3: Test Reflection

This term's test was a failure. I scored 24/40. This is a B4. Last term, I scored 29.5/40 and got and A1. Term 1, I got 30.5/40, also an A1. This term was a big drop from the previous two terms. The section in which we were supposed to match things to their descriptions, I did not get a single one out of five right. Furthermore, I feel that even the questions for the test could have been phrased better. There was one question in which the answer was 'green', but my answer was'blue' and 'yellow. I do know that this two colours mixed becomes green, but I am still sore over that mistake. I do not know, but is it definite that anything with these two colours will mix and become green? For all we know, not all dyes mix with each other. So, I do not understand why 'blue' and 'yellow' cannot be accepted. Another question that was confusing was the last question. All of my classmates answers were in paragraph form, as well as mine. However, the model answer given was in point form! I really do not understand why the question could not have made it clearer that we could have written in point form for our answer. If the question had written that simple statement, then we could have saved a lot of time and checked our work.To me, this test was a disappointing test for me and will pull my grades down, but I still do feel that the questions could have been clearer.
