Although I didn't perform at my best, I did what I could under nervousness and pressure. Because of my nervousness, I didn't do my teacher and myself justice. At one point during the exam, I had to put my hand on my chest to stop my heart from jumping out!I wish I could play as well under pressure as I play at home. This is something I need to work on.
My best guess with the result is a C+, and if lucky, a B. In any case, I think I will pass.
Moving on, my final Graded exam next year, GRADE 8! Let's start practice for it now!
Is there a soul on earth who doesn't feel the same? : )
Let us know what grade you got.
