Well, I'm the kind of person who usually doesn't like being late. Today, I'd like to talk about a time when I was late, which was a couple of months ago when I was a candidate for the HSE board exam. At that time, it was a mathematics final exam day. First of all, I got up early in the morning, around 6 a.m. After that, I had my breakfast, and sometimes I would read. Finally, I went to the college hall around 9 a.m., but our exam time was at 9:30 a.m. When I went to the homeroom, I realized I had forgotten my registration card, which is important because every teacher checks this registration card or roll number. After that, I went back home to get this card. I returned to the hall around 15 minutes later, and at that time, the security and candidates were undergoing a small investigation. When I got to the hall, I realized I was about 25 minutes late for the exam. Finally, I thought it was a disappointing situation for me, and I will never forget it. I believe everyone prefers to be on time, especially on the night before the exam, as it helps to reduce stress and anxiety.
