I'm only anticipating a score for one subject, so it's not AS daunting as receiving my ATAR, but I'm telling you.. I'm soooo freaking scared! When someone brings it up my heart starts beating like crazy and I feel like there are elephants stomping around on my stomach (on the contrary to butterflies).
I'm not even sure why I'm so scared! My parents are not the pressuring type, and they seriously don't care what I get as long as I've given it my best shot (or so that's what they tell me). But I feel like I need to do the best I can to make them happy, kind of like to pay them back for everything they've done for me.
On top of that, so many of my friends and classmates are pressuring me without even realising, predicting that I'll get some crazy-ass score that even I'd never imagine getting, so what if I don't get what they expect me to get?
Plus, there's my psych teacher, who's amaazing and I feel like I need to do well as his top student to make him proud and in a way pay him back for all his time and effort.
More importantly, I need to try and meet my own standards. Initially, I only wanted to get an average, 30-ish study score, but as the year progressed I kept increasing that goal, and then lowering it again after I did the unit 4 exam..
I just don't know what I'll be pleased with anymore.. I put so much effort into psych so hopefully it pays off. I guess anything above 40+ would be amazing, lets hope it works out! :S
Good luck everyone else!
