Confidence is crucial in everyone's life. It helps improve knowledge, cultivate a good personality, and make a positive impression on others. I'd like to share a time when I felt a surge of confidence in my studies. It was about a year after my final semester exams. My professor didn't organize a traditional exam, but instead, he opted for an oral assignment. This allowed him to easily assess each student's knowledge. He gave us two weeks to prepare, and I decided to make the most of it. I knew this was a valuable opportunity to improve my chances for the final exam, as a good score would help me achieve higher grades. I diligently created notes on short questions and their answers, including definitions. I also reviewed previous year's papers, as the professor had mentioned he would ask small, specific questions and definitions. After putting in a lot of effort, the day of the oral assignment arrived. The professor asked me numerous questions, almost all of which were covered in my notes. It was easy for me to answer them confidently. When the results came out, I was thrilled. I had predicted a score of 85% or higher, but I ended up getting a slightly lower score of 81%. Despite the small difference, I was still incredibly proud of myself and felt a huge boost in confidence.
