And so the first of my ordeals begin. I'm surprisingly chilled, although that's no indication of how I will be when I open the paper. Why does a maths paper threaten to illicit a responce which should probably be reserved to fighting large mythical beasts? It can in no way physically harm me and the outcome determines only which institution I study at. I'm not being sarcastic either, we attach massive prices and consequences to tests and other such assessments. It's like I'm telling myself that if I don't go to Cambridge I will be an utter failure. In reality if I get only a level 2 I'll go to Warwick. Terrible fate. If I fail that ill end up at rubbish unis like Manchester or imperial. Perhaps I should see step as an opportunity, very few people even get Cambridge offers. It's a great privilege to sit this paper. Yeah right...
