Wanna know my promo results? hahaha. It's not very fantastic, but I've got a cool acronym as a consolation though.

The MacDonald days paid off and I've no regrets obtaining these results. I've tried my very best for the past few months and if it's still a U, it's a U.

First paper I got back on Tuesday morning was H1 Maths. Among the 4 department tests and the Midyears, I've never passed them before. Quoting all single digits for the tests, hur. Sooo, I was hoping for a pass when I received my paper. When I opened it, it showed 32/60. At that moment I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Yes, this is my first pass for the year, but what was going through my mind was also the possibility of my D degrading to a fail grade after adding my horrible midyear and tests results. So it was a mix of feelings there, my facial expression was between a smile and a frown, it's basically this ._.

Next was Chemistry. After all those hard work that I put in the mindmaps, after falling in love with Organic Chemistry, after doing up notes to refresh my memory, my Chemistry grades just refuses to get any better. 29.5/100. Pathetic. It's a confirmed U for Chem.

History! This was the subject that I thought I would score relatively well as I memorised my notes well, regurgitated out the info + some analysis on the spot, I even wrote a 3 page essay for the first time this year! (yes I know there are others who can write 4 to 5. but forgive me 3-page is an achievement for me) In the end I got a frigging 46/100. It's an E, but it's super ridiculous. No one in my class for history got higher than an E, we then realise the papers were marked by the trainee teacher, as the handwriting was distinctly different. We then started debating on how can the teachers let the trainee take over the marking of our promo papers. It's not that they can't do that, but I'm surprised there isn't any indication of cross-checking from the main teachers. Some of us got grades that they shouldn't even get, so all of us got quite fussed up over it.

GP next! 41/100. S. Nothing much to say for GP really. It's language and the skills afterall.

Econs was a surprise. 41/80, a D. The first time I passed Econs was the monopoly essay test, but this is better, I mean, it's an improvement. Never would I expect myself to get a D for Econs. What's more consoling is that my marks are finally in the range of the top few in class.

Oh one more. Chinese promos. But no use la. Chinese A lvls 1 week away. I got a C. Another first, a good warm up before getting all my H1 and H2s.

There you have it. My promo results.
Econs - D
Chem - U
Maths - D
History-E
GP - S !

Bryan told me that I've met the promotion criteria, it's a relief. Hopefully my midyears won't affect much. :)
