NINTH BOARD experience
Before my first board exam, I was worried about it because it was my first board. I struggle a lot with my board exams. I was such a girl who takes tension about every exam. So firstly, we went to the cameraman shop, where he took pictures of us one by one, then printed them. Next, we attached a photocopy of our picture on the slip of the board exam. After that, I studied a lot. It means I didn’t get complete sleep. I worked hard in those days, feeling tension, nervousness, and anxiety about my exam. I had heard a lot of weird things about the board exam. The paper will be difficult, and the and the board team will suddenly appear in the exam. They will check your papers, purses, pouches, bags, etc. These things were making me nervous. That is how I will give an exam in such a situation. I had also heard that the paper would be out, of course. You will not give an exam without mobile devices. But these things are not true. It is all in your mind. It is normal to feel tension and anxiety, but you have to be brave. If you will learn every single thing and important points from your syllabus, then there is nothing to worry about. In those days, I did smart studying. Now you will think that smart study means learning important things and points from the syllabus. Don’t study everything; you have to focus on the main topics. I studied from almost a guess paper, and the questions that I studied from a guess paper, fortunately, came in my exam. And if you want to do smart study, then prepare yourself with a guess paper. I also studied from past papers, like when I was in 9th grade, so I took the past papers of board last year, which also helped me a lot. The days of exams were coming fast, and I had no idea how much I was preparing for my exams. I studied all my subjects from guess paper. The next day, I bought some exam materials like a clipboard and pens. My paper was due the next day. I was very nervous about the exam. But thanks to my teacher, who supported us, that you all can do it best. He said to just focus on your studies. At night, I was not sleepy due to my exams. I studied my syllabus at about 1 or 2 a.m. It was happening this morning. And then I felt sleepy. The next day, I woke up at 6:00 o'clock, and then I again remembered my syllabus. Then I took a shower. I was feeling shivering on summer days. After that, I took breakfast and got ready to go to the to the center. I took my materials and went to the center.. After reaching the center, I was very confused because there were so many girls in school uniforms who were looking at me continuously. At that time, I was wondering why they were looking at me like this. Any way, I made a new friend; she told me about Center, and she was also a nice girl. The bell rang, and all the girls went upstairs. I also followed them and reached my class. At 9 o'clock, I got a paper in English. And guess what? It was very simple and easy. I did my paper best because I studied from guess papers. For one week, I did this same thing, and now my papers are finished. I was very happy. I was feeling that now I am free, I can play, and I can do anything. From this, I learned one thing: be independent, not dependent. It was a nice experience.
