Exam Metacognition

One Day can Make the Difference
“You just gotta keep going and fighting for everything, and one day you'll get to where you want.”
~ Naomi Osaka
Most of the time during the exam I felt lost as though I was in a massive forest and did not know which way was out. The exam process started out tough for me because I was not sure how many different layers of assignments there were.
As the exam work went on and I did more and more of it I realized more clearly which assignments I had to do. Now at the end of the exam I have all of the assignments and none of the assignments that I’m not supposed to do. Starting the exam I felt like there was not an entry point for me to start working. Then in the midst of the exam I did not have the view I have now because I was just doing the work mindlessly. Looking back on the exam period I have a clear vision of what I did and why I did it. If I were to do the exam again there are two things I would change. The first is doing all of the work one day earlier because I had to finish my reflection the night before the exam. The second thing I would change is focusing for longer periods of time because I felt like I could not focus for long while reading.
