Are you feeling tired or stressed about exams? Then heres something to cheer you up! I always wanted to cheer people up like this. I have a way to help you be relaxed and happy. You could revise your books for 1 hour and take a rest for maybe like 30minutes or 50 minutes. That's the perfect method for you to study and relaxed at the same time. My P.3 teacher, Mrs. Ng. told us why we have to take exams. Here's our conversation:
Mrs.Ng: Class, I want to tell you about exams. You are always wondering why you are always taking exams am I correct? Well, we give you exams because we want to know how much you have learned.
Whole class: Ooohhhhh.
Mrs.Ng: You have to revise your books when exams are coming. It is important to you ok. I'm not the one who is sitting for the exam. You have to study hard and revise too. If you any-O-how do it, you will get a zero especially your maths and science. your science is the weakest in our class. You MUST learn your science regularly when exams are round the corner. If exam weeks come and you still did not revise, you will fail. Understand class?
Whole class: Yes!
That's the importance of exams. Please do read this conversation and you will understand soon enough. I hope you understand.

Umm... not meaning to be mean but the whole education system and that kind of teaches kids to parrot, not to think. I think it's more of remembering those things we've learned rather than being taught it. It's just the case of remembering the important points so when you're in the exam, you remember those things and you write the answers down.
That's why so many kids are not given the oppitunity to speak out their thoughts cos the adults have told them through out their lives to listen to the teacher and don't talk unless you're spoken to. I can tell you. We found it so hard to speak out our thoughts while trying to do the Gig on the Green project when the adults were going off on a completely different topic but us teenagers who were trying to organise this event couldn't find the courage to say "Exscuse me but can we focus on the actual thing for the event please?"
AP tests are serious business though. They're pretty much college level tests. Pretty much, if you pass it, you get some $600 or more. If you fail, you lose about $55. (Each exam).

What!? You get money for passing an exam!? Where do you live!? I am so jealous now!
Well, passing these exams gives you college credit, which is equivalent to that much money.
But these tests are no easy cookie though. It's timed like CRAZY (but still lasts 3.5 hours each) and contains usually 3 essays each test (which you must complete in an hour and 20 minutes), and those are graded inhumanely.
Please stay in your own country. America SUCKS. Hell, as soon as I can, I'm getting the hell outta here and moving to Germany. Everyone seems to think I'm joking, but we'll see about that when my mom gets too disabled to take care of my sister's family, my sister finds out that no one else in the family will take her in (due to privilages being abused by her), and I appear to have dropped off the face of the earth.
Until I make my celebrity reappearance, that is. XD But seriously, I'm moving to Germany whenever I work up the know how and resources. I'm changing my legal name and everything. (I'm changing my name as soon as I get my own house and can live in it. I'm changing my name, my phone number, anything and everything. I don't want to EVER talk to nor see those people ever again.)
Exams. Yeah. Exams suck.
Tech: Way to stay on topic. Me: Shut it.

I don't think America is that bad. Certainly not a place full of joy and wonderment, but still pretty solid relative to most other countries in the world. I will probably stay here. If I do move out of the country, it'll probably be to Canada.
