10 Thoughts That Go Through Your Mind During A Test

We've all been there; we go to take a test and all of the sudden a complete mental freak out happens. Here are ten thoughts that have crossed your mind when taking a test:

1. *Opens test paper and sees page, after page, after page*

Omg. Omg. Omg. I’m going to die. Why did this man make this test into a book? He wants to punish us all and the semester barely even started. There’s nothing like glancing at that first question and thinking that the whole test is going to be that hard. Is this written in another language? Was I sitting in the wrong class these last six weeks? Is everyone else freaking out, too? This is not a good way to begin a test, my friend.


2. Am I the only one who finds this so fucking hard?

Does that mean I’m stupid?


3. I really should have studied more

But instead, I watched some Netflix and took a nap... Now I'm rethinking that nap... Was it worth it?!


4. This is painful and I want to cry.

Okay, breathe, momma ain’t raised a punk. You got this. Deep breaths. Deep breaths. When you’re in the middle of a rough test, it can be easy to spin out of control and think your whole life hangs on the precipice of this test. Of course, there’s no need to be dramatic.


5. *Skips question*

Okay, I'll just come back to that one... Maybe.... When you’re anxious, your brain gets preoccupied with nervous thoughts and can’t read and comprehend at the same time. If only there was an "on-switch" you could hit so that your eyes and brain would start communicating.


6. No, let’s give this a shot.

This one doesn't look too hard! Totalianarism? What is that?! Maybe I should put C, I haven't done that in awhile..


7. OK, I’ve filled out most of the pages

I’m making progress. Maybe I won't fail this test. Ha


8. Every single thing on this page must be wrong.

Yeah, that's what it is. I never learned any of this!


9. *Begins to inner cry*

I should just become a stripper. Who needs college anyway? Again dramatic.


10. RIP to my GPA

Oh, well this test sucked. My GPA is down the toilet. Sorry ma.


Even if you’ve prepared for a test more than any other one in your life, made sticky notes and took the practice quiz, you’ll still run into problems. Some professors are easier than others when it comes to giving out tests and quizzes because they either have set schedules or are godly people who understand the stress of test-taking and don’t want to instill that kind of stress into the brains of tender, young, students. If you have a professor like this, bless your heart. You probably won't have that professor to be honest.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
