummy after I had finished.
Sigh, I guess I'll look at the bottom line. All I really need is at least a C in this class to pass.  

I thought I had the material down, but the teacher asked the questions in a different way by relating to things such as mentalism, which the book never covered! I understood exactly what the question wanted... and I even knew the answer! The problem was that I didn't know how to answer it.

I can't wait to get this class over with. It's the first time I've tried so hard and yet failed so miserably to provide the right answers. No wonder every psychology student I've talked to hates this class. I guess I knew this was a hard class when I was going in to it, but it's hard for a different reason than I expected.

It's impossible to do well just by reading the book and studying. There are things that you need to know outside the book that are -critical- to doing well. The funny thing is, you don't know what those things are until it hits you on the test.

I guess this effectively decreases my motivation to even try to get a good grade now.
-_-

Rawr.

But I shouldn't let that ruin my day. I should go back to bed for a bit and relax. Maybe I can forget about this test for now.

What that "unique effect" is, I'm still trying to figure out.
