Exceeding Expectations

January 7, 2015 by Charl 2 Comments

Yesterday I sat my Literacy and Numeracy QTS Skills test…

I have never had very much faith in my Mathematical ability, it is something I have also been very pessimistic towards. I have and still don’t particularly enjoy Maths, a lot of it just doesn’t make any sense in my little brain.

So I’m sure it comes as no surprise to you, if I tell you I was dreading sitting this test, that in my head I was inevitably set to fail.

In fact I felt like this little fish, taking the biggest leap of faith, for something I was so desperate to pass! 

After an hours worth of shaking, sweaty palms, and several mental notes to get a grip I press THE END button. I have never felt so sick, and never at that moment wanted to pass something so badly…

After a painful hour wait (in real time it was only 5 minutes)  I got passed the envelope to tell me that, exceeding every expectation I had, that I HAD PASSED. Elation is the only emotion I felt, along with the biggest slice of relief!

One major hurdle cleared, just a degree to pass now!

2015 is going to be one hell of a year!
