results.
results.
got back the last of my papers ytd. i could have done better, but on account on the fact that my gpa made the biggest jump from myas to eyas ever, i guess i'm content.
disclaimer: all these are just what i calculated based on midyear's progress report and what i know of the weightages for each subject, and they're before any form of moderation, so they're still subject to change.
4.0's: bio/phys/math [double weightage]
3.6's: ss/eng/chem
3.2: chinese
2.8: lit
average gpa: (4x4.0 + 3x3.6 + 3.2 + 2.8) / 9
which equals 3.64.
not bad, really. it's my highest average gpa ever [not counting last year's 3.69 because it was 3.60 before moderation] and like i said, the biggest jump from my midyear gpa ever. i thought last year's jump from 3.38 to 3.60 was miraculous already; but that's cuz my secone gpa only jumped uhh a little bit. i can't rmb how much, but it was a small bit. and my sectwo gpa stayed constant, so. haha but this year! 3.29 to 3.64; yayy.
and i'm glad to add that none of my gpas have dropped from midyears; meaning everything either stayed the same or improved :D
okay let's analyse.
good ones:
- math! whee all my tests [and the pt] this year except for mya got 4.0 grades, so this was expected; but still, not bad, even if i say so myself xD sustained performances are the best.
- bio. i'm really happy for second sem's performance, cuz first sem was a 71 only. for second sem, spa was full marks, and eya was 43/50, which was awesome because i really wasn't expecting a 4.0 for bio, to be honest(:
- ss. haha barely scraped a 71 for this, but i'm happy because i managed to sustain last year's 3.6. this one improved up from 68 [or a 3.2] in midyears. okay it's not a lot, but considering that my grade for last year's pt was really unexpectedly good and helped majorly towards last year's gpa, and this year's grades are only average, it's good enough for me.
- lit. yes, even though it was the worst of my gpas and they're not moderating it, but i'm happy with my second sem's performance. i failed lit for first sem, and my eya's unseen text essay was the best i've ever written in my four years of taking lit. 21/25; for once >80% wheee. add that to the 14/25 for the short story essay, and 35/50's good enough for me. good enough to drag up my 1.6 to a 2.8, at least. awesome.
okay-ish ones:
- phys. okay first sem was good; 87%. but somehow i screwed up the eya. silly things like missing out on key phrases etc ><>
- english. just missed a 4.0 for this one; and i know it's good enough, but i still think i could have done better for eyas cuz my vocab section was phail ><>
can do better ones:
- chem. my pet subject, and it only gets a dismal 2.8 for first sem. i cry. drat both spas; and my midyear marks were...just terrible. blehhh. moral of the story; read the qn at least twice so you don't miss out on any marks and screw the whole spa up / just anyhow crap up some logical answer for qns that you don't know how to answer; even haphazard guesses get sympathy marks sometimes. and even second sem wasn't up to standard; the eya paper was so darned easy and i only get 61/70. and as shinyi points out, she's been thrashing me for chem the whole year. what on earth has happened to my chem! ):
- chinese. hahh. nothing's ever been as bad as chinese, except maybe chem? srsly la eya summary 10.5/20 wth -.- and the main paper's performance arghhh. at least my zuowen was okay; 45/70. that's what i've been getting the whole of this year. even my gonghan has failed me; what usually gets 17 only fetched a 14. bahh. better study super hard for chinese o levels. soon.
yep that's it. good ones and bad ones, but overall still decent! although i could have done better. but oh well. people would tell me i should stop complaining because my average is after all, above 3.6. and yes that means i met my goal for this year! because after last year's luck i so wanted to get >3.6 before moderation. thank God.
