I would like to mention a difficult time when I was preparing for my exams. It was at UNT, and it was a week ago. I was aware that this exam was taken by all 11th-grade students, but I was really shocked when I realized that these exams took up my entire day and I had to give all my attention and focus to learn some unnecessary information. Furthermore, it was really terrifying to think that I might get a bad score or even fail this exam. Fortunately, I passed, and my score was excellent. I am very proud of myself because I cried a lot during the preparation, and it was one of the busiest times I have ever had. I was not able to scroll through social media or even hold my phone to text someone.
