One embarrassing moment I would never forget took place when I was in
9th grade. For my final written exam, I received the exam schedule 10 days
before the exam. We had 8 subjects and the exam for each subject was lined
up within a span of 10 days with 2 holidays. For the 3rd exam, we had a
holiday, the day before the exam. I started studying Social Sciences. The
exam day arrived and I entered the classroom.
I was all prepared to take an exam on Social Sciences. The supervisor
entered the classroom and started distributing the answer sheets at first. On
the answer sheet, it was printed ‘Mathematics Exam Answer Sheet’. I was
shocked and confirmed with the supervisor and the student on the desk
behind me. Both confirmed that the exam schedule that day we had
Mathematics exam.
The moment brought me a lot of embarrassment in the classroom. Because
of my carelessness, I was going to write an exam for which I had not
prepared. I was terrified and requested the supervisor to give me some time
to brush up on Mathematics theories before I start. He denied my request
as that was against the college’s exam policy. I was left with no choice
but to write the paper knowing that I am going to fail. Fortunately, I had
prepared thoroughly for Mathematics in the previous months because of
which I managed to pass the Mathematics exam.
Today, after years, I and my friends laugh at this embarrassing incident and
they still make fun of me for putting myself into such an awkward
situation.
