Well I finished the first four tests in the GED examination, Math, Writing/Essay, Science, and Social Studies respectively in that order. I'd like to think that I did well in all areas but I'm still a little uncertain about the math with me not being to good at it and all. But as far as the Writing/Essay goes I did have a little trouble with the essay part in that I mistakenly wrote it without doing a rough draft in pencil. I ended up being unsatisfied with the first two paragraphs and got frustrated because I couldn't erase what I wrote down with it being it pen. I CANNOT stand using pens and I have never liked them! NEVER! But anyways, I got a second chance and was allowed to continue the essay by crossing out the first two paragraphs and doing it over. This time with a rough draft in pencil. I only wrote three paragraphs instead my usual four but they were fairly long to make up for it. So despite my hand hurting and me having carpal I managed to write the actual essay which I think was pretty good. As far as the multiple choice... no contest really. I'd say I only got two, one, or none wrong out of fifty questions. But moving on to the other areas. In Science and Social Studies, which I did back to back [ 100 questions in all ] I am almost certain I got just a handful wrong out of those individual fifty. The last test which I must take today in just a few hours is also fifty and for me is also no contest. It's Language Arts: Reading and I'm very good in subjects that involve reading since I can read and write fairly well. So it's in the bag. The only part I'm concerned about is the math. It will probably be my downfall in this whole thing but I'm hoping that just this once I can pass a math test without having to do it several times over.
