Well, without wanting to break the cycle of neglect and despondency, I thought an update was in order to the effect that I passed the exam I had booked for today.
The passing mark was 790 out of 1000, I got 946. However you get 300 just for turning up, which possibly says something for some of the examinees.
The guy sat next to me was really irritating. One of those types that just can’t help but make noise all the time – sighing, snorting, coughing… I felt like telling him to STFU, but he finished about 20 minutes after I started, so it wasn’t too bad.
Well, now for the next exam, after a few days of chilling out, maybe play some of those long neglected games (some of them are still in cellophane).
Now this is rare - my reserved train seat has a table!
