It all started on the 4th of February – a lovely Friday afternoon. I had reached home safely and was savoring my favourite food. I was in an unusually peaceful state of mind. After finishing my delicacy, I went to my room to check my phone and behold….I saw one of my WhatsApp groups flooded with messages. I immediately checked the group to see what the chaos was about. Within seconds, the peacefulness I was experiencing turned into sheer horror. I wouldn’t really say horror; I had mixed emotions- excitement, self-doubt, but also confidence, and nervousness — all at once. I am sure most of us were experiencing the same range of emotions.
Fast forward to Monday morning, 8:28 a.m. Everyone had the CISCE website open on their devices. The adrenaline rush was visible on everyone’s faces. Students were showing their restlessness in different ways – shaking their feet vigorously, tapping their fingers on the table, cracking their knuckles and breathing heavily. An anxiety-induced countdown started 10 seconds before the clock struck 8:30, at which point everyone frantically typed in their information to get their results.
Phew! It was a relief and a delight to see that a lot of students in Grade 10 had a smile on their faces upon seeing their reports. We definitely did ace these exams! Semester 2, we’re ready for you!
