SA1 Exams, so stressful

I hate exams. I wonder who likes exams, if someones likes I think something must be wrong with that person. There is nothing useful about exams. They only gives us stress, disturbance, we cannot play anything at all.

Oral exams : when waiting for my turn, it's like waiting for my turn for injection. So bad, I was the 3rd last. During oral, I was so nervous that I stumbled at least 10 words.

Listening : My hearing had something wrong. The English one - all the options were so close. The Chinese one - I didn't understand some parts, and the options were also so close.

Compo exams : We were FORCED to write AT LEAST 3 PAGES. It's like impossible to write in 1 hour. Then still must check 3 pages for grammar mistakes. Write 1 page already took half an hour when practising. I will go mad if I must write 3 pages in 1 hr only. Mother tongue, even worse. Every sentence must check at least 1 word in the dictionary. Others can use ming ti or kan tu, but I don't know ming ti, so must choose kan tu. And less than 1h to write!

English : The 2nd worst subject. My teacher said close passage cannot be taught, comprehension cannot be taught, vocab also cannot be taught, so we must read books. Only grammar and synthesis can be learnt. So there is nothing to learn for English.

Maths : There is nothing to learn. It is easy but I can be careless. Really really very very very very very very very very very careless. Even the super extremely easy question I may get it wrong.

Science : Too many big scientific words. Cannot memorise but can common sense. Science is another subject that I don't have to learn. However, the open ended questions are so... The answers I write can quite logical, but they can mark me wrong, it's so cheating.

Chinese : My worst subject ever. Must memorise the strokes, the words, the meaning, and their pei ci. English has only 1 graphic stimulus which is very easy, 1 MCQ and 1 OE comprehention. Chinese has 1 graphic stimulus 2 MCQ and 2 OE comprehension. Sometimes it has 3 OE.
